New 22RE

[D'Animal]

I'm doing the R&R of the 22RE in my 87y/o neighbors 1988 Toyota 1-Ton truck.

For those of you with 22RE's, I feel so sorry for you. The Alt and Starter as burried in these things.


Buy something with a 2F and you will be so much happier.

Here is what I started with.

Random photos at the start.

The spare parts in the oil pan.

Please note the hole in the oil pan in the lower right hand corner of the bottom picture.

Oil pump strainer screen.

It was caked with carbon so bad I had to use a stiff wire brush and a can of brake clean to clean it out. I had to wiggle the wires into the screen to clean it.

I did not want to torch it since I do not know how well this metal hold up to the heat.

Inside of Valve Cover.


Easy Off Oven cleaner and a 3,000psi Hot Water Pressure washer made cleaning it possible.

Rig was full of Black Widows. They did not offer any assistance at all.

New 22RE still in the wrapper.

I hauled this in my FJ60 so technically I can say I put a 22RE in a 60 series.

More of the new 22RE.

Bringing the BLING!

Yep, I was bored and out of parts.

 

[D'Animal]

Bling!

Somebody got a little crazy with the RTV. That big bead was on the inside and outside of the pan. They even used a pan gasket. you can see some of this in the top picture of post #5.

Neighbor man had the pan gasket replaced about 60 miles before the con rod bolt came loose.

Any tricks on getting this bolt out without removing the camshaft?


What a PITA!

Man! that old motor is a mess.... just remove the dizzy drive gear to get at that lill bolt.... who's the re-builder of the replacement mill?... Most rebuilt 22s come with the front timing cover included, or they should highly recommend replacing it being its the rear portion of the oil pump, plus some want to avoid the risk of the cover having hair line cracks in the casting that might allow coolant to enter the crankcase..... surely they supplied a new oil pump?... anyway, Nice work you got going there....

Thanks.

No new cover. No new oil pump.

MeGolfer and brother of MeGolfer (sorry, don't know his MUD name) came out to help me stab the engine in. I was changing oil in the neighbors truck when they arrived. It took them all of 10 minutes to line it up in the 5 speed and get it in place.


They met the owner of this truck.


Big Thanks!

Here is how it looks now.

Wife said it was dinner time so I had to take a break for a bit.
