Old school Toyotas...Who's got em?

Very excellent.

 

I had this 1986 Turbo truck for while, bought it built and wheeled it. That tiny little factory turbo def made a difference over other 22re's I wheeled with. Had dual cases, 4.7 gears in rear case, spools front and rear, full hydro, 114 wheelbase, 4 linked rear, 6 shooter knuckles, longfields, etc etc

I guess this is old school, but here she is: 1995 Land Cruiser FZJ80 Triple-Locked.

 

Now we're talking!

 

R151F (turbo trans with the low 1st gear) and gear driven transfer case (23 spline) is a dream combo! Nice rig!!



Edit/Update: 37x13.50 Toyo R/T take offs mounted from the Taco.

 

I had a hoard for years but am down to a 62 and 40.

 

You 62 is such a gorgeous rig been keepin my eyes out for a decent deal….ll

 

Here’s my second Toyota pickup I bought new in 1989. Been though a lot but still going strong!

 

Old post, beautiful truck

 

my old 88...

 

My old 77, should have never parted it out!
Had a 2rz, trans/tcase tucked up into the cab, cage, tons, 40s/42s, etc. Even daily drove it for 6 months on the 40s.





My 1st truck, got it when I was 15. Started out mint, then destroyed it over a couple years.


And one of my 4runners that I built. Caged, turbo 2rz, duals, tons, 39.5s, etc. Daily drove it for a year

 

Here’s my 1986 that I bought new, wrecked it in 2011, finally got it back on the road this year. Picture from not long after I got it and this year

 

1983 Toyota, 22R 5 speed. 80k Miles. Inside looks brand new. I used a claybar, and other goodies from griots to bring the paint back to life. but I love this bitch!

 

Thats clean!

 

I know! Starts up on the first turn everytime. Shes a bit rough in cold weather, takes about 20 mins to warm her up to drive. Fun truck. I put 12 sand bags in the rear in the winter time for better traction, rode back and forth to work for two winters. Old faithfull. No rust, straight body. I found this beauty in a barn. someones dad bought it new in 83, always kept it in the barn. He passed and it sat for years. Very min work to get it road worthy again.

 

Thats awesome! So cool to hear about good finds like that. So when is the prerunner 2wd build happening? lol

 

never. She is a classic. I cannot molest her. Keep it stock. I did retrofit some LEDs, because the halogens are just dog shit for visibility

 

Thats how I felt about my runner but I coudn't help myself.

I don't blame you. I did the Amazon led conversion on my runner. Made night driving hell of a lot better.

 

The LEDs came from chyna, they work and they are bright. You at travis? when you coming back up to truckee, I think we are due for snow this evening my dude
