4 dr Taco info .. years avail etc

[T Y L E R]

...Hey guys ,

Looking for some info here for Eron . She has shown an interest in a 4 door taco . Ideally a used one , perhaps a '01 or so . She has these stipulations :

• 4x4
• 4 door/crew cab
• stick
• V6

We checked on a few trader sites and such , but it's hard to know what years , for instance , a stick was available . Can anyone tell us what years we'll find the configuration named above ?

Thanx !

All Double Cabs come with the auto trans. My wife drives an 03, she had to settle for the slush box, as she too prefers a manual transmission.

Well to be specific, all 4-dr Tacoma's sold in the US only come with autos...I know other places got them, I don't know if the Tacoma name is only US and therefore only autos...or how it compares to the Hilux...

I too looked at the 4dr Tacoma closely and if it came in a stick, I'd be in one now, and not have my Cruiser, so guess it's good they are only autos..

I think a bobbed 4-dr Tacoma would look sweet, the bed is already short, so then making it smaller, almost cooler size...lift, 35's, crawler box, even with a auto it's be pretty sweet...

Taco is US made, so the similar hilux's from tiawan or where ever they are made now have much better build quality than the taco.

Yep, all auto in us. 2001 is first year for the 4 dr Tacoma.

...Appreciate the info guys . She wants a smaller truck , so unfortunately she might jump brands to get what config is right for her .

...It would probably be wise of us to ask what out there might .... might approximate the rig outlined above ? ???

TIA

This is an 02 Tacoma. There will be a redesign Tacoma as an 05 model. It will be a midsize truck. :-\

So far, I know of one person who has swapped the 5spd into their Double Cab.

"Just a transmission from junk yard $700(2001 taco w/34,000miles)
Pedal assy. $35
master cyl. $20
slave cyl. $20
clutch $195
flywheel $25
interior parts from Toyota $350 DAMN!
Trans mount $20
I think that was it. The hardest part was going through the wiring to make the truck start. Now I just have to go back through the wires and get the check engine and 4x4 light out. Oh yah the drive lines worked too! Way cool cause I just had them made 4 months ago
It is going to save me money. I have smoked 3 autos in one year so never again I hope."
