1988 Toyota Extended Cab 4 wheel drive. 5 Speed tranny. I have performed alot of work restoring this truck- New paint, rear bumper, front bumper, grill, valance, new windshield, replaced rear glass, Mid 90's factory Aluminum Rims, New BF-Goodrich All-Terrain KO tires in 31 X 10.5 15LT (oversize tires) (TIRES ALONE WERE $750). I took it to Lawton Toyota and Spent about $2800 there on heater core replacement, New Wheel bearings all around, new brakes and rotors front, 1 new caliper, New wheel seals rear, new brakes rear. I wanted to lower the trucks gear ratio to properly run oversize tires and keep the fuel mileag good, so I had the rear differential and the front differential re-geared to 4.56 from the factory 4.10, it is perfect fort the 31's and you could put alot bigger tires on it if you wanted. I put a salvage engine in it from an 87 truck and it is the factory Toyota Turbo 4 Cylinder 22RTE. The Turbo really helps on power. I drove it about 12,000 miles after this but the engine is using alot of oil and is starting to run poorly sometimes. I think it needs to be rebuilt. The heater intake vent on the hood area leaks water in the cab so no carpet is installed. No radio in the truck but I have a Audiovox CD player you can have if you want it. Truck has factory wiring for a receiver, I repaired the butchered wiring and had a pioneer CD in it for a while. The interior is now all original, previous owner botched the inside up but I have replaced most of the junk with factory Toyota parts, door handles, steering wheel, shift knob, etc. Tachometer does not work, front hubs are stuck in 4WD. I bought some used manual hubs for it to replace the new defective auto hubs I bought last year, but they are not installed yet.
I have described this truck so you know what to expect. It is not perfect and needs some work to make it a finished truck, but the hard work is mostly already done. Will make a very cool Classic Toyota Xtra Cab 4X4 for someone.. I have already spent over $7,000 on it and I am not interested in letting it go for nothing. But I bought a boat and need the money so my Toy now has to go. Come see it and make an offer.
