Get yourself a timing light. When i'm getting bad spark the timing pulses at idle. Factory is 8 degree mine would pulsate from 6-8 because of the mis-timed spark. Plugs, wires, cap, rotor, fuel filter, and a new cat (not sure how to go about that in CA) is a great start. I'm sure some or...

You can jump the rear safety just by pulling off the rear interior cover where you rear light is (two screws and plug if i remember) and you can jump two pins in the factory harness to the rear wiper to pass the safety feature. You'll have to look up the pins I forgot but his was an easy way...

definitely try it and see! I know things like this work in the Jeep world (Rubicon monotubes on older cherokees etc) but I haven't heard too much about interchangeability this except the FJ80 rear coils.

Did that with my sliders and will be doing the same with a gas tank skid as well. I can find other bits and pieces around but not a ton of options so if you have a local fab shop you trust I'd go there.

I could create a new thread for this but why since it's right here, even if it is 4 years old. So this has been in the back of my mind as I get easier and more necessary maintenance done. In theory the 4 holes will atomize the fuel better getting a more consistent and better burn. With that...

Just a thought, check junkyards. I have a 1993 and the seats are in damn good shape. Might be able to score a set cheap from a JY from another 2nd Gen. Other than that I don't have much but I'm interested in other replies.

4RUNNER DIESEL | Diesel Toys(R) |TOYOTA DIESEL CONVERSION EXPERTS Price honestly. Your options are a heavy, loud, cummins then you have to find a trans to fit it (NV is what i've found) VW TDI -- I haven't read enough but there's enough out there to keep you busy for awhile. Checkout the...

4bt with an NV transmission 1KZ-T 1KZ-TE Not ranked in order, I would prefer a 1KZ-TE but that is an expensive swap. 4bt would be a whole lotta fun too.

Depends on how much money you're willing to spend. More efficient way for significant more flex would be to SAS. With that being said you'd be completely reworking how the suspension geometry works and how it flexes and where the stress points are. That's a lot of research etc but I've...

That's what makes it fun haha. When I was a kid I wanted it back together and working correctly. Now I want it back together, as good as OEM or better, so I don't have to do it again for awhile. I need to post up my before/after alignment pictures. It was rough but dude got it done which I...

I ordered the motor and then realized it was a good spot to mount the cb antenna temporarily so I used the existing hole to run my cb stuff through. Have to get it mounted up higher this spring but so far so good.

Putting in the bushings was fairly simple. The process of melting the old bushings out was a PITA for me. I was able to pretty much press them in by hand until it hit the taper then a combination of sockets and the spacer/nut that goes on the torque arm got them on there the rest of the way...
