I know where you can get a free aluminum topper without clamps.

What is the bed length?

Great find! As Fireman mentioned, I may have a set of Aisin hubs for sale soon. PM if interested.

And it's rockin' the "laces out". Hope he stays with that look because it's the right thing to do!

Pretty clean. There was an old man at my church that had one just like it and I wanted it. He passed away and left it to his grandson. Last time I saw it it was really hating life.

Is the ole kneebow gonna handle the clutch ok?

Email in to TRDparts4u for the 54MM nuts, star washers and gaskets. Swapping PM's with Jordon on the hubs.

Planning on flushing the coolant this weekend to diagnose the mild overheating issue.

I'm usually not a fan of "laces out", but I have to agree with Bodean on this one. It is the right thing to do.

Greg,

Just like the '85 4runner that I just sold. Has SR5 door panels, but has DX seats. What is the manufacture date of this pickup?

 

[euclid]

I bet it took somebody longer to install this than it did for me to remove it.

 

[euclid]

Front left corner of bed. Rust.



Tailgate. Rust.

 

[euclid]

I'll be looking for a ds mirror.

 

[euclid]

Clean overall. Original paint is cracking on the bed a bit.

Oct 84.

Figure it took 28 years to get that little bit of rust. Hit it with some sealant in that area and peel out.

Mirrors on eBay. Factory exhaust gasket or Remflex. When you install the manifold be sure to saw through the webbing that holds the 2 sides together. That is where the warping that causes exhaust leaks comes from. Be careful of the exhaust studs and use antisieze in the threads.
