1985 Toyota 4x4 Pickup Truck/Hilux - Review
Вставка

- After 10 years of ownership, I’ve spent a good amount of time repairing just about everything on this truck from the frame, to replacing engine, body & paint work, and all kinds of mechanical stuff.

You have more information on this truck in a single 14 minute video than most of the Toyota forums. This needs to be linked and stickied to all of them, excellent resource.
Thanks! It took a while to put this one together, but should help a lot of people interested in these trucks.
@@6thGearGarage u have a Toyota truck? Year?
100% agreed. Great vid.
Bought a new 4Runner in 86 and still daily drive it today👍🏻
Joe M nice! How many miles on it?
jason127x99 284,000
My uncle had the 1st year in Red with the removable hard top. He kept it immaculate until his ex got it in the divorce

@@210SAi feelsbadman.jpeg Im putting my '84 22re Celica project in the prenup. she can have everything else.
Toyota would sell so many if they went back to this style.
Shoot facts
And they would sell even more if they brought back the straight axle. 😎👍👍
Sadly they can’t make them that sturdy anymore because of EPA regulations
They would sell millions if they still had the 85’ price tag
I own a 2017 Taco but I would trade it in a heart beat for a 1985 Turbo diesel Hilux! A beast of a truck!
22R engine is forever....
"1985 Toyota pickup. When a truck was still a truck." How am I ever going to top that??!! Great video!
Thanks! I'm sure you'll think of something while driving in comfort :P
6th Gear Garage not sure if you’ve seen it but Top Gear says that in a toughest trucks episode
Shame u missed out on the Diesel engines we received here in Australia 🇦🇺
Some people have imported them to the US and they're very desirable here.
Here in Finland petrol hiluxes are rare, we have mostly diesels here.
We Toyota guys want diesel Toyota’s like crazy here in the US. We have the “American” automotive industry to thank for keeping them out of the country.
I posted my USDM LN65L-MDXA Hilux walk around above in comments if you wanted to see the Diesel engine factory installed.
I can’t wait to visit Australia and rent some new Toyota trucks :)
Geeks Who Care car rentals in Aus are usually wack if you want a ute etc you might have to go to a commercial hire place
I have an 1984 pristine condition 22R, I found it in California and bought it from a guy that only used it for camping, not abused, no rust, and with a little bit of love I got to restore it, and I simply love it!! I own a 2019 BMW X5 and a 1982 Mercedes 300D, but the car that I enjoy the most driving is my faithful 22R, I use it as a daily driver, it came with A/C, so it has everything I need! I'm planning on lift the suspension but at the same time I want to keep it stock. Amazing video and congratulations on that beautiful truck! Cheers from Guatemala :)
“Forget about power seats.” -Toyota Pickups 1985-2019
@@yt.be-r Cause I'm short!
@@CoastalKite but once you set the seat in the position you like, why do you need a power seat?
Power seats usually raise more than mechanical seats do. I cannot raise my mechanical seat in my Tacoma high enough.
Forget about power under the hood too.
I love these 80s Yotas so much. I’ll never get rid of my 88 4Runner.
But if you do shoot me a message!🤘💥🍻

I hate to but my '92 Toyota 4x4 pickup is going to the scrapyard. The rust on mine is worse than even what he showed here, the torsion bars broke off the frame, the frame is crumbled to dust, the body is rusted to dust, and to top it off the engine threw a rod and you can put your fist through the block.
"Nice set of wheels! Lets see what she can do..next green light"
What kind of wheels are they
Sold my '85 in 2015 and kick myself for it regularly. I loved that truck.
Watched this after Donut Media’s video. Love it dude. Would love myself a Karin Rebel haha
I bought mine brand new in 85 its a awesome truck currently rebuilding it
That's incredible
👍👍 !!
I would do some strange weird things for one of those
Love my 86! Does everything I ask it to do! 22 R like a fine tuned sewing machine!
Love my 2007 turbo diesel hilux 5 speed 4x4 (my profile photo) its very tough and motors very strong, but i agree the older hiluxes are 20 times stronger and built stronger
When I was 7 years old my dad took me to the Toyota dealership and told me to pick out a new pick up truck. I picked out a beautiful blue Toyota 4 by 4 with a giant silver stripe going down the side. My dad drove that pick up for 4 years before trading up to a 1990 Toyota 4 runner SR5. It was like trading up to A Cadillac or Lexis compared to that bouncy blue 4 by 4.
Nice bro. U can put it in 4x4 with out turning hubs. I had 83. 22r. And 4 runner roll bars slinding back window that aint no S10 ever ever. Love the buzzzer
Excellent educational and thought-provoking video about the durability and longevity of Toyota trucks. I wish Toyota came up with a strategy to overcome rusting.
Thanks for your time efforts and research.
Sincerely Babur
I am a CJ Jeep guy. But I have the utmost respect for that Toyota pickup truck. In fact I would love to have one.
*I'm a proud owner of an 86' YOTA survivor shortbed and militant as all hell!*
They used it a lot about the coast guard
My jaw hit the floor and stayed that way for the duration of this entire video! You deserve only good things sir!
Nice wrap on the pickup. I'm in eastern Australia, have had a 1987 YN58R Hilux Xtra Cab since 2013. 2WD 2.2 4Y with super-rare Aisin-Warner 03-71 3p + OD automatic. 4Y is a common forklift engine. Absolutely runs out of puff at 4000rpm, but that's not a bad thing. These low-revving, madly-overbuilt engines are known to run >500,000km without rebuild in the Hilux. Mine is running on LPG Autogas, which can't wash oil off the cylinder walls, so engines last much longer. Nearly all taxis in Aus run on LPG. There are million-km examples of 4Ys on Autogas. Mine is just getting started with 240,000km (149,000mi). Rust is just not a thing in Australia provided you don't live near the coast. Worthwhile mods include removing the clutch fan and using a 16 inch electric fan instead. When you only have 91hp to start with, a 15hp parasitic loss at 3500rpm is noticeable in acceleration and fuel consumption. As you note, just keep replacing the wear parts and you will have one of these literally forever.
The last’ of the great cars stopped in the early 90’s

I have an 84 Toyota pickup Hilux Diesel also. I also owned a 87 Toyota pickup 22RE Turbo model, but got rid of it for the Diesel. My Video of the diesel is on my channel on you tube.

I use to have this toyota 4 x 2 pickup truck with 4y engine in Botswana.this truck is v good..i m lovin it....
I like toyota,,, indonesia dominations toyota kijang pic up, grand, super shot / long 5k / 7k, toyota jantan army operator. Come my country in borneo. Toyota old domination standar original and full modifications...
I dont like imports except when it comes to the mid 80's Toyota trucks and also the late 80's Corolla GTS.
martinez1701a just my opinion I think Toyota’s are the best
people forget about how much more powerful the jeep Comanche was in this era. the non high output 4.0 put out around 177hp in 1987. In only a very slightly heavier/larger truck.
As a kid I remember my father owning like 20 of these trucks and sold them for good money and i remember the last one that rolled out our drive way back in 2013 it was a 4x4 1984 Pickup with a bad engine and sadly had to let it go if only I could've told my dad to change his mind but i was younger and didnt have much interest and my dad knew by memory how to fix that engine up part by part but I remember these Gems greatly even a 1981 4x4 pickup with the 20R engine that was his baby until he had to sell it due to financial problems. Hard to see them here in Texas but when I see one me and my father would get morbidly excited to see them.
This is epic, i am from South Africa and have a 1997 2.8D 4x4 (profile picture) and its so nice to see videos on these old trucks, i love mine , 356000km on the clock
“Check out that 4x4”
My dad buy new Toyota hilux 1998 still this day work with the same engine and gear
Aqui en honduras los tenemos como arros toyota 1985 doble eje. Casi todos los traimos de 🇺🇸 es la maquina q mueve el cafe de las sonas montañosas. Y q viva olancho.
Awesome video. I have a 2wd version and been restoring it. This truck's a beast!
Best trucks ever made.
hell yeah i totally agree with you, this truck was also rebranded by VW and they sold it as a VW Taro
Hzj75 Toyota is the best Ute ever made
Went to Mexico for vacation last December. It was great to see these beasts all over 😎
Most of them were the last gen thou.
@@hectorcardenas2171
Indeed
Very Cool, !!!! Keep the Videos coming, I have a 1987 single cab, 4x4, 22r, manual, no options, 220K California truck that I'm slowly restoring
I owned an '85 4x4 for 19 years. It never left me stranded.
RyanKC when I bought mine in 2010 (85 extra cab) it had 308k on it. Some didn't take care of the coolant system and between the head and block it got a cavity which mixed my oil and coolant together. Still drove home. Got a rebuilt motor and she's going strong again.
Great video reminded me of my appreciation of my Toyotas. I own/ed three toyota trucks : 1985 extracab 2wd 22r carbed 5spd, 1984 extracab 1ton long box 2wd 22re mpfi auto (swapped to over 5spd), and 1992 4runner 3.0v6 auto. My 85 22r got my help with new timingchain, shave down head, and straight dual exhaust. I didn't expect those mods to do much really.. Wow did that improve torque and acceleration! And it sounded awesome. It seriously felt like 140 hp after those three mods. Would pull >105mph on level road.
Great restoration! Happy to see you having so much success with such a cool vehicle :)
Only drawback on these was the single cam chain older years had double. Still love mine I get people stop by every 6 months and ask if it's for sale! NO!!!
Had an 83, 93, 02, and now a 13. I miss the 83 the most.
I love Toyotas they’re beasts and they last forever my dad had a 2001 Tacoma that he got in 2015 we went everywhere in that truck it has three hundred thousand miles on it and it’s my brothers now then my dad got a 2011 Tacoma supercharged with fox suspension raceway blue
Nice! These hilux bakkies, we refer to as bakkies not pickups ;-) were sold in SA till 1998. I still own my 85 d/cab(replaced the engine with a 22R ) but still totally original.
Also own a 1979 and 1998 single cabs, still running.
Awesome video on one of the best ever built
THANKS FOR YOUR TRUE YOTA LOVE I HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR ONE NOW 👍🏻💪🏻👊🏻💯🔥✌️
Or the guides give way and the timing chain jumps a tooth taking out 3 valves with it. Ask me how I know. Lce performance double row timing chain kit....
There’s like 4 of these in the workout parking lot where I live
The 1989 sr5 we had as kids was outstanding. JAPANESE work. Same as Honda generators. Was JAPANESE. Now china. We build these trucks. Then ship to japan for engine...
We all know this. 22r motor standard transmission. Only rust from salt. Behind seat for guns bro. Pull brake on. Had 1983. Was good on gas. Not for big dudes. Small guys only. If was not from SALT. It would not rout. I like it for gas wise. Ontario. To British Columbia. 200 bucks gas
Bought a 1980 pickup from a buddy for only $200. It had the 20R swapped for the 22R. It sat for 20years & started up the second I got it home. Although it’s so slow haha. I had it floored & it was only going 53mph. Love this truck & I have no problem with getting everywhere slower than I’m used to
Is it the automatic version? My dad's hilux-based kijang can go 150km/h (95mph) on 5th gear. It has the 2L-II which only makes 85hp.
The automatic version is really rare where I live, i heard that they're total crap acceleration wise
I’ve got an 89 extra cab SR5 22re 4x4 Australian delivery. Bought it new from ferntree gully Toyota. It has never let me down. I think without looking 422k!
Love my Ute!!!
If u undercoat last for ever. U should see my four runner. Mint no rust in Canada..love 22r. Drove to British Columbia 200 buck gas. Me n my wife to be now. We left Ontario Canada's 1992. Came back 2005. I tell ya freinds. U want trucks. No salt. B.C is your place. 22r bullet proff. Had 2 million km
I own a 3.0L diesel Hilux Year 2000 and its done 170,000km. (100k miles) Ive owned it for the 6 years ive had my licence and only put maybe 5000km on it, my dad owned previously. Its in mint condition and 100% its going up in value. There is not 1 Hilux like mine on the market, the ones that are for sale are beat up, rusted or heavily modified and they still want $17,000aud. My dad bought for $10,000. Im still under the belief that I will always be able to sell my car for $20,000 but ill never sell.
It's a future collectible
Where can get one? I had a 95 the last year they made that truck. Torsion bars, 22R , 5 speed. I put 100 k miles on it. Regret trading it, for a 2001 Tacoma TRDOFF. A lot of people think they sold Tacoma that year, they sold the old style for. 4-5 months. Would love to find one.
Damn I wish I had the money to buy one of those or even a 90’s Tacoma !! I’m stuck with 06 2WD 5 Speed 2.3 Ranger ):
I bet your frame lasts longer than mine ;)
I just picked up an 88 4x4. Been sitting for 10 years. I can’t wait to get it going.
How much you pay
wish i could attach a photo of my 2000 s10 zr2 im working on.
Wow Beautiful truck I sure miss my 1985 Red SR5 regular cab short bed never forget what I paid for it new $8833.33 just a plain Jane truck and love it miss it
The trucks are sick as I'm in Australia an I lovem . I got a yn 65 an a LN 65 same truck but ones a 4y petrol an the other is a 2.4 desiel . Had the petrol for 16 yrs . Had the desiel for 10 . . Longest relationship I've had .. lol love ya work
hi! actually al we know that LN65 is very good at offroading, but i really wonder that how is the ln65 on the road? Is it pumby? How many miles do you drive your car uttermost for example?
When I first bought the truck, I was driving about 100 miles a day. The 22R does great on the highway. After a couple of years though, I bought a car to get better mileage and more comfort/safety for driving with a baby. Now the truck doesn't get driven nearly as much.

Enjoyed your video. I've owned 5 Toyota trucks in past 20 years. Both Tundra and Tacoma.. currently Tacoma . It's a real shame with frame of early Toyota truck. They have a ton of character each and every one.
1:20 yeah hilux..very nice pickup
Kind of funny that you sold a Civic to drive it daily - I sold my 97 Civic for a classic truck as well. And yes, I also discovered that old pickups aren’t exactly optimal daily drivers
Jeffrey Woods fun does not equal practical, but definitely worth it!
As a rival competition Nissan D21 Hardbody 4x4 owner, I
definitely 👍🏼 this video.
Excellent job.
I’ve looked for a hardbody, but there are no nice ones left around here.
I’d like to own one or a first gen pathfinder.
@@6thGearGarage yeah they are pretty rare trucks to find, either a Hardbody or Pathfinder will be a good choice, although the Pathfinder does do a little better off road because of the factory suspension setup.
Good luck to you I hope you do find a clean low mile one, would be sweet content on your channel.👍🏼
Great truck. Does the job without all the extra crap on today's trucks. I wish Toyota would bring back something simple that works.
You got that right!
Used to own an 86 HJ60 turbo. Regret selling it everyday. But just bought an 84 double cab V8 swapped LN65
I can smell that interior from the look of it
i love ,My 4runner 1977 sr5 but all the electrical switches give up... But i still love uer thanks for your video!!!!
I had an 82 hi lux with a 7 foot bed. To this day that was my favorite truck of all the trucks I have owned. I miss the manual shifting transfer case and manual locking hubs with a straight axle and 410 gears. That little truck was a warrior that would take me anywhere and get me back without any troubles. One thing I did was buy an aftermarket luxury high back buckets with a fold down console. Best investment to cushion the stuff ride.
They do ride stiff, especially with aftermarket leaf springs.
seems like a lot of money was put into it. I just want a little truck reliable enough to drive daily
Only cause it's from the 80s and he takes it offroad
You're either going to pay to keep a vehicle(note) or pay to keep it running (maintenance)... Either way you pay. Nothing will work great forever. As an 84 2WD owner I can say that I average roughly $1k a year in repairs, not that bad in comparison to a truck note
Never understood why they used plastic for the timing chain guide arms....My only pet peeve with the 22R
you know your stuff.I had an 85 just like yours but it was a little more stripped down than yours.I"m 60 and that was probably the most fun vehicle I ever owned.22R engine,alway"s go with a 4cyl,(in my opinion),5speed,locking hubs and solid axle,(that"s what makes is a REAL TRUCK!But,I live in NJ where rust never sleeps!-great review.
Awesome resto job. I plan on doing the same to my 90 f150!
Those are smokers windows so you didn't have to roll the window down to ash, you could just hot box with cigarettes' while the kids fight in the back without car seats.
Do a Toyota Hilux 1992 please
I have a 89/90 2wd with the 22re. Keeping it as a project vehicle for the street. Almost no rust and I'm really in love with it. So much you can do with these.
I wouldn't mind picking up a decent 2wd just for hauling/ daily driver.
Is the 22re the turbo model?
As it pertains to IFS and off-road... a gravel road is still a road...🤣... Solid axle is the only way...🤣
I have a 1998 hilux 2ltr RWD with 510000kms that ive owned since new as a daily driver and i havent had to fix anything except a noisy generator bearing and of course regular servicing,

I love my 88 P/U. I appreciate all your videos. Eastwood makes an internal frame coating to help prevent rusting. I plan on getting some in the summer.
The most reliable car of all time. Pretty much indestructible. Fantastic vehicle, makes you proud of what humanity can achieve
A Hilux is not a 'car' . . .
Only frame rust can kill them.
I found a 1980 something step side lifted and built real cool
7:36 Yes sr! Rare in the US I drive my 1981 Toyota pickup diesel every weekend and it’s amazing!
This was my high school wet dream after watching "Back to the Future", great job on the restoration!
Thank you!
Just bought and 85 last weekend for $800 with a bad head gasket. Id been looking for that for ears and ended up finding it just 6 miles from my house lol.
You got a great deal!
Great video! Well thought out and well done. Lots of strait to the point info. Thumbs up! I love my Toyota pickups! I'm like you and also have and keep lots of spare parts to keep them rolling. Not that they actually ever break. I'm just a parts ho. I'm glad I picked them up when I could find them. Holding onto them with an iron fist. I would much rather put a chunk of money and time into a older Toyota pickup rather than purchase a new one at $45,000. Screw that.
Dude, you need a first gen 4runner. I beat the far out of my 85 and it keeps going. In the process of putting bearing and seals in the rear end and using your video to guide the way. Keep it up. I keep breaking things and needing to learn how to fix them.
P.S. if you happen to need to, i could use some info on how to rebuild the front axle to. Thank you, and dont stop, belivin. That rust can only go so far... right?
My front axle was rebuilt sometime before I owned the truck I think. I tore onto one side once to replace a wheel bearing but never rebuilt the whole thing. email me garage@6thgearadvertising.com and I'll scan you some diagrams of the axle from my manual.
So, my phone is being difficult and i dont have a computer of any sort. Im not terribly worried about it. But its greatly appreciated
@@seancleere7913 Hey I got your email. I'm going to get the scans and email them to you tomorrow.
Thank you so much
I had a 85 2 wheel drive pick up. It was a lemon- kept getting rear axle seal leaks which ruined the rear brakes. I traded it in for a 4x4 1992 Toyota pickup. After the differential was overhauled and still was extremely loud, I traded it in for a 2019 Tacoma 2 wheel drive. I had around 230,000 miles on the 92 pickup. I still miss it.
John axle seal leaks can be caused by a clogged breather. When the diff gets warm and fluid/air needs to expand, a plugged breather will send the fluid through the axle seal. My 94 land cruiser had that problem.
Really nice truck 34 years runs perfectly....saludos from mexico
I bought a 1985 SR5 Xtracab new in 1985. There was fuel injection on the 1984 SR5, as well but the head of the 22RE engine was redesigned in 1985, giving it about 10 h.p. more than the 1984 model. I had the rare metallic sky blue color, which was a $399.00 special paint appearance package. I still have my original window sticker from 1985, detailing all of the options, and prices. No, I don't have it anymore, I sold it decades ago. Great vlog, about a high-demand classic truck. It is actually about the 3rd generation of the truck from the mid 70's.
I thought I had the SR5 but wasn't sure until this video pretty happy about that, thanks! I noticed u had fender flares, what brand how much? I just bout the smooth bushwhacker ones and they fit amazingly but extremely thin....
Those flares came with the truck. I think they might be Bushwacker smooths, but they're 10+ years old and have some cracks.
I'm an American who is retiring in the Philippines in a few years. I've decided that this is the vehicle I want. Cool thing about the Philippines is I can find the diesel version.
I'm thinking of liner coating the whole thing, building it out like an overlander.
What do you think? Might be a fun retirement project.
I've seen it done and it looks very rugged. It also holds up well for offroading in the woods.
Nice video men IM PEREZ RIGO im toyota men too were your located in ohio im in ohio lll like to make a video with you
Hey, I'm up near Sandusky. What about you?
