yes, it does. Prepping for the surgery right now. Plan is to fix it, drive a few k miles, sell it, get a 1st gen 4Runner... and a commuter car.

Nothing planned on the radar as of now, just lots of wrenching.

Just testing the waters here, but when the time comes to replace the motor in my rig, I might try stabbing it in at home instead of paying a shop to do it.
If I pick a date and offer a cooler full of beer and smoker full of brisket, any locals in Sonoma or Napa County interested in lending a hand?
This is still a ways away, I just want to survey the landscape and see if this might fly.

No clue where that is, but I'm usually in Vallejo on the weekends, and I'm always up to helping someone work on a yota

You're not very far from me, maybe a 30 minute drive. I'd like to help, not the most knowledgable help, but I can help.

I am very knowledgeable, but live a little far. I will make a decision when the date is worked out.

I live in San Rafael CA. Not sure if that counts as NorCal hahaha. I guess its kind of MidCal.
Anyways I have a 1986 Toyota SR5 truck which is mostly stock besides some decent off road tires, and the GF just bought a '95 SR5 4Runner which is completely stock. Both are 5 speeds.
Can anyone recommend some one or two day trips for some one very new to off road driving? Something with in reasonable driving distance to the North Bay. Im a good driver but all my experience is in track driving and autocross, but I understand how and why cars handle.
Id like to turn my truck into an expedition rig and do some overland adventures. Dreaming of driving through Canada and Alaska.
