    SR's have it and I have seen some that are better than any SR5 out there because of better add ons people have put on instead of the generic stuff Toyota puts on for you an an inflated price. Suspension, tires, lights, skid plates, stereo, speakers,...you name it. Save the money and put on better equipment yourself. Flip the like new stuff out on ebay to make up the cost.

    Honestly I have no idea. I've been so busy with work I haven't had time to check. It still goes into 4wd like no problem so I'm guessing it's still fine. I ordered the crush washers for the diff fluid change, I'm going to do that in a couple days.

    Update: starter is still ok, negative terminal was just loose. Everything else is working good. I've put 400 miles on the truck since I flooded it. She's a beast

    Hey OP! Have you pulled the fill plugs on the difs and t case to check and see if you actually need a change? If there's water...it'll overflow and be milky. Stick a finger in there and make sure the fluid looks good (giggity)

    I have not. Can I just pull out the fill plugs without needing new seals?

    More than likely they would be fine...but you're probably best having them on hand just in case. I would probably just replace the crush style washers as a CYA. But I also can't remember which ones are crush washers. There were a lot of washers to think about between the rear dif, front dif, t case and transmission. When I changed everything I ordered two sets and just replaced them with what style came off lol.

    I did that 2 weeks after I bought my brand new 1991 Toyota with 22r/5 speed. I tried to cross a stream next thing I knew water was going over the hood and flooding the cab, when the engine died my friends bailed out via the windows, tried to start it up and got a few clicks, tried again and it started and I drove out.
    To this day I have no idea how that little truck started and drove out of that mess.
    Took 3 days to clean out, the only thing that I had to replace besides fluids was the MAF sensor. I was about 22 at the time. Ended up driving that truck 285,000 miles before I sold it and bought a 1995 Bronco which was my DD til 6 months ago
