Sorry. Got a bit focused on your first question about the date on the door jamb vs. the date on the title. Your truck is an 84, in the US so you...
If you're in the US, the designated "model year" may not be the same as the actual "build year". Model years usually start around Sept/Oct of the...
Close generalization but the Supras (through 2nd gen?) did come with W58s and the M/T IS300 with the 2JZGE came with a W55.
TBH, I've never tried one. I read too many posts from people who recommend against it (which is why I've never tried one). Generally, aftermarket...
LOL As if that's possible...
Looking forward to seeing your hard tonneau cover if you decide to make one. I need to make one for my truck and would be interested to see yours....
There is nothing wrong with chopping springs, as long as you understand how your springs "work" and do it right. I (and everyone else) cut a few...
The one on the left looks like the e-brake. The middle and right side parts are the load sensing brake proportioning valve system. As the bed gets...
Yup. The Xtracab window is larger.
"Give and take". That is, you can also install 1" longer rear shackle and 4" blocks. Net result will be close to 3.5". "Close" because axle is...
Yeah, 4Wheelparts sells the u-bolts. They have the various widths, lengths, and thicknesses so you can get the right sized ones. I was going to go...
Yeah... I totally regret not "pre-buying" his blocks, u-bolts, and bumpstops and storing them in my garage instead of waiting to buy it all when I...
Yeah... unfortunately, you were. But, you have to. It's mostly oxidized paint and will need to come off to get shiny paint. And, unfortunately,...
78s didn't come with V6. I don't think Toyota even made V6s in 1978... I thought 1Tons came with an 8" axle?
Yup. Let sleeping dogs lie... LOL
Interesting. Did you get the 76 bellhousing? If so, did you compare the pivot ball heights?
You might (should?) not have to modify the bell housing. From what I've read, 20R, 22R, W50, W55 are bolt-on interchangeable. May be that the...
Just a hail mary thought... with the clutch cover unbolted, are the diaphragm spring fingers sticking out? Just thought maybe with the disk...
I have an '88 with the 22R and W55, so I can't guarantee my truck's setup is the same as an '83's setup. But, looking at my shop manual, the...
So, I was flipping through one of my books on suspension modifications and came upon a discussion about pinion angle. Apparently "pinion angle" is...
Separate names with a comma.
