Hmmmmm.... interesting. I always thought the rear axles wouldn't have many (any?) issues since they're so simple. Never thought about axle shafts...
My apologies for being unclear. I've seen flatbed Toyotas with 8 or 10 lug nut pattern dually wheels but I don't remember what year those flat...
I remember the King of Cheezy Automotive Products, JC Whitney, used to sell "dually conversion" kits exactly like this in their catalog.... I...
+25 on a 16x8 is about 5.5" backspace. To calculate: (Wheel rated width + 1" ) / 2 ) + offset in inches. So 8" wheel is: (8+1)/2 + 1" = 5.5"...
Oh, jeez. I have to apologize. I had it backwards, assuming the wiring for 1979 Celica is the same as OP's truck's. The oil pressure switch is...
From 1988 FSM
I have a 1988 single cab and the factory service manual which should be the same as 1987. The FSM shows there is no relay for the horn.
Hmmmm.... I have a 1979 Celica that has an electric fuel pump. The OPS grounds a single wire. On my Celica, and I believe any carbureted car...
I have a 1988 (4th gen). My owners manual says 5000lbs with towing package, 3500lbs without towing package M/T, 2000lbs without towing package...

Actually, strictly speaking, Calif (and prolly other states but I only know Calif rules) is more restrictive than that (unless they've eased up...
I don't mean to argue with your actual experience but I put an 18RG into my 1979 Celica that had a 20R. It was a simple plug-n-play. Even the...
Looks like new frame OP is looking at is a 1984-88 frame. Bed mounts in the photo are just like my 1988 and the shocks in my truck bolt to the...
How did you come up with your choice of tire sizes? 15x7, +25mm offset should tuck nicely under the rear fenders... with 215/60-15 tires. I used...
Maybe they sent you a cap and rotor for a T-series (found in Corollas in the US) engine?
I've never heard that the 1975 distributor is unique nor have I ever worked on one but I believe you can just swap the guts. I swapped the guts...
LOL The 1975 cutoff is considered the historic car exemption. Damn you, Arnie...
LOL what is "as much as you should"? I have a 1988 that I plan to some day clean up and restomod lightly. I've been in "parts collection mode"...
