well ive been in the market for a toyota for about a month now and i think i finally found the truck im going to buy its an 85' rcsb 5speed just rebuilt with a mild cam 6" susp lift and a 3" body. the truck looks to be pretty clean not a dab of rust or body damage, for $1200 but my question is did they make a late 85' with IFS? nonetheless im buying the truck, ill have pics of it here soon!

 

Well they made the '86 model year in late '85...They are considered '86 even though they were technically made in '85.

 

yeah that makes sense, i looked at the ad and thought i was getting a SFA yota for 1200 bucks then i got there asked 2 or 3 times what year it was, looked at the manufacturing plate in the door jam but its been painted over lol o well just have to save me pennies and get a SFA swap kit thats gonna be fun

 

Not surprised, I have a buddy who has a '85 SFA with a 22R-E and a factory winch.

 

agreed

 

I know a guy that has an 85 and its IFS. Even has the 85 decals on it

 

lol ok cool, i just didint want the truck to end up being stolen with a dif title or something of the sort lol, factory winch huh, thats kinda cool

 

Regardless of what someone tells you, it is always best to look under the cow before assuming it is or is not a heifer.

 

Or perhaps it had a body swap

 

85, SFA, AC, best rig ever...all the goodies of a new rig, but the toughness of an older one.

 

I believe it's an '86 that manufactured in late '85 too. It's worth it, nonetheless.

 

a factory winch? wow...

 

awwwww yeah!

(A whole new meaning for "deluxe"!)
