Here’s one for free in WA. -
My neighbor sent me this. Thought I'd post it in case anyone looking. Sorry, I can't get the link to post. Maybe because I don't have FB or possibly don't know what I'm doing. 🙄 Here's a couple screenshots.

Alright so a little background I’ve had all kinds of vehicles and have done all kinds of engine swaps, LS3 in a 3rd gen Tacoma. LMM duramax in a 80. Full Tesla swap in a 1st gen Tacoma. ect ect… So I wanted in my opinion the best vehicle ever... -

Last night I finally got everything bolted together. The airbox lid is 80 mm or about 3.15 inches. I bought some 3.25 inch silicone couplers and a 12 inch 45° intercooler pipe. I cut it down to size and used a cheap bead roller to make absolutely...

@gilmorneau and @ikarus THAKK YOU. Today’s theme was reuse, reduce, recycle. I reused sme old vacuum line, the plastic T, and the line hold down clamp. I will replace this vacuum line with fresh when it gets here from Partsouq next week. I’ll...

I had to order some extra piping to go from the 80 mm/3.25 inch airbox lid to the 3.5 inch G turbo. The factory OEM tubes size down to 2.5 inches which just didn’t make sense. Clamps, piping, and couplers are on the way, as well as a bead roller.

I finally got moving forward on the PDI intercooler. I picked up the correct early valance from @Hamachi to suit the turbo grill. I had to clearance the lower valence edges quite a bit. The turn signals fit with just a tiny bit of overhang at the...

In classic fashion, I lost the injection line hold down clamps. Stedman for the win again.

Tonight I finished bolting up the exhaust manifold/turbo, turbo oil lines, and got the 3 inch exhaust laid out. Relevant part numbers for turbo oil union, gaskets, and exhaust cushion attached. Nate would like to go to bed. PDI intercooler...

Great work Meshal. I looked on and off for a '96 or '97 model in that color for 4 years. Most had 500k kilometers and were pretty beat up. The interior on that one looks really nice. Great find. I finally found a '97 with around 60k...

The face has been replaced with new parts! This bumper is a brand-new unit, and I regret sending it to the USA, haha. Those corners are bare plastic. Headlights are brand new, paired with new chrome and all indicator lights. Additionally...

What's up with the engine and trans? The truck has about 130k km, so there is no need to rebuild, but I treat it pretty well with a new gasket kit without using the head gasket. Also, many of the new parts have been installed. Both the engine and...

OK. Back from port with 2 beautiful Saudi 80s. The rear flip kit arrived. The speedometer cable arrived. Tomorrow it gets a City Racer E PS kit. Back on it for the final push.

Engine is torn down and parts and pieces ready to take to the machine shop. Unfortunately, continuing the bad timing, the shop is in the middle of relocating from Denver to Wyoming and won't be ready to do anything for me until the end of the...

I looked up a 1990 European BJ73. Obviously I have no idea if that's the correct reference model. Good luck. 41101-60070(10/1985 - 10/1989)1 41101-60071(11/1989 - 12/1989)1 41101-60080W/DIFFERENTIAL LOCK (08/1987 - 05/1989)1...

Just been doing a few odds and ends to the truck lately. Got some new tie rod hardware, lug nuts, and did an alignment.

Also, finally recharged the A/C system after replacing most of the major components (see earlier posts). I've never really done any a/c work until this truck, so fortunately, there are several good videos about it. Anyway, the system held a...

Been doing some bondo here and there where I used a stud welder to pull out some dents the troopy had, the circles in the metal thats left behind would look noticably bad. Also bondo'd some of the wheel well that I rewelded as it was quite wobbly...

Alright, I made like 0 progress today 😂 Spent a couple of hours masking/taping-off weather stripping here and there. Then I laid down some more paint on one of the doors, and it just came out like absolute sh!t. Horrible. I was not pleased...

Perhaps, but I get dismayed seeing the amount of clear gloss peeling on cars around 20 years old or sooner. The one I use is enamel, so hypothetically single stage, so off you go, other things to do. Initially quite glossy from the can or even...
