I am looking at this build for myself in Washington. I know that your post was almost five years ago, but I would very much like to see how it turned out. I am looking at taking a 1988 Trooper and stripping the motor and transmission out. And then replacing them with the 4jb1-t matched to a MUA5 transmission/transfer case combination. I am looking at this build for mainly one reason. I want the fuel economy that a diesel offers combined with the 4x4 for when needed for weather or hunting. I am most interested in what kind of modifications did you have to make I.E. motor mount welding ect.? I am really hoping that your project went well, and that you are still involved with this board so that you can see this reply. I look forward to hearing from you or anyone that can help.
