I am selling My 84 FJ60 LC. It is rust free but has minor issues which I am addressing. Like it need cleaning and polishing. and i am looking for a windshield wiper arm and a tail light lens. also has an exhaust leak.
Thanks all. I seemed to have missed out on buying that truck so it is a mute question at the moment. However I am still hoping to find a 4 cyl. fuel injected Toyota PU. preferably ext. cab. does not need to be 4wd.
My understanding is that the engine is fuel injected. so It may be a late 84?? I like the tip about checking for a timing chain rattle when cold. However I won't have the option of doing that test before I I buy. The truck is about 2 hrs. away and If I look at it during the week the owner...
I want to make sure the 22R timing chain kit I saw listed was the same as the 22RE. Also I will want to know what all is included. At this point I have not yet bought the truck. and I don't Know if it needs it. But at 205K, it is a concern. Also I will be needing some parts for the LC and...
Thanks. that helps. engnbldr. is a good resource. Their price for an 84 22R kit is $58.00 which would be awesome. I queried them as a double check. But have not gotten a reply as yet. merry Xmas.
I don't know if I must remove the head to change the Timing chain. As some engines you just remove the timing cover and it is accessible. I agree that the other stuff should be done while its open. the cooling system has been recently replaced along with the alternater. but I am not sure about...
I am considering the purchase of a truck with 205K and wonder when the timing chains typically need to be replaced.? Also on a previous truck I owned, an 82 22R engine the chain failed at 80K and required removing the head to replace it. and was expensive.
I am thinking of buying an 84 PU with an 22RE engine. MY question is do you need to pull the head to change the Timing chain. As in the 82 22r engine I had in a previous truck. At what milage would you need to replace it. My old trucks timing chain died at 80K.
Well a slight change of subject. I am in the market for new rear mud flaps. a friend suggested that when folks do a lift they have to replace the liners and have the old flaps as surplus. also Is there a relatively easy diesel swap? I may keep an eye out for an engine if I knew what I wanted.
