Next month I hope have the 3.slo rebuilt and installed, to where it can actually be used again. right now it has 315K+ or -, and orig head gasket. But It does have bad valve seals and guides, maybe some broken rings as noted by the blowback(or blowby) and most recently a leaking water pump. But, she has never left me stranded, even tho I used to drive from Waco to NE Dallas everyday with the above mentioned issues, then stayed locked in 4x4 all day on the wetlands project, and the drive home. leaked/burned almost as much oil as gas. Never had any tailgaters!! You Houston folks recomend a machine shop in your area?
i love my 3.0L check out my pics and pm me for questions man, i just bought a 2012 taco getting in supercharged saturday, trd, 6psi, and a lift kit when i get back to maryland, id love to run around with anyone whose near ft sam houston, in san antonio tx, my weekends are pretty open other then that im in corpsman school monday-friday, but i wanna go offroad here, idk how it is here, but back in maryland there are some decent mudholes lol

Kyle(austin/sanmarcos) Texas

1991 Yota 4runner 3.4 swap,r150, OME Coils , 4.30 e locked camping rig.

Lucked out so far, Bought salvage 1991 toyota 4runner in san antonio for $450 with (they thought) non running 3.0 with 5 speed trans. Got it home and figured out it was an aftermarket immobilizer. 30 mins it was running. Bought 3.4 motor for 300 complete. Elocker i just tripped over at the LKQ in austin. Pulled it out of the housing and grabbed wires they were nice enough to charge me $80!

Broke college kid slowly building a rig. Hopefully this year i will add in more goodies like supercharger,Cheap(haha) long travel, and small addons for camping.

Plenty of spare parts and room mate does the same with zuk/toyotas so if anyone wants to get a trip or do some trading/tire kickin/ drinkin beer and wrenching let me know.

Thanks man. Yeah, I had an 05 Frontier but honestly it was getting a bit small for my family/dog/bikes when the transmission died...replaced it with a 2010 4R TE, which I loved, but needed a truck...found this one with 38k on the odo a year ago - I hit 50k on it last week.
Kings/bilsteins/deavers on the way.

Mesquite, just east of Dallas. Would love to go wheeling sometime, even if mine isn't an off road beast just yet!
