    No start (no click/no crank) when engine hot.

    Did you fix it yet? When it doesn't start, what happens if you try and jump it? Does it start when you jump it? What if you try and just attach some cables to the battery and the other end to some metal on the car - will it start then? Or if you wait 2 hours, will it start again then? If...

    22RE Performance Stage 2

    Hey Felita, I will have to look back at my records and see. When I ordered the engine, I got a bunch of add ons, (stainless heater pipes, etc) so the total was not cheap. Did you call 22re and ask when they might start taking orders? That's annoying they are so backed up. Engine runs great...

    what's it worth?!? (1986 first gen)

    In good running shape and clean exterior, Hagerty has these coming in around $10-11k, and will insure them for that amount. But if it needs lots of work, it really comes down to supply and demand and how much someone is willing to pay for it. Which is heavily influenced by the region. They're...

    Rear Window Wont Roll Down

    A couple years ago I had a similar issue in my 89 where the rear window would not roll back up. Wiper was in place, bolt was in. I wound up taking it to a guy who said there was an issue with the grounding. He was able to locate it and fix it pretty cheap.

    First Gen Stock Sway Bar size?

    I'm ordering a full bushing kit. Any idea what the STOCK sway bar size is on an 1989 1st Gen? 19MM, 23MM or 24MM?

    Lares Steering Box?

    A steering box for an 89 runner. A few months ago I replaced mine with an old OEM one my friend had. Felt great for a couple weeks, but now my steering feels loose again.

    TPS adjustment and setting

    This may be a more thorough guide to the TPS Toyota 22RE Throttle Position Sensor Just curious, is this a new engine? Why the need to adjust it? Good luck - make sure you get the TPS right

    1st gen loose steering?

    Seems to be the culprit. 452,000 miles on the truck (not sure if the previous owner ever replaced the steering box) But...a friend had one (used spare, OEM) we swapped it out and it drives WAYYY BETTER. So, as long as it doesn’t leak konk out, should be good

    1st gen loose steering?

    Hey, What part of Maryland are you in? I’ve got a mechanic in southern PA who should be able to do the work but his schedule is tricky and I am having trouble coordinating with him. If you have any leads on anyone who knows these trucks and can do the work, please let me know. I just find...

    1st gen loose steering?

    89. Built in December 88. I can move the steering wheel about maybe an 1” to either side with little to no effect on the wheels. What’s the Hi-steer about?

    1st gen loose steering?

    That’s where I think the issue lies. Vehicle has very high mileage. I wonder how much$$ it would be to replace the steering shaft?

    1st gen loose steering?

    Been noticing more play in the steering recently. Took it to a shop today and he looked it over, And he couldn’t really see anything wrong with it? I replaced the ball joints, tie rods and idler arms within the last 10k miles or so. So those should be good... Any thoughts come to mind as to...
