    Is a 200k Gen 2 worth buying?

    Unicorn for sure. I've been looking for an 80 series and good ones locked are $10K plus with a lot of miles. These days I'm not interested in anything with more than 150K miles and would prefer another Gen 3 sub 100K (looking). There is a local 2001 Tacoma for sale here with 225K miles for...

    Is a 200k Gen 2 worth buying?

    Closer to Land Cruiser, but any vehicle 25+ years old is going to need to be freshened. I'd hold out for an SR as well. 3.0l is gutless in this years series (I've owned 2). Kinda expensive for an LS unless you can get it under $2K. I know a lot of people here say that KBB is crap for an old /...

    GEN1 Steering wheel removal

    I'm surprised its so tight. I took the bolt out of the center in my Gen 2 ('93 no bag) and expecting to need to grab a puller I thought what the heck, gave it a good jerk and it came right off. Pretty sure Gen 1 & 2 (and maybe even Gen 3) are the same steering shaft splines...

    Auto Trans ID

    The Mitsubishi hydraulic controlled transmission is the AW372 / KM148 / AW372L /V4AW2 typically found behind the 3.0l V6 or 2.6L I4 '89 and older for the I4- all about the same except the AW372L has a lock-up torque converter. Its good for about 325hp / Nm torque. Aisin (Aisin Seiki / Aisin...

    Gen 1 front suspension upgrade guidance needed

    Manual transmission & V6 or 4 cylinder? No option for 4 cylinder for half shafts and Gen 2 conversion IIRC. If you have a 4 cylinder I think you will need to swap in a front differential from a Gen 1 V6 Manual transmission truck. Pretty sure all Gen 2s use 28 spline half shafts (4 cylinder is...
