Mr.Toy is the man. The guy is very good with 4runners and pickups. And he's very billingual. I always speak to him in English. His employees are french speaking.
Locally in Montreal/Quebec within the 4x4 toyota comunity he is just as well known for building offroad monsters as he is known for just simply keeping the old trucks on the road. That's more what he does, keeps the classics running. Anything from brakes, to engine swaps, transmission replacements, body and frame swaps, he's your man. He's even done my ARB locker install, and did gears on a friends recent FJ cruiser.
He hasn't worked on my 4th Gen yet. Most of the trucks he sees are the old 1-2-3rd gens. 4th gens shouldn't be failing much yet. His DD was a 500000km T100 so he's worked on the 4.7. Probably even done 4.7 swaps into a classic 4runner. The difference is that if you go in with a 1995 4runner, and need a door he might just have it, if you need a front axle for your 1984 or an exhaust he might just have it. On a 2005....if you smashed your hood or need the exhuast...he'll probably not have those in stock. But I can't say enough about this guy, because he's helped me out alot with getting parts for my 1st Gen and he shares the 4runner passion too.
