1986 Turbo Hilux 4x4
I'm looking at buying this truck from a co-worker. He is the second owner and the original owner also works with me.
1986 Hilux 4x4 Extra cab, 22R-TE, Fully loaded, PW, PDL, Air, Rear Defrost, Cruise, Tilt, Automatic, Moon Roof.
253516 miles on the truck.
Fully documented life back to the receipt of the original sale.
All valve adjustments, preventative maintenance and oil changes have been early or on time throughout. Even log books recording all fuel mileage and weekly tire pressure checks from 54 miles on.
The big pluses that I see are:
Engine rebuilt at 168920/ 4-1-98 (84596 miles/ 11 years ago)
New Turbo and exhaust manifold at 208019/9-7-01 (45497 miles/8 years ago)
New Radiator at 220620 /11-11-03 (32896 miles/5.5 years ago)
According to the logs, after the turbo replacement, it has used < 1/2 a quart of oil between changes.
It drives great and according to the Banks turbo gauge, it maxes at 6-7 psi of boost. All services have been at Toyota dealers with only Toyota parts.
There are no leaks that I see except a little weep from the valve cover. All the fluids look clean. (A reflection on the service history)
It also includes a camper shell that isn't in the pictures, but is color matched and is only a few years old.
What else should I look over? Are there particular problems with the turbo trucks?
Here are a few pics:
Thanks,
Dave
