Car Forum / Toyota / Toyota Trucks / August 2007Transmission Mount Question
I'm getting ready to change the transmission mount on my '87 4runner with a manual transmission. The big center nut on the new mount is loose, and I can't find specs on what this should be torqued to. Also, I assume this should have loctite on it. It looks almost impossible to tighten it once the mount is in place. Thanks for any info. Hey! Got one for an 86 pickup here and it looks like the bolt is only there to check any torque motion from the engine-transmission. The mount seats from the weight of the transmission-transfer. I'd put some thread lock on the bolt and tighten the nut firmly. ZaXXoN >I'm getting ready to change the transmission mount on my '87 4runner >with a manual transmission.

Only getting 21 years out of a mount? :) Had to be a manual tranny mount too because I had spare motor mounts and automatic mounts laying around. Speaking of stuff laying around, I have this 20R engine laying around and was wondering if that bolts up to a 85 4runner transmission? >>I'm getting ready to change the transmission mount on my '87 4runner >>with a manual transmission.

I'm restoring an 86 turbo 4x4 4 22R-TE here with 270k on the OD. It's a CA truck that's never been in a crash. Recently found it's replacement drivetrain on craigslist. 72k on the new find. I'm tempted to restore both trucks. >Speaking of stuff laying around, I have this 20R engine laying around >and was wondering if that bolts up to a 85 4runner transmission? I'm not familiar with this motor but have heard that it's evan more reliable than the 22R family. Instead of being built like a tank, it's built like a battleship! Dump a message up here and i'm sure someone will jump in with an answer. ZaXXoN >>>I'm getting ready to change the transmission mount on my '87 4runner >>>with a manual transmission.

After all these years, the camper part is shot. I may just turn it into a flatbed truck. That depends on how chopped up I find the rear window area after I rip the camper off of it. >>>>I'm getting ready to change the transmission mount on my '87 4runner >>>>with a manual transmission.
