We are pleased to announce that our shop is able to provide re manufactured engines for the Toyota 1GR-FE gas engine line through our JASPER Engine partnership!   This 4.0L, Dual OHC, Single VVT, V6 engine, is available for the following Toyota applications: 2003-2015 (4Runner | Tacoma | FJ Cruiser | Tundra). 

“JASPER replaces the OE cast aluminum pistons with forged aluminum pistons of our own design,” says Brad Boeglin, JASPER New Product Development Group Leader.  “The JASPER-engineered pistons have a 38% larger oil return area. This is coupled with the use of a two-piece oil ring design, replacing the three ring design of the OE piston. These two changes improve oil control, and prevent the oil rings from sticking.”

“In addition, the JASPER-engineered piston has a profiled top ring land to reduce scuffing under high-load, and an anodized crown for higher heat strength and top ring stability,” said Boeglin. “Our specially-designed pistons utilize a wider graphite coated skirt to prevent dry startup piston scuffing,” added Boeglin. “We've also improved the skirt profile for greater piston stability.”

The JASPER re-manufactured Toyota 1GR-FE is covered by a 3-Year/100,000-Mile nationwide, transferable, parts and labor warranty. Full warranty disclosure is available upon request.

If you are having issues with your Toyota 4.0L V6 engine, stop by the shop to let us take a look at it and if a new re-manufactured engine is what you need, then we DO have the right solution for you here!
