oh ahahah no i got mine for my 86'!

 

Do you guys think my calipers powdercoated yellow would look good?

And what color or colors should i powdercoat my valve cover?

 

Hmmmmm, what's missing in that pic...... OH YEAH, ....A FREAKIN LOCK! lol. You betta you betta you bet! lol. Great tool, ONE OF THE BEST!

 

Yeah i was thinking about rigging up some kinda lock. And yeah i can't wait to put the jack to use!

 

You will need to go to ARBs website and download the additional installation instructions for the 86-89 4Runners.
There are a couple other steps you need to take to install your bumper on a 1st gen 4runner..

I have the same bumper that you have and you have to remove the two upper bumper mounts that are on top of the front cross member...

I will see if I can get a link for you..

 

I vote black...

yellow just looks ricerish to me..

 

thanks... now i have to re-paint my engine

and you do realize that this is the same guy who painted his entire truck yellow, right?

 

Its a freaking TOYOTA I think that's kinda a ricer, the point of coloring the calipers is so they stand out hence I think black would be counter productive, I like yellow or red.

 

I'm in a lot deeper than the engine if yellows a problem.

 

hey he asked...

paint the rotors too

 

OK outsane that's just foolish everyone knows rotors get painted HOT pink or not at all LOL.

 

great, now he's going to do the rotors, too!

 

Hot pink rotors on a yellow truck...

 

Much appreciated!

For the calipers or valve cover? The calipers are already powdercoated black.

Lol!

Yeah i was torn between yellow or red as well...hmm

same here hahaha

Duh!

 

I'm going to pick up a 4spd manual trans and t-case from a 1984 pickup with 100K tomorrow for a REALLY good deal, i'm thinking dual t-cases!

 

you'll need new driveshafts, too. that would be sweet, though. and what code is the trans?

 

Yeah the driveshaft thing isn't a huge deal, i'm sure i can find someone to make em. I have no idea what code the trans is, all i know is that it was out of a 1984 Pickup.

 

why would you want a 4sp? Are you buying it for just the t-case?

EDIT: wait 4speeds weren't put into 84s only 79-82, unless someone put it in there.

 

Here is a link to the Google .doc version of the Early IFS Install instructions.

Not true, Toyota offered a 4spd into 1985 IIRC i know the second gen pickups had a 4spd as an option.
