cost of head gasket and install?

[sk8erboy209]

hey guys, I own a 92 auto v6 4runner...around how much does it cost for a head gasket and installation fee? should i use factory toyota parts for the gasket or is there aftermarket? I figured out that the gasket is faulty and oil is leaking therefore there isn't enough lubricant in my engine and lack of lube makes friction and ultimatly is causing me overheating problems. well, any kind of reply would be extremely helpful. and thanks to all that took the time to read this thread.

There was a re-call for this problem see if yours has been done.
Contact the dealer to check.

I would DIY if you can if not call around to some shops, stay away from the dealer if you have had the re-call done before they will charge you $$$$$.

Use Toyota Gaskets.

Don't keep driving your truck like this.
