  • I picked up an '84 single cab, long bed. This truck has issues, head gasket leaks, transmission is stuck in gear, knuckle bearings need rebuilding, wiring is old and all over the place, emergency brake doesn't work; the list goes on. My plans are to rebuild it like this, only paint it cammo. Could you give me some websites that you've ordered from before? I'm having trouble finding any that sell parts. Thanks, Joe

  • Did u have to do any mod with the body lift

  • Im a dodge fan.. and i never would have thought i would like a toyota. i would actually like to own one of these trucks for a second vehicle. looks fun to drive and mess around in:) too bad my dad is the big 3 fan! he hates toyota.. but cant blame him.. he was raised on chevy..

  • Love that carburated sound.

  • Really nice clean yota you've got there. And i think the 22r sounds amazing! You should get the head from a 20r to give it that little extra edge.

  • Really nise clean yota you've got there. And i think that 22r sounds amazing.

  • I have a 84 pickup with similar engine mods but mine is bored out to a 3.0 and wont idle cold for the life of itself i think i need to burn a hotter ignition anyone know if that will help with cold idle?

  • nice truck! idles like a v8 but revs like an i-4!

  • whats the difference between a 22r and a 22re?

  • @apierce7565 22r is carbed and 22re is fuel injected.

  • sounds like you got some bad plugs or something,, exhaust leak?

  • bad ass yota dude

  • i got 85 im building up trying to find the fine line between street legal and rock crawler. if i were you tho i would upgrade to crossover steering maybe even high steer too and the powersteering made a huge difference on mine

  • great looking and sounding truck. big thumbs up!

  • hey can you send me the site you got your pipes from or what kind they are thanks

  • Love the roll cage, were can i get one like that?

  • This era of toyota trucks are the best trucks of all time. I have one with 270,000 miles and still going strong!!! HELL YEAH

  • sound like a boat

  • sounds good dude. id like to get my idle like that haha i just put up a vid of my exhaust. it sounds alright for now

  • Comment removed

  • that thing sounds awsome ! I want my 88 2wd to sound like that. cudos on having the idle set up where it should be instead of havin it set so low it barely idles and makes the cam sound bigger. I think this is the only yota video i cant hear any rocker tappin in either.

  • Sounds like a John Deere!! definitely one of the nicest yota's i've seen on here

  • how do you make a non power steering easier to turn?

  • sick body lift roll bar and exhaust tip!

  • Sounds nice!!!

  • Sounds like a hit and miss engine running wide open

  • wat is that a crotch rocket motor it sounds stupid

  • tht was on my bday i got a 80 but mine is blue

  • i used to have one same colour....

  • That's just a 3inch rancho????

  • Nice truck, you should see MINE, I got The NICEST, Baddest 85 red x-tracab

    in the US, You won't get any POWER unless you put the CAT and a decent muffler back on, trust me Iv'e Been there, done that......Iv'e been building toyota's for 30-years  :) ....

  • envy

  • did u do any engine modifications?

  • Mine was doing that same thing. i got a valve job done..... Runs Great !

  • Nice truck bud, but you got waay to much money in that...but to each his own!

  • i cant tell if its camming or skippin like a mother fucker but somethings sounds wrong

  • aftermarket cam? if so what's the spec's? and what cherry bomb is that???

  • why the sputtering sound?

  • @Rolanxcore high lift cam

  • Sweet truck man, can you give me some specs on that cam and where it's sweet spot is in the rpm curve, who makes the cam and how much? Thanks and Deo Vindice

  • what did you use to give it height. cause i have an 86 and i want it around that height maybe a bit taller. so if you could give me the deatils on what you used that would save me so much time thanks :)

  • cool i have an 89 2wd ...next will be an 85-88 body style 4x4 back to the future style

  • Where did u get the rims from? I want some for my toy.

  • Thats a clean ass 84 toy! Does any body know about some 80`s models having vent windows? The toyota trk in back to the future has them.

  • Comment removed

  • Thats a clean ass 84 toy!

  • does anyone know where i can find some new plastics for the inside of the cab? the plastic that is around the keyhole on the steering wheel is starting to decay and i need some new ones. also the plastic area down by the feet(by the fuse box) is starting to decay too. the previous owner was a smoker and the plastic is all cracking and crumbling away.

  • RUST!! I hate it. My 85 has a lot on the bed. I sholdn't have neglected it.

  • 5/5

  • letting a few small rust spots go to rusting the whole bed out is kinda lazy if you ask me. your local parts store should sell a product called "dyno hair" just sand out the rust spots spread some dyno hair (a fiberglass/bondo mixture) smooth in the rusted out spots and sand down smooth... its what the pros use restoring old cars and trucks. dont let that truck rust away its too nice for that

  • add a bigger exaust tip on there and it will sound like a beast i got like a exaust tip twice the size of a coke can

  • hey nice truck. can you tell me about the shackles? what advantage do they add?

  • Awesome truck!!!

  • 96bluball your fucked up. Ford turns circles around all. My weedwacker sounds better than that waste of money.

  • looks good!

  • Alot of people fight over chevy and ford lol they forget about the toyotas. There so underestamated (or however you speel) there more reliable and can ride circles around both kind of trucks in the mud lol o yea great looking truck by the way

  • @96blueball You got that right! I always thought chevy was number one! Until my cusin got his first 4x4 toyota trk! Man! That thing would go throught every thing! They are damn well built trks! Just got a 85 4x4 extra cab with the 22re. I think I paid a little 2 much 2250.00 its got a lot of miles 300,000. But thats ok,its got a good frame and the motor run good with no smoke and its a automatic. may replace it with a standard trans. Its stock, I was wondering what size tires to put on it.

  • @jason127x99 I would rather pay a little to much for something you know is worth the price then to pay to less and break down on the way home. Im actually fixing to buy a 83 toyota sitting on 35'' inch tires. It has a 3'' inch body life and a 6'' inch suspension on it. That thing is a monster. They only thing different is the guy put a 305 small block v8 in it lol so there goes my mpg's hahah but ummm i seen them trucks look good with 33's on it, I really wouldnt go any less.

  • you should put a grill guard on it it would look even cooler

  • nice truck exhaust sounds not to bad and looks even better.

  • thanks my weber is awsomse the only thing is it lowered my hill climbing capabilities.

  • rig sounds mean as hell, how much power you puttin down?

  • in cab tac views next time

  • Congratss ,that lil' truck looks so asskicking!!!!it kinda luck like the one from Back to the future,it's sad that nowaday is very hard to get a truck like that,mine is a 03 tacoma same color as yours but I'm jealous for yours!!!!

  • @pamlico73 That is probably what I will do.

  • how did u put ur lift in man? and what kind is it i got a 87 and it looks almost identical

  • bad ass truck i have a 1985 4x4 in proces of reconstruction i"m going to pained red too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @luisLuna1974hotmail THX! get it on youtube when your done with it!

  • @luisLuna1974hotmail red is the color to have

  • how did u get the antenna coax into the cab? did u drill holes?

  • @brandonkr I ran it down the back of the cab and under on the back passenger side to a rubber gromet and cut a x out on the gromet and ran it up that way to the radio.

  • @superbazooka213 where did you get that roll over bar from? and how much did it cost?

  • Hey i started a post on yota tech about 22r camshafts, has a lot of good info there.

    Google "eb 268 vs stock cam" I think the 261 would be better for what i'm doing.

  • If you are just going to let the bed rot, yank it, and throw on a flat bed... Donate it to me. I can even provide a rotted one you can hack up, and use to make the flat bed.

  • i might soon it really dosnt sound crazy but it is bad for 22r.. i need a video camera

  • damn i'm jealous

  • does the weber carb. make alot of difference?

  • Stock vs performance carbs make a huge difference, stock is going for "acceptable" power, where as AM carbs go for efficiency and power...

  • i have to say that idle is awesome very nice truck shell last 4 ever.

  • ya bro thanks for letting me know about ur rig that cam sounds nasty! i got a 22r pushes out to a 2.7 bored and stroked over 200hp to the crank custom grind crank i love it.... but its a single cab:[

  • Thanks anyway, i have a weber 32/36 on my 4 runner and i get 18-20 mpg with 4.88 gears and 33'' tires. It runs great, i started it today after sitting for 2 weeks, hit the gas once, and it fired right up. Sweet truck you have. I have some vids on here, check them out.

  • Comment removed

  • So what cam are you running? I have a EB 268 cam in my 4runner, but i'm looking for something else, Your truck sounds good, how does run?

  • To be honest, I have no clue on what brand the cam is but the mechanic that rebuilt the engine said it was a mid size cam and the truck runs great! It sucks the fuel like crazy but that is due to both barrells are open and the choke is all screwy. I have a Webber that i will be getting tomorrow "Christmas day" and hipefully I will get it on in the next week or two and Ill make a video of that also and mabey the install.

  • @pettybilt

    Haven't installed em yet, but I've got the EB 261 cam and their Street / RV head to go on the truck. How do you like the 268? according to their ebay page, the 261 is sportier than the 268, having a little more top-end and a bit of chatter on idle so it doesn't sound stock. Wondering if I am making a good decision by installing these parts

  • my dad just sold his and hes yet to buy another one u really cant break a 22r can u lol

  • Those damn things were so far ahead in 1984 it wasn't funny. Must've been garaged most of it's life, or you've done a helluva restore. Very nice :)

  • Thanks for the GREAT comment,

    I really dunno the history of it other than the previous owner, he was a teen and ran the crap out of it. It looked this good when I bought it from him. I do have 3 or 4 spots of rust above the front windshield and back windshield. I want to get that fixed and if the bed rust out, then flat bed here we come.

  • The puff of smoke you saw come out of the exhaust is where my stock Asian Carb has a messed up choke and other probs, it loads up and uses the hell out of gas. I have a good ole Webber on the way and that should fix her right up and fix the crappy gas millage and me having to hold the throtle on it when it is cold, as in 32 or 33 degrees outside cold. If I have cranked it and go back to crank it in 3 to 4 days, she will fire right up and idle fine, any more setting than that..no go hold the gas.
