My son has a 1986 4 wheel drive pickup with a 2.4 liter 22rec moter. we think the block or the head is cracked. It has 198,000 miles on it. I found a motor in a 1991 2 wheel drive pickup that is marked 22R-F. Would this motor bolt up with no problems and what does the R-F stand for? It looks the same as the one in his pickup.
Im not sure the different letters and such but the motor should bolt right in. Going from a 2wd to a 4x4 Id make sure everything is in the same place as far as wiring and hoses just so you dont happen to run across a stray clip or something you dont know what its for. Probably not the best answer but its what I can offer anyhow.
It will swap in except the intake is a bit different 89 the 22re intake style changed Longblock is the same 22rec is the same as 22re That "f" is an "e" missing the bottom of the letters There was/is no 22rf...
HAhahahahahahah. When i read this thread, i was like whats a 22rf. Hahahahhaa. That makes sense. Good luck with the swap man. Post up lots of pics for us.
The oil pan will NOT work, you have to use the original 4wd oil pan. that is the only difference, not sure if you need the 4wd pickup tube.
everythings the same you just needah change the 2wd oil pan and oil sump"pick up tube".post sum pix of the project.we wanna see
