Be warned though, there are a couple of different sizes depending on what year model the engine is. Measure the pin size on the crank. if it is 44.00mm then it is probably a pre 88 engine if it is smaller then it is a post 88 engine. (yep they got smaller) Just sit the front up on stands, Support the engine with a crane or block of wood across the strut towers and a chain. Then drop the crossmember and pull off the bearing caps. The hardest part is getting new bearings. Toyota at Castle Hill (Sydney) can get them at about $44 a pair. Lander Toyota a little cheaper but they stuffed me around with the parts. Look for your local toyota import specialists and see what you can get. As far as I know there isn't anything else that will fit off the shelf. Oh and expect a few weeks delivery time. If the crank measures round and is not too beaten up then just chuck in some new bearings. If it is looking like the crank is damaged then I would chuck in another engine. By the sounds of things, it might be a good time to consider some extra sump capacity while it's off. Best of luck. Anthony [Report message to a moderator]
