Need to know what month my truck was made ?

97 2.7l and my power steering pump is bad. Call part store and they tell me they will have order it but there's 2 different pumps and they need to know what month it was made. Problem is the tag inside the door that tells me is MIA. Is there a way to find out it using the vin ?

no luck on month

 

Yea I decoded the vin with no luck. Did find out it use to be blue lol gold now someone did a pro job on the respay. Not sure what to do now would a dealer know ?

 

i would just lie to him, and when the part is wrong take it back and simply say it doesnt fit and ask for the other one. or pull the part from your truck and see if it has a p# on it

 

Bring your registration and license to a Toyota parts counter, they can look it up for you.
