Hi all, I've been a silent observer of this site for a few years now and decided it was finally time to start contributing. I am pretty much done with a daily driver's version of a complete restoration of my '90 pickup. The pictures really don't do the paint justice. I outsourced the paint because I knew there was no way I could do the kind of quality job I was looking for. The guy I took it to turns his nose at factory paint jobs from Toyota. He's a true perfectionist. Let me know what y'all think!
Umm, OK, about the only thing still original is the odometer. I'm on the second engine, second tranny, just about everything, you name it, has been replaced at some point. I got 325,000 out of the first engine and now 180,000 on the second, a Jasper long block.
Hey Guys, over the weekend i installed my snorkel to my 92 4runner (3-VZE)
and had to modify the intake pipe from the snorkel to the air box,
Luckily where i work we sell conduit and it just fit in the bend with out squashing the conduit,
Used sikaflex black on all the seals to make it water tight,
and also didnt have to move the starter pack or anything, pretty much just squashed it in there,
I think it looks good,
Im a bit worried about the conduit potentially though with all the riffles, which may lessen the air flow through the conduit to the aitbox
what do you guys think?
I don't recall posting here before, so here goes: this is my 1989 Toyota pickup! It's got 144,000 miles on it and I paid exactly $0 for it 4 years ago. It had a small wreck when my buddy owned it and, not passing MD inspection when he moved back here, his HOA not so kindly told him to get rid of it. I needed a little farm beater, so it became mine!
it almost never sees road use since OD hasn't worked in about a year and the brakes have been terrible since I got if, but this little truck goes everywhere and does everything on the farm! I'd have to say it's probably the most useful piece of farm equipment ive ever had! Runs great.
