85 yotas or way to rich for my blood.....
I tryed looking for one when I was shoping for a toyota,and when I did find one for a price I could afford it either had a ton of miles,rust,or was long gone before I could make the time to go take a look at it.

 

'85s are overrated, and now overpriced since everyone wants one.

 

85s why are they so fill me in 85 runners are everywhere rearly see any 84s

 

his lsiting says its tthe only year toyota had a solid axle in the runners... wrong... the 84 runners had solid axles too.... if you are going to make claims, you have to at least be smarter than a potential buyer....

 

the reason they're so special is they are the last year of the solid front axle and the first year of the 22re.

 

it does say that it was the only year toyotat put a SA in that model (i assume to mean w/ the 22re) In that case, it is the only year for a SA and FI

 

well i knew that but still whats the big deal

 

it's a nice combo, guess people just think its worth that much more then adapting another year to it.

 

i'd rather do an SAS on a later model truck than convert an earlier model to fuel injection and swap in the wider rear axle, convert to crossover steering and redo the front spring hangers.

then again, my stock truck performs pretty well. next step is new springs and crossover...

 

i just picked up an 85 pick up for 200 today! no motor and tranny but thats ok i have a 22r to put in and will just propane it. its gonna be prokject cheap! i am thinking i will have under 1000 in it since i have alot of spare stuff laying around. including some 36''tsls. i got to have a local beater cause trailering the buggy is a pita for local stuff. anyway i like 85's cause bam your done!

 

i like the pix when he's running ove the cat.

 

i paid 1/2 of what a dude was asking for his 85 that was identical to mine in every way, but the 85 didnt run, my 86 can have a lot of cool stuff for the price of the 85,
