You will find it hard to get parts for a 18RG.
Get and fit a 1G-GZE, its great for grunt down low and that is a Hilux's forte .....

With the correct engine brackets and new 18R rubber mounts, my GZE motor bolted onto my existing crossmember, no cutting, welding, custom brackets etc.
That has to be easier than hanging a snail off an 18RG.....

S'funny that, it was my own post actually, so I plagarised myself......go figure !
And you will need a W55/57/58 gearbox and G series bellhousing to go with the 1G engine, the W50 from the 18RG will not bolt up.
