Bad Booster, are they rebuild-able?

[yzftaco]

Hi all,

I just purchased a 94 Runner, and the booster went out 2 days after I bought it..

Are they rebuild-able? I know I can get used/manufactured for way less, but Toyota wants $1000 for a new one!!! Holeee Chit!

Thanks in advance
Mark

Check your local junk yards/ disassemblers.

Check this thread for sources

parts sources for used parts/bumpers/parts etc - YotaTech Forums

Thanks Bud!

$65 from a local dismantler is WAY better...

Mark, you got the 1KZTE that was up for sale in Santa Cruz or Ibeezy's from Ventura? (Sig line)

WANNA RACE!?

Let me know if you need any help with it or any interior bits since John and I have started up a little parts collection.

LOL I tried contacting Ibeezy, but he never got back to me. Then out the blue I check Craigslist just to see if there's something else out there. and the one from SC popped up.

It's pretty scary buying a truck that has an unobtanium motor in it.. Crossing my fingers that regular maintenance keeps it running for a long time. Here's to hoping.

I notice that you're all over the bay area.. I work in Brisbane right near the Cow Palace. Drop me a line if you're ever in this area.

It's no race car. But sure! I know off the line I got you

LOL, I know you'd have me off the line, I was even thinking of just following you up 92 to 280 and on over to HMB with a GoPro since I've been talking about hosting a Meet-n-Greet for some LC-80's and Mini's.

As for work, yeah, all over up to San Bruno, down through San Jose, and up to Union City. I'll pm ya next week when I get back from a little trip I got going.

Let me know if you need help with the booster swap, I can go there or you can come over here next Friday. Same goes for the door switches if they still need fixing: http://www.toyotadiesel.com/forums/showthread.php?t=8256 I know the original builder and what else it might be needing.
Here's a pic.

If you don't keep the head unit I got dibs since I have one and want another.

~You need to post a thread in here on it!

Well got er dun yesterday. Brakes great again.

Norcal, I just might be interested in your help with the lock switch. It still doesn't work. Also thanks for the link.
Cheers

As for a thread about it, I didn't build it, and this is my first diesel, so it wouldn't be an interesting one.
