My new rig. 1985 Runner.

My new rig. 1985 Runner.-6jv7oz1.jpg

Truck has a brand new engine with only 16k, new clutch, new 4 inch suspension lift, new true track differential in the rear, new 4.88 gears, and much more. The guy I bought it from put around 8k into it. Has 280k on the odometer and is in incredible shape. He was asking 6000 but I got him to take 5.

Yes they really are. Only issue it has is a exhaust leak at the connection of the header to the down pipe.

Very clean..ditch the running boards and warn hubs..warn hubs (unlike their other products) don't have a good reputation compared to stock Aisin hubs.

So it appears she isn't without her faults. Found an exhaust leak where the header joins the collector. Anyone have a part number for the gasket there? Also I was looking at some sliders as well as a custom bumper. So far the only thing that I've found that fits the 85 runner is trailgear. Any other brands I should check out? Also anyone from WA know a good custom shop?

the warn hubs them self are strong. The six mounting bolts tend to loosen up causing the possibility of sheared hub studs go up.
