    Hey Dudes, if you're 3.slow took a dump on you, maybe with the very common head gasket failure or you're just tired of how underpowered it is, an upgrade to the 3.4 liter engine that was used in the 3rd Gen 4runners might be something you are interested in doing.

    We put together a 4 Part video series showing people how to accomplish this fairly involved swap. This is Part 1, where we show you how to remove the 3.0 engine out of your rig.

    Hope you guys enjoy it.
