Here is a link to the rest of the photo album for detailed underbody shots and whatnot. There are no leaks anymore, however there is some grunge from previous leaks. I like to think of it as rust proofing.

This is an older video when it still had 33" tires on it, but it gives you an idea of the acceleration. That was flat to the floor with a rolling start. You won't win any races, but you can safely merge or pass a truck in a reasonable distance.
This is a walk around from ten minutes ago.
Congrats! This thread is for 1991 and 1992 FJ80's that came with the old but reliable 3-FE engine. Yours has the 1FZ-FE engine which has more power but more problems that the 3-FE. Notable weak spots are the head gasket and PHH or "Pesky Heater Hose". My guess is that with that many miles...
SOLD!!!
This 1991 FJ80 is like a member of the family and I am reluctantly putting her up for sale. I drive it once a week to work to keep the fluids moving, other than that it mostly just sits. I would hop in it right now and drive to Alaska without concern. Fresh 35" Cooper STT tires, 4.88...
When you turn the key on does the check engine light come on? What is the battery voltage? How do you know the starter is good unless you just rebuilt it?
$10K or so? At least in the Pacific Northwest clean examples are selling for around that. I don't know the market there. Someone offered $7500 for mine and it looks like someone took a ball peen hammer to the hood from hail damage.
I just had a shop do mine yesterday. It's amazing how well the A/C works in 80's. Ice cream headache cold in just a couple of blocks. It works better than in any other rig I own, new ones included.
The 4runner is made like a beer can and the 80 is made like a tank. Sometimes that's a good thing, sometimes crumple zones are a bad idea. I was a tow truck driver for several years and SUV's of any type usually win against small cars/ pickups. What about splitting the middle and getting a...
Left hand and Right hand are the same no matter which side of the vehicle the steering wheel is on. For a US rig LH is driver side, RH is passenger side.
For sure 110% 95-97 plates will not fit on a 1991. The thickness of the drive plates on the front hubs were increased after April 1994 (build date). The new drive flange number is 43421-60040 and the old one is 43421-60022. If you try to install a later drive plate into an earlier truck, you...
91 axles are shorter aren't they? My original factory 91 axle on bottom compared to a longfield that is cut for both versions of the flange- I don't think the larger flanges would leave enough room to put the C clip on. (PS, hubs from a 1985 Toyota mini truck DO bolt right on your factory...
That happened on my '91 when running '93+ pads. I got another set at the parts store (labeled for the smaller '91), but they were the same size. I ground 1/4" or so off the outer edge and it's fine now.
