I'm considering the purchase of a replacement motor for my 97 Tacoma 4x4. I've never done anything like this before. Especially the 3.4 like this truck has. I've no need to rush my purchase but certainly am leaning toward it.
My question I guess is this 1] JDM engine depot, out of Dallas seems to have the best price, on the lowest guaranteed miles engine. BUT, if I'm understanding them right, the motors are shipped from Japan and are right hand drive engines. SO, their motors come with but not warrantied alternators, starters and other various external parts "but some appear to be on the opposite side of my motor up front". WILL I BE ABLE TO JUST SWAP THOSE BRACKETS TO THE OTHER SIDE? [sorry I hit the caps by accident]. 2] has anyone here ever used JDM? and what was your experience with them?
