  • This 1987 Toyota Pickup is the second of three trucks I just purchased. This one is 2wd with a Fabtech 3.5” lift kit. It also had an aftermarket fiberglass step side bed, which I already sold. The previous owner installed 2” wheel spacers and 15” Jeep Cherokee wheels. It has a 22r engine mated to a 5-speed manual transmission. Like most of the Toyota trucks I’ve purchased, this one also has a rotting frame, rusty cab, and is not roadworthy.

    That front end looks like it’s set up for flat towing. The plug is for the tail lights while towing.

    Hey 6th Gear, do you need a rust-free 1987 Toyota 2WD chassis?

    • @6thGearGarage
      @6thGearGarage  10 месяцев назад

      If I had a warehouse or some huge building, I'd scoop up every rust free frame I could find. Unfortunately, I'm out of space for any more projects.

    Dude pls let me know how I take out the driver side upper control arm. The steering column or whatever it’s called seems to be getting in the way and I don’t know how to take it off. I need your help!

    All too familiar to me here in Wisconsin. I’m starting to hunt for cabs, body shells, body parts and frames from outside of the rustbelt. I’m using the pats to put together perfect rust free toyotas. Pickups, 4runners and Landcruisers. Yeah, they have salvage titles, but nobody cares when they see them up close.

    • @6thGearGarage
      @6thGearGarage  5 лет назад

      Matt S_. Smart plan. A rust free yota around here is gold.

      6th Gear Garage I just got a notice from eBay, my 22R air intake tube just sold for $30! I have parts from at least three or four classic Yota’s. Your other video about parting out yours Inspired me.

    • @6thGearGarage
      @6thGearGarage  5 лет назад

      Matt S_. I think you could have gotten even more than that 👍 try 40-50 next time.

      6th Gear Garage That’s a problem i’ve wrestled with my whole life. I always want the other guy to get a good deal. In any case, Working with old Toyotas it’s almost a reward in itself, real labor of love.

      I'm out here in the super dry AZ desert. I'm finishing another build. An 87 4x4 extra cab. But I've got a 88 2wd all there but the engine. But I've got a buildable one. Truck is in amazing shape. Literally zero rust. 0% 4 speed non A/C truck. I bought it just for the running engine. Any takers message this and will see.

      Not that I'm aware of for the front. I know on the rear you can run the leaf sprigs over the axle instead of under, to get some additional height.

    • @6thGearGarage
      @6thGearGarage  5 лет назад

      Thanks! I'm not sure yet. Mechanically it's perfect, but the frame is getting kind of sketchy for road use. The cab isn't great either. It's been sitting in the garage until I figure out what I'm going to do with it.

    Hey, I’m trying to lift my Toyota. Is the lift kit different from the 4WD to 2WD? If not, could I get a link to the lift kit you used?
    Edit: Nevermind, just found it

    • @6thGearGarage
      @6thGearGarage  4 года назад +1

      Yes they are diffferent when it comes to 2wd and 4wd. In addition to the fabtech kit, this truck also had swayaway torsion bars.

      You'd have to find out who manufactured that bed. I didn't see any manufacturer's markings on mine. Unfortunately, most of the different companies that made fiberglass beds for these trucks have gone out of business or stopped making them.

      Methodwake the 2wd frame is not the same. The front is different where the suspension mounts, maybe where the steering box mounts too.
