Featuring an exact 2367cc displacement, this Toyota 22RE 2.4L Remanufactured Engine restores rugged trail reliability. Production technicians align-hone heavy-duty cast iron block casting 22R to establish exact crankshaft alignment across the chassis envelope. This 2.4L 4-Cylinder 8-Valve SOHC powerplant requires careful mechanical rocker arm lash adjustment prior to initial startup to avoid premature valvetrain scuffing.

Thick-wall cast iron block casting 22R features six-boss motor mount pads and houses a counterbalanced forged steel crankshaft micro-polished to 0.0003in runout. Cast aluminum SOHC cylinder heads feature twenty intake threaded holes, round exhaust ports, and flat-top water pump pads. Hypereutectic aluminum pistons pair with hardened steel wrist pins inside plateau-honed parent bores. Crated long block weight measures 250 lbs with crated envelope dimensions of 36in length by 36in width by 36in height and holds 4.5 quarts oil.

Key Features of Toyota 22RE

Four-wheel-drive specialists buy Toyota 22RE remanufactured engine assemblies to preserve vintage rock-crawling torque and trail durability. Mechanics install this remanufactured 2.4L long block replacement to end head gasket blowouts.

- Cast iron block casting 22R receives CNC surface decking to guarantee proper multi-layer head gasket compression.
- Six-boss engine mount castings provide rigid mounting points for heavy off-road chassis torsion loads.
- Aluminum cylinder head castings receive precision three-angle valve seat cutting to maintain 0.001in valve runout.
- Forged steel crankshaft journals receive micro-polishing to achieve an eight Ra finish across all journals.
- Tri-metal rod bearings maintain 0.0012in oil clearance to protect rod journals under severe low-RPM crawling.
- Diamond plateau cylinder bore honing produces a crosshatch pattern that seats moly rings within 500 miles.
- Single row timing chain sets feature upgraded steel-backed guide rails to eliminate timing chain cover wear.

Dyno Load Precision Machining Tolerances

Dynamometer bench tests confirm 105 HP at 4,800 RPM alongside 137 ft-lbs torque output at 2,800 RPM under continuous testing resistance. Machine shop craftsmen maintain crankshaft journal runout below 0.0003in TIR while connecting rod oil clearance measures 0.0012in. CNC cylinder bore honing holds piston-to-bore clearance at 0.0012in to prevent piston slap. Hot engine oil pressure sustains 55 PSI at 3,000 RPM with engine coolant stabilized at 190°F. Precision compression tests show balanced readings between 175 PSI and 180 PSI across all four cylinders.

Vehicle Fitment Drivetrain Guide

This remanufactured engine fits 8/1982 to 8/1984 Toyota Pickup, 1984 Toyota 4Runner, and 1983 to 1984 Toyota Celica models equipped with the 2.4L 2367cc SOHC engine VIN Code R. It matches 5-Speed Manual or 4-Speed Automatic transmissions across 4WD and RWD drivelines. This long block does not fit late 1985 to 1995 laser-block short deck 22RE engines, pear-shaped exhaust port heads, turbocharged 22R-TE configurations, or earlier 20R passenger cars.

Installation Protocol Service Requirements

Inspect carburetor baseplates or electronic injection manifolds and clean water pump mounting surfaces before bolting the block to chassis mounts. Never run this naturally aspirated rock-crawler engine in forced-induction sand buggies without upgraded forged pistons or secondary oil filtration. Mechanics must verify mechanical fuel pump pushrod clearance before startup.

- Pressure-prime the oil pump with a drill-driven shaft tool before turning the key to avoid cam lobe wipe.
- Drain break-in motor oil and install a high-micron oil filter at 500 miles to remove break-in debris.
- Re-check valve lash clearances and retorque cylinder head bolts at the 3,000 miles service interval.
