I was talking to a coworker yesterday and the said he has an 85 or 86 4runner for sale, sold front axle.
It has a 4inch likt and a 2inch body lift running 31 inch mud tires.
From what he says the truck is clean(which im sure it is).

I havent had an opprotunity to go look at it yet, so i dont have any pictures.
They are selling it for around $3500

 

6 inches of lift and 31's? Plan on buying new tires that thing has to look like roller skates. Check on the frame and body for rust. 3500 seems a little high unless he has taken really good care of it and there are a few goodies on it.

 

Not sure exactly what that's worth but for that much I would require functional 4wd, and everything to be in good running condition. I see 1st gens like that for under $2K around here, but they're usually heaps. $3500 sounds kinda high but if it's in real good shape it sounds resonable.

Edit- ha gilby beat me to it.

 

I will be checking, however in the area i live in rust is not an issue. Ive yet to see a car with rust issues around here.

There is a 2nd gen pickup down the street from me with a similar setup and it looks sweeeet.

the tres on the 4runner are also brand new.

 

New tires- easy to sell if they're too small. Always check frame and body for rust and damage- I see transplanted cars from back east here and there, plus beach city cars rust over time.

 

if all rust check out ok.

what is the max you would give for this truck?
i really need pics, i know.

 

if its a clean 85 and its for 3500 that is a steal around here. i dont know what you guys are looking at but a clean first gen starts at around 4000 around here and a 85 with a straight axle will go for even more

 

if it is a true 85, and its a true Cali truck, $3500 is a great price, given taht it runs like a gem. I wish I could find a mint 85 here with no rust but even in WA, they are scarce (and we dont even salt the roads!!)
