well, it appears the six cruisers in my yard might have a baby brother...i just told a friend that i would buy a toyota 4x4 p/u that his buddy's selling.
my buddy knows nothing except that the tranny's bad, he thinks his friend said it was locked up, and it was a runner before tranny went. drove by yesterday and looked through the fence, it appears to be a 87ish ifs 4x4 std cab.
i searched the forum and don't find any sort of vin number breakdown...does anybody have a way to decode the vin to figure out tranny/xfer/gearing/production dates/etc?
also, when the tranny locked up, guy was driving it...is there anything common that would cause this (outside of no fluid)?
i'm sure i'll have more ??s later...
thanks
