    The 2uz was an interference engine.

    Fortunately, a 5mge is non-interference. The timing belt on my '85 Supra blew twice while I owned it. The first time was probably due to age and mileage. The second time due to one of the front cam seals failing and spewing oil into the timing belt cover.

    west coast of Iowa is the best coast!!!

    have you ever had reason to remove the bed from your '96 tacoma?
    i am trying to brainstorm the best way to go about it now that spring is here and i need to beat any pending hail storms that roll this way
    thinking of renting an engine hoist to see if that may get 'er done and put back on safely with no issue

    Or you could assemble a hoist in your garage and let it do the heavy lifting while you guide the bed right off
