Like I Need Another Project - 3vze head gasket job


Well today I drug home another one. It's a 1990 4runner with a BHG. Power everything, cruiser coils, BJ spacers, sony HU, CB/PA. And it needs a starter badly.

Me and a freind went down in his Dodge to pick it up...




Some guy was tailgating us all the way home...


And after 6 hours of driving we're home...

Really, I don't know. But it feels more like spray on than roll on to me.

EDIT: Oh, yes it is bedliner

lol. Yeah I dont know what happened there.

3.4 yeah yeah yeah. But it costs 3 times as much as doin the head gasket. (though it would save me from a chance of having to do the headgasket again)

The Bridgestone Desert Dueler was OEM on many of the tiyotas in the 80s and very early 90s
