Well i had some Shocks that i took off My 91 pickup i replaced them a wile ago and saved the old ones .. so i put them on. Yeah they are shot wont move on there own





I started to dig into why it was not running good Found out its a 87 22RE
Found the Knock sensor wire not hooked up with the wrong wire head on it




So i got the 88 22re and all of it parts Looks like blown HG have not gotten it on the stand yet.. i took the knock sensor wire off the spear and hooked it up
... The truck runs ok now have a TPS screw missing and its not adjusted

yeah its nice i need to get some lights and heat its 33oF in there now.

About the paint its nice for how old it is but im gonna spry the whole thing With a paint gun and do some graphics ...Im thinking of going a Gray / gun with a Black or DARK Green hard top ..

 

Nice looking, you got some work a head you, but great start, keep it up.......

 

grey with dark green would look pretty cool

 

sweet runner project, subscribed to see your progress, looks good so far :}

 

Small world.. I saw that 4Runner on Boise Craigslist and was really considering buying it until I had to put that money into something else! Hope you get her running strong. Will stay tuned to see what you do to her!

 

It was a steel i talked the dude down a little but i had been looking for a runner for a wile now (About a year) and i could not pass it up.. it Looked bad i think the PO Was a punk hick that did not take care of it but oh well i have it now!



Started To do some more work but im broke right now so its gonna be a slow build

Will up date when i get photos on the comp.. Stay tuned !

 

Haha awesome, did you get the extra 22re with it too? Yeah not too many deals like that locally. I went and looked at this one the other day.. http://boise.craigslist.org/ctd/2758348144.html definately needs some work and has a pretty good exhaust leak but it's been there for a while and could probably get it for alot cheaper.. They're asking $995

 

Yeah i got the oraiganl 22re with it.. looks to be blow HG but there is all way more bad's than good's. gonna rebuild it over the winter/spring..


The cheaper you can get it the more work can be done to it =)

 

Well Jacket it up took off the tires and more Bad thing's

Looks like time for a SAS build?

 

How do you tell if an idler arm is shot? Curious...

 

That Was the Plan When i got it.. Money is tight so im gonna get all the SAS parts over the next year and then install them when i have some down time from work.

I need the truck to be drivable got to use it till i get the SAS parts and any thing i do to it i can swap over the pickup (I.E Shocks, Bj spacer new leaf pack's...)
