Thanks for the update! I have a truck like yours in SoCal and it's great to see your progress.

nice fish man

Why don’t you just buy a performance leaf spring kit with a 2 or 3 inch lift and tell them you want the spring rate softer. They can bend your springs in-house for a few hundred each.

Nice😎

You go to 33s,you will loose a bunch of torque and probably kill your clutch. And decreased gas mileage. Now you get some lower gears like 4:88s or something that would work.

Lets be real, 3k is steep for anything from the 80s. Unless they are in like excellent condition. Chances of that is pretty low. Not many people are willing to sell a good condition classic to begin with.

Beautiful sight! What river is this?:)

I really like your truck. I have the twin to it in SC. It is still all original with the exception of interior door panels. Daily driver. Keep the videos coming. Thanks. Lee

That's very similar to the truck I had from 83-89. Yeah....I really regret getting rid of it, glad to hear you have more sense than I had. Anyway, it was a yellow 79 longbed with a Centerforce clutch, 50 state smog legal Weber carb, smog legal Doug Thorley tri-y header, 1/4" larger than stock diameter exhaust with a Thrush Turbo muffler, 3" suspension lift (Rugged Trail springs, Rancho RS5000 shocks), and 31x10.50 BFG All-Terrains on chrome versions of the same 8 spoke wheels on yours. It still had the stock axle ratio (4.37, same as 1980) and the stock 2.28 low range, but it had a 4 speed from an 82 which had lower 1st and 2nd gears than the 79-80 trans. It even had the same camper shell yours has when I bought it. Something that I did that improved the ride quality quite a bit was experiment with the tire pressures. I wound up settling on 29psi front and 24psi rear (without the shell), and not only was the ride quality noticeably improved, but so was the tire wear. At the recommended pressures they always wore down the center tread first, after lowering them to 29/24 they wore perfectly even across the tread and lasted at least 1 year longer. I would bump the rear up to 26psi if I put the shell on, up to 30-35psi for a very heavy load. Didn't hurt the gas mileage either. You may have already done this but in case you haven't and want to give it a shot, go to a smooth/flat parking lot and draw a chalk line across the tread, then drive in a straight line across the lot changing the pressure until the chalk wears off evenly.

cool old school "mini truck" sounds like you have a ton of $$ in it now??

Love it

Bravo on the 4:70 transfer case. That's what I Want. I have a 1983 pickup. Have 5:38 rear end gears. Rebuild my rear springs out of car leaf springs. Front has a 3 inch lift spring , way to rigid. Might take one out. Rebuild my motor. Used a 22R block mated to a 20 R head. Supposed to aid breathing. Long tube headers. Mikuni carb like your. Advice for you. Soften up the suspension. Kept at it. You are doing a good job

I just bought mine and was really well preserved woth almost no rust, but it looked like some spots on the frame had rusted through so it might be a different story from the inside. Decided to strip it down and weld up all the rust, and restore the whole truck. Just gotta finish the garage before the snow arrives. Have to lay down some concrete and isolate it

Very first thing i would do is hand over the keys to me and i would fix the brakes 😊

Nice catches!!! Some good bass!

Where'd you get the plastics for the steering column I need those

I bet that in 10 years that Toyota it will still running, meanwhile, the Jeep is going to be on the junkyard

What state are you in?

It’s a green sunfish, green sunfish have green/light blue stripes next to its mouth and under its eye

You just dropped the garbage again, after picking it up? Smfh.

Really? You are comparing a pos american vehicle against a Toyota? Get real!

Becarful with your truck , I had a 1981 in Florida got stolen.I still miss it' 😢

Great price on a great truck ... great price relatively speaking, considering their value is mad inflated by how popular they are. I had a 94 that I never should have sold. Now I have an 89 that I'm working on. Yours must be an 81 or 82 or something, love it so much. I really like the color, too. Thanks so much for sharing this with us. Best regards to you.

Hey man! it was a pleasure to meet you out there! Nice fish, and an awesome day of fishing for sure!

I daily my 86 yota pickup 4*420r 31 10.5 bfg ko2 i have 168*** mi

Nice Toyota!

I want to buy the dashboard is in the back of the truck for my 1979 Toyota pickup?? Let me know if you want to sale

Just finished watching your video. I have an 82 myself. Unless your radiator/washer fluid reservoir is cracked, then you just need a new windshield washer pump. Just bought & installed a new one on mine from Part Geek. Very minimal wiring (used old connector. The nozzles themselves needed slight adjustment (just follow the washer line, unscrew the holding screws on each, then make slight bend adjustments as needed). Good luck.

Grate trucks I did own 4 of them drove the to San Salvador Central American no problems thanks I wish I can buy one more they last forever thanks for the video

In for the LS swap

Sick truck, thanks for sharing

اجمل واقوه ماصنت من ٨٠ /٨١/٨٢/٨٣

Unreal what a beaut , rust hole and surface rust , wouldn’t change a thousand thing

Dang you still have her

NICE VIDEO!... THAT LOOKED LIKE ALOT OF FUN!

😍😍😍😍😍😍💪💪👍👍

@ $3000.00 with engine problems NOT too Bad that’s with a clean title and NO major rust issues….then again In California now 2022 be worth $8k low end and $10-12k in great condition…..regardless because pickup she’s a keeper

3:46 man, that gets me going every time. Awesome videos and beautiful water!

Hi! Nice ride there. I wish I had one but too broke and not mechanically inclined to maintain such a beauty. I have a replica video on my channel if you want to check it out. Thanks!

Cool truck. What a score!

Awesome truck! I have the same truck but in 2wd. Do you happen to know the dimensions for the camper shell? I'm looking for one but it is hard to locate one nowadays. Thanks

Yoo I seen that earl sweatshirt sticker 🔥

I would trade my left testicle for this. Congratulations on your project! My dad bought a brand new black short box in 82 the year I was born. Sold it for the last time In 2002. In the end it had 35 inch Goodyear a/ts on it and a really nice body job with a fiberglass box. He was the first and 4th owner lol. We wheeled it everywhere!

Go Yota!

I have an 83 pickup that I would like to put a new engine in

How much was the engine and install?

Very cool! I have the same issue with the rear procomp springs. I'm taking a leaf out.

Ok were your front leaf springs bent back up? Mine are flexing the opposite way from a normal leaf spring and I am not sure what that’s all about. Also my rear end sags a good bit. Instead of being shaped like ) my leaves in the front are l shaped.

Dude! This track!!!
