I finally got my 91 pickup all back together tonight! It was nice to finally hear it running. ha ha! i bought the truck and it didn't run. The timing chain was toast and chewed the timing cover to hell. of course all the guides were broken so i went ahead and pulled the pan. you guys wouldn't believe the gunk in the pan. I guess it wasnt taken care of plus the truck has been sitting for at least 2 years. Im not really sure why i am writing all of this... i guess i am just excited! I've got a few bugs to work out with the truck before it's road worthy... mainly a few leaks (exhaust and the front of the oil pan) but im gonna take some pics and postem!

 

good for you man.. you're writing this because your success story inspires others. love to see people bring dead trucks back to life. some pics would be nice.-josh

 

how about a coupleof pics we like pics here!

 

sweet man, nothing like getting your rig back to life.

 

i know the feeling

after sitting in the garage for a month, when I finally got mine running, I ran inside, yelled for a minute, then went back into my garage, sat in my truck, and smiled.

 

haha the moment i finished my timing chain i was so happy.
first time i did any indepth engine work.. at 2am lol.

 

Ya there's nothing like fixing your own stuff! I will post up some pics tomorrow night! we got alot of snow yesterday(which never happens in Georgia) So the first thing i did was test the 4wheel drive! It works! Ha ha! This is my first toyota, and i must say, I am hooked for life!
