Reluctantly selling my 1990 Hilux double cab LN106. This truck has been a fun project over the last couple of years but like it or not life is changing and it’s time to thin the herd. Located in SLC 15 min from the airport.
No rust on the frame or underneath. Looks like there was some spots on the bed corner and RH vent window at one time but they appear to have been treated and primed (see pictures). 400k km service performed Winter 2019, including timing belt, water pump, oil pan gasket and BEBs, cam and crank seals, engine and trans mounts, fluids, filters, and belts. I use only Toyota parts unless not possible and a stack of receipts and a maintenance spreadsheet come with the truck.
Compression checked before the turbo went on around 406k:
435, 435, 420, 420 psi
Turbo upgrade and PM details can be found in my thread here: '90 Hilux daily driver build - https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/90-hilux-daily-driver-build.1183010/

I know the light isn't great for some of the frame and undercarriage pics, let me know what you want and I will take more.
This is not a fresh JDM import with perfect paint and less than a hundred thousand KMs ..... it was a Western Australia truck and has been used accordingly. I have also not babied it since bringing it to Utah and it has been all over the desert and wasatch. There are multiple areas missing clear coat including the hood and roof as well as a number of small dents and dings. The RH side of the bed has been painted but if it wasn't missing the graphics you wouldn't be able to tell. The back of the cab has sealant residue from when a topper was "attached" that way. The driver door armrest/grab handle thing is cracked. The windshield is cracked near the drivers corner. I tried to take pictures that capture all these flaws but let me know if you want anything specific.
I have collected a number of spare parts including a new speedo cable, lower fan shroud, manual antenna, starter, and complete alternator w/ vac pump. I can include the old oil cooler and headers if someone wanted to take it to back to NA for whatever reason, the old exhaust would bolt right back in. I could also include with the truck a complete 3L engine with ~100k km out of a 90s JDM Hiace.
Despite the truck having 400k+ on the clock it runs like a top and starts easily in freezing temps every time. There is a small oil pan heater installed to help get the blood flowing but this isn't strictly needed for cold starts. When I pulled the bearings they were still like new (I still have them if someone wants to see). Doesn’t leak a drop of oil and the transmission shifts better than my Tacoma. I wouldn’t hesitate to drive this thing across the country tomorrow - a lot of people say that but I’ll actually back it up: for the asking price I’ll deliver the truck to any airport west of Tulsa. Clean Utah title, easy to register and insure in all 49 states.
