luxes 1986 Toyota

Well if that's the case then I could take her for a ride anytime she wants, all she has to do is ask

 

axle torn down, cleaned and painted





rebuilt toyota packs with 3 more leaves and no overload. 6 total.



went ahead and did a u bolt flip while i was working on it.

 

Just read the whole build and i have to say... well done my friend, well done. Amazing build and you have definitely put your blood, sweat, and tears in that truck. Keep it up man.

 

Man this thing was a turd when u got it! Shows what a lil TLC can do for u! Haha nice build!

 

yes, yes i have, too much blood, sweat, and tears

was a turd???? it still is

 

Hahaha its all in the eye of the beholder

 

looking good man, i remember this thread back when it was 4 or 5 pages. gotten a long ways. keep it up!

 

Nice, you on the marlin crawler site?

Brett

 

wow this bish needs to be updated

 

Yes it does. Then bring it out wheeling some this season

 

i want to but im not sure on how well it will be running after i finish my crappy 22r to super amazing and loads of power massive 22RE swap i still need to figure out all the wiring because im using a stock un molested harness out of a 93 toyota 2wd pickup w/ an automatic, i want everything to function just like it should have if it came off the line in 85 with a 22re

 

anyway heres pics of the swap so far

pic of the doner (btw ill have this complete truck minus the engine, wiring harness, and fuel system for part out soon if anyone is interested in parts)



pulled the 22r again for the last time and striped the engine bay of all the 86 wiring harness and charcoal canister and other crap i wont need





pulled the tranny and cleaned it up alil just because its the only driveterrain part that hasnt been pulled and cleaned



cleaned and painted the tranny crossmember



wait a minute a 22RE???? thats not suppose to be in there



getting some of the wiring together and ready to go in



^thats about 1/6th of the wiring harness that needs to be swapped in

in





pretty much it so far, hoping to get alot more done this week and im hoping to have everything wired up and working within the month so stay tuned kiddies.

 

Nice build! Don't forget to swap oil pans from the 22r to the 22re and change the sump.. 4x4 is front sump to clear the front axle and 2wd is rear sump. Sump I mean oil pickup.
Do you have and efi gas tank lined up or are you going to run an external pump for the fuel injection?
Nice build

Brett

 

I already swaped pans and oil pickups. I plan on using the efi tank from the 2wd I'm not sure how or where I'm going to mount it though, I'm thinking maybe under the toolbox through the floor possibably??? I don't know yet and I'm not gonna worry about it till I get the electrical done


On a side note does anyone know where I can get a complete wiring diagram for the 2wd on the internet for free??

 

Have you swapped in an sr5 cluster for your dash with the tach and speedo volt gauge etc? I know with my 84' pickup now sold it just had the speedo in the middle and idiot light gauges .
I know the fuel gauge has to match the fuel tank. I had to buy one for my 85'long bed a bit ago, if I had a different tank set up or if I put in a sending unit out of a short bed compared to my long bed the gauge would not read accurately cause of the different fuel tank size.
Also 4x4 tanks are deeper than 2wd so that will play a part in the gauge saying its full or half empty.
If ya do care about all the anal stuff like me them rock on!! Just for your info.

Thanks

Brett

 

wow! What a job! Nice work!

 

no i didnt swap in a sr5 cluster, but i did do something a bit different, something i havnt seen done before

 

I hate wiring!
