I’m new to this, and not sure if this is where I’m supposed to write my introduction. I have an 86’ Pickup, had it for about 5 years always looking for help with different things. Thanks

It does not work from Google Drive, it's a zip archive, that needs to be downloaded & unzipped. You must not change the catalog tree, to use - open index.html file, and you shall be presented with a full interactive graphical menu. It contains all versions and varieties of 4R/Truck I could find, for US, JDM, Europe such as: body type (single, 1.5, dual cab, wagon), tranny (ATM/MTM), Spare wheel carrier (undeneath, on the t-gate), front suspension (IFS/Solid Axle), rear suspension (leaf springs, coil springs) etc etc. As for the engine - only 3VZ-E for now, though I'm planning to add 22R-E in the future.

And also offline parts catalog for 5VZ-FE Engine (engine only):
