60's gotta go. no time and less coming... :confused: found a couple of used tacos 2wd and 2.7 and above. yr models: 91, 08, 10: 91 is a pre runner thats a plus in my book. Others are standard trucks. If I'm honest I havent had a need for 4 wheel in a # of yrs... but its nice. However...

Would you recommend using RTV sealant or some gasket sealant on pump to block gasket and t-stat housing? If so, what brand/type? Both sides, etc.? Thanks in advance!

Thanks to all. I figured it out and a bud found it on here all at the same time. Just backed it out to aim lights. Hey Brock... Need to get with you about LCLC Might be in Savannah for a while. Thanks!!!

The new wiring harness I have has a pos/neg lead to the bat. The new harness has a square 2 wire plug connector w/ black/red wires and a square 3 wire plug w/black, red/green, white. Trying to finf where 3 prong connector hooks up to existing wiring. All the wiring connections on this truck are...

Thanks in advance!!!!! I'm trying to install the IPF wiring harness into my 60. Where does the male "pick up plug" plug into the Toyota OEM Harness? I can't find a square plug for it on the pass side fender? Or is that "plug Y" and not used in this application? Thanks!!!!

For sale: "rebuilt cruiserparts.net" 2F carb. Have 250 +core charge invested. Would like to get to get my 250 back but make an offer. Will accept trades for parts I need... or can use. In Knoxville, Tn Thanks!

Thanks to all! Napa belts as recommended by Jim worked great! Looks like pump was gutted by PO. Not really sure that the fan clutch needed replacing but its got a different one on now. Not having done the belts before I thought maybe the rig would use different belts as I new the ones on...

Thanks for the reply! Can't do American and CDan now due to the time crunch. What about the difference on the belt since no smog pump? Which belts can I run stock? Which one needs to be different? Any particular year of earlier 2f say from a 40 that would work? Thanks again!!!

'87 desmogged 60 belts ?, Please Help/Advise I tried the search couldn't find what I need. I have a completely desmogged 60 running a header. It has three belts (they don't ride correctly in the pulleys: sit low in the groove). What belts should I run? Any part numbers would be greatly...

Thanks 2m and apologies as I didn't post up enough info. Desmogged 60 running a Holley and some cheap 6-1 header. All installed by PO. I'm sure I've got vacuum (albeit limited) leaks, and intake leaks as well. Back fires under decel. Smells rich (no cat either). Old plugs looked nice...

Got a rather long trip coming up in the cruiser and haven't gotten the new manifold gaskets on. Nice exhaust leak, really loud. How urgent is it that I fix this prior to trip? Any long term damage possible as a result of running at interstate speeds for 7 hours? One man job or do I need...

I've got a '69 Apache tent trailer on the project list. PO replaced wood with what he says is marine grade ply. A few of the popup sites I visit mention that most manufacturers don't recommend coating. Not sure if its a ploy to sell more board or not... I'm of the opinion one more layer...

I know that all of the gurus and old timers know this but I and it is very simple and quick but I thought that I would post up my experience. I have had the truck for a while now and attributed all of the steering slop to leaking- worn knuckles, bad TREs, REs, bad alignment. Took care of...

I know that all of the gurus and old timers know this and it is simple but I thought I would share my experience. Had the truck for 2 years now. I attributed all of the slop to knuckle rebuild, TREs, REs, etc.. Did all of that and now got around to doing the 10 min adjustment and what a...

I am interested in this topic also while I have a ways to go before getting to this point; I am currently researching options. I am like the OP in driving conditions. I find it very beneficial that OP posted his driving scale/conditions. And, while it is possible that he lift a wheel or two...
