It'll probably fit in your jeep, but it won't fit in your Surf. -
lol @ Vince.
What engine? there are lots of LC engines.
If you have all the wiring looms and ECU, and it physically fits then most things are possible.
First thing to check is what side the front prop is, if its on the otherside to the Surf, then you can't use gearbox t/case easily, and I doubt an 06 engine will bolt up a Surf autobox.
Then its lots of fit/check/remove/adjust/fit/check/remove/....welding..wiring...swearing ... till you get it to work.
Unless you can find someone who fitted one before, then you're making it up as you go along.4x4toys.co.uk - Keeping you on and off the road...Comment

Comparing a 2.4 surf to a D4D hilux is like comparing a horse and cart to a train. The D4D is quite torqy at around 250lb/ft from little more than tickover. Supposed to give around 35mpg too.
