2nd gen gear on a 1st gen

Hi guys,
I have a 4 door 1991 toyota surf. As far as I know, that is a 2nd gen? Please correct me if I'm wrong on that...
I wondering if some parts from the 91 will fit into my 85 4runner? Things like seats, bullbar/sidesteps, grill, interior, etc.
any help would be awesome!
Thanks guys!

Ben

As far as I know, yes your '91 is a 2nd gen.
Certain parts from a 2nd gen. fit on a 1st gen. as well.

So far I've heard that the seats swap over fairly easy, though I haven't done that modification.
On mine I do have a dual diaphram brake booster, calipers & rotors all from a 2nd gen. V6.

There's very little in the way of sheet metal or interior parts that will swap, because the body style change is the big difference between 1st and 2nd gen. That and going from leafs to coil suspension in the rear.
Steering is different, as is front suspension (IFS vs solid axle on your 85).
