my mate just did that hope you have dollars n time on your side
change eng mounts
change the radiator
the gbox n transfer as it s bigger than the original and the orig won't suit .
tail shafts
and fit a 5l pump on it ,as to not need the computer connected
thats just a brief run down to begin with

also thats on a late model hilux there are differences to the old chassi as well
so there maybe a difference in the 4 runner chassi
