Oil Pan Kit 3.4L V6

(5VZ-FE Tacoma w/Solid Axle Swap)

When installing a solid axle swap kit on your 95-04 Tacoma, you will notice that your stock oil pan will interfere with the new solid axle. We have solved this problem with a T100 oil pan kit. This kit comes with a new oil pan, pick up tube w/gasket and the dipstick w/tube. This kit comes with all the parts you need to convert your 5VZ engine over to the T100 pan. You can get the maximum flex out of your solid axle suspension without worrying about hitting the oil pan.
