2wd oil feed pipe and sump, 2wd engine mounts, and the wiring for the idle control valve needs swapped over.
Think thats about it.
The CTS on the 2wd head is in a different place, but most of it should fit without much hassle

you can fit a 2wd sump directly onto a 4x4-engine, but you need to grind some alloy away so that the oil-spray-bars dont rub againt the sump.
as above, 2wd enginemounts with brackets to the engine.
the iscv is the same, is the wires on the TPS that needs to be changed.
the coolantsensor for your intrument is at the same place as the coolantsensor for the ecu.
also the water-hoses arent the same, but change to 4x4-system, much better. need a new header tank for that.
wiring is also diffrent.
