My 1990 Toyota Pickup Build

I have had my truck for 2 and a half years and these are some of the photos of what I have done to it over that time, from bone stock to what it is now.

Replaced Clutch and Timing belt, easier to just pull the whole motor

I next changed the front end to go from sealed headlights to the style on the 1994 4Runner.


You can also see the addition of the light bar, rear tire carrier off of a 1991 4runner and winch

I then decided to paint the whole truck to make it more uniform






























I kind of forgot to cover the fram rail. I painted it black later

Those extended cabs are hard to find around here. I like the ride of an extended cab over a standard cab. Looks like you are getting things done on it. I am not aware of any light brackets available for them. Welcome to Yotatech.

OK so currently right now my truck is running really rich, when i pulled the plugs it looked like it was mainly on 2 and 6? Im assuming a Sticking injector but i am not sure, i have tried injector cleaner to no avail, and was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on it?

Thanks for posting that up.

The smittybuilt tents aren't all that bad from what I've heard. It will be interesting to hear what you have to say about it.
