Just keep an eye out online. I've tried an eBay grille for an 82 4x4 Toyota and it was not great. Just barely OK. I ended up not using it and fixed the OEM one. If your grille is OK finish-wise, you can fix the tabs and the plastic inserts are...
How about a wet compression test to see if the rings seal up to give you a hint of compression? The leak down test will also show zero so not much learned there.
I would probably look at taking the valve cover off and making sure the valve...
My 88 pickup has zero compression in cylinder #3... Before I go any further, what's the proper procedure to do a leakdown test and what do I look for? Cylinders 1-2 are 160, 4 is 180. No oil in water or vice versa. Thanks for the info.
I didn't see a Classic Cruise advertised this last winter ( I couldn't attend even if I wanted to since Uma was in rehab for a year when I thought that it was only going to be three months). Anyway Since I didn't see one I wanted to throw this...
I found this older article on Pirate 4x4 which I think may help you. If it were me I'd do the A340F Toyota transmission. Remember there are several different A340 transmissions.

Lube the cable and test the in-cab control unit for free movement as well. Had to replace the cable on the '81 project and soaked the controller in the ultrasonic to make it move freely.
What's wrong with a computer controlled one? As long as you get the ECU and wiring along with it. 1985-88 trucks and 4Runners had automatics. Not sure about 84s.
It's likely rusted shut. Take it off the truck and try to move it. If it won't move, you can try soaking it in evap-o-rust or some other penetrant and gently trying to get it moving. I was able to do it with a couple of spares I have. If you...
If it's an old enough vehicle (pre-95 in Maricopa County) register it as an antique vehicle. Just need antique vehicle insurance (I use Hagerty) prior to re-registering. Go to a 3rd party DMV office such as Desert Title it's much easier. I've got...
Yes. I did alot of rsch on it last night. I noticed yesterday that it don't like WOT. I called a buddy and he said the same thing. After looking at the specs of the carb and the mechanical fuel pump I realized I needed one. Thanks for the good...
It is the SR5. It does have the cool seats. And they are in great shape. Unfortunately someone thought it was a good idea to convert it over to Carb bc the EFI had issues. But its ok ill make the best of it. Maybe ill get lucky and find some...
Had the opportunity to check out the Broken Arrow Trail in Sedona this past weekend. My wife and I woke up early on Monday morning to beat the crowd. We had a great time exploring and seeing the beautiful sites around the trail. My wife even...
Yeah what he said. Look for a yellow wire with a black stripe. It should have a connector that slides onto that brass-colored round piece at the top in your picture. Probably white plastic. It's grounded through the sender.
BTW I'm no expert I...
