Haven’t posted in years, but finally in the club with a 67 out of Pennsylvania. Maybe someone has seen this thing around before, it has a 350 and 4 speed. Appears to have lived in California until 20/21 ish

Luckily I see no problems with this frame. I'll reapaint and start swapping parts over

Thanks for the info. Local yard just happened to have a clean ext cab frame. Seems easier than building a new one

Ok guys here's the deal, I bought a very nice original 84 4x4 extended cab with a toast frame. I found a mint frame out of an 88 2wd for a good price. So what am I looking at to make the frame work? It's there anything more substantial than all the axle mounting for the front and the transfer...

In search of an 84-85 toyota extended cab frame, I'd also be interested in any 84-88 frame that is solid. I'm located in Eastern pa zip 18343. Any help is appreciated! 5706568539 Pic of the truck in need of a frame

Wheels are centerline 5stars. At least that's what I call them

Location: east Pennsylvania 18344 Thinking about letting go of my sas 87 yota pickup to fund some other 40 projects. This has been a great truck to me the last few years and has never broken down. It is only listed here on mud. Let me know what you think Info: 1987 toyota pickup has around...

The green paint almost makes me think its a "gas monkey garage special"

Small update. Trans seems to be losening up some as it gets moved around as well as the syncros working better. New slave is in and it is running/ stopping much better, tore apart the heating ducts to find a giant mud wasp nest that was disabling the squirrel cage for the fan. On top of those...

So far I have just changed trans fluid, but everything feels good when up in the air and while pushing it around in neutral. It seems this cruiser was redone sometime around the 10 years ago it was parked. The story I got was the gentleman I purchased it from got it in NY drove it to south...

Personally I believe there is nothing better than a (mostly) stock 40. They are extremely capable out of the box, depending on the year money is best spend on upgrades such as breaks if it is an earlier model, don't forget to post pics if you can!

Thanks hack, I have pretty much ruled out the breaks, it only drags hard while in gear, as in while driving if you push in the clutch it acts as if breaks are on, only in gear, not in neutral and much worse in reverse.

I do appreciate the input, amazing how easy it is to stare at a project and overlook somethings so simple, only to have someone point it out in a minute!
