Time to start a build thread on this slow build. Picked up a 93 SR5 in excellent condition - 148K and a 3.0 that spit 3 rods out the side of the block.



Let the parts gathering begin! Picked up some 285s and bracket lift off CL, Aisin hubs, e-locker, solid side glass, sail mirrors, non tinted extra cab glass, full 4runner body harness, power locks/regulators, 92-5 4Runner headlights/grille, and of course 1UZ.







Cleaned up and ready for work

 

Subscribed!

 

Yup, me too.

 

What did you use to clean the engine bay? Pressure washer? Looks new

 

This will be interesting.

 

I just used Oil Eater and a scrub brush. Then rinsed with a garden hose.

 

Any updates?

 

Nope, nothing yet - been too busy working. I have been collecting more parts though and should be able to get some work done in February.

 

Clean truck! I'm glad you decided on 1UZ, you will not be disappointed. We'll have to meet up sometime soon and I'll take you for a spin.

 

Thanks! And totally! There's a bunch of things that I want to see how you did in person.

 

It would be fun to get a group of North west 1uz swaps together for a meet and wheeling trip
