Depends on your goals. Personally I'm one to do it right the first time - weld metal floor patches in. It'll just come back/get worse if you...
Awesome Stout! Knowing the history I'm surprised you don't want to keep that truck around. Ship it to your place and keep it in the south where...
Lots of fabrication. The 2-headlight Hilux grille sits on the front of the hood and fenders making the nose. The 3rd gen 79 truck has sheet...
The LCE header is popular for 2wd because it's a 4-1 layout and benefits at high rpms. Doug Thorley is the other popular high end header, it's a...
I didn't do it myself. If I had another vehicle at the time and a place to do it I'd have tried. I paid like $2k for a rebuild and new clutch back...
I kinda thought the light bar looked "not horrible" for some reason but I'd still ditch it - then I noticed you have bumpers pads on your...
Welcome! Good to see another 2nd gen Hilux joining the club here. Looks like a good project. Nice price too!
Interesting. Didn't know you could even DO what you're trying to accomplish. Will there be enough headspace to close your hood with a setup...

I don't know much about transmissions or how they work exactly, but I do know 4th gear is a direct drive gear and isn't in contact with one of the...

any pics of the problem?
Swap to spindles from a 75-78 that had disc brakes?
Want to come take care of the dings in my truck too? Lol. I need to do a few small areas too. I can't tell from the pics - What did you weld?...
I'd buy it but I already have 7 vehicles. I recognize I have a problem
Someone needs to buy this. I'm soooo tempted to just snatch it up. If it was a 75 I'd already have it. It's been haunting me and I'm back and...
There's multiple sub $1500 running 1uz Lexus on Sacramento CL every time I look. Pull everything you need and part out what you dont, hopefully...
Ask them before you get it? Personally I think I would just go find a sub $1000 Lexus for the 1uz and part out what you can. Acquaintance of mine...
I too have a 75 and though my truck runs fine, I decided that I'm either going to stay with 20r or go 20/22r hybrid. If I'm going to go through...
Welcome! Nice pickup! I've seen pics of those before....probably the most reliable "VW" ever made, hehe
