I have swapped engines and transmissions and am running into some questions for someone that has done it. Please let me know if you have.

What about the problem with the connector and transmission wires - totally different on the 7A-FE? - hence the reason I changed the wiring harness.

What wires and what do you mean? The only wires attached to the trannies are the reverse light, neutral safety switch (I'm not even sure if toyota intergrates this into the tranny), and speedo sensor. At the worse... you do some splicing. Why not use your old tranny? This post has been edited by Kwanza26: Aug 3, 2006 - 11:52 PM -------------------- "It's ok to be naked girl... I'm an artist!"
