WTB: 94'ish Toyota 4cyl 4x4

[Quigs]

Been scouring Craigslist and it's bountiful amount of scams, but if someone happens to come across one with a 22R, I'd love to take it off of your hands.

They are a tough find because people hold on to them forever. Tacoma's are the balls

check to see if dbkromz still has his:

Frame recall has them selling and getting crushed thats why U can't find one...

[TheIglu]

Nope. 95.5's and up had the recall. 94's are not part of that.

sold that one, but it's a V6. i'm going to be selling my 89 4x4 soon, but it's a V6 as well.

any reason you're looking for the 22r motor?

I can wrench it like nobody's business, because I had two of them in High School and spent a good deal of time breaking/flooding/gooping them up off roading. I once got my '90 stuck overnight in a local pit (Brandy Brow, for any of you no the North Shore). It rained like the end of the world that night, and when I went with a buddy to drag her out, my engine was about 3/4 underwater, along with my exhaust. I'll be damned if the thing didn't fire right up and drive out of there. Ruined my seats, stereo, headlights and everything else, but I almost fell over when it turned over as though it was brand new.

I plan to commute with it in the winter, and an offroad toy is never a bad thing, so MPG + unkillable motor that I know how to work on = happy pants. I'm not completely against the v6, so when you're ready to let it go do hit me up if I haven't found something before then. 90-94 iirc are the golden years for these.

i love Brandy Brow! I drove a Yukon in HS that I used to beat senseless out there. Fun place for mudding with the quads and partying as well. Last I heard they'd started patrolling out there, but that was prob 5 or 6 years ago. I can't imagine how they effectively patrol that spot. I remember it before there were any gates, signs, anything. Any idea what it's like these days?

if you like wrenching...

free 1990 xtracab when you buy a custom bed $200 for ntc members

most of you know the truck, for those who dont, its sased, and has no drivetrain.

i have a 22re, rear axle, 4cyl transmission etc.... not included with the truck, but they may be purchased

[gus310]

check out http://www.searchtempest.com/ setup your search to scan the regions around you, then search for 22re, youll find a ton of stuff.

i know you said 94ish, but the 80's and 90's 22re trucks were all pretty solid.

heres a few results

you could also look for a t100, i believe some of those had a 22re, then switched to the 3rz-fe, which is a better toyota 4cylinder that was in tacomas from 95.5-current afaik.

if you want toyota trucks, sign up on toyotacrawlers.com, great bunch of local guys in a toyota based club.

[Quigs]

Right on, thank you! I wish I had the time to wrench that '90, but I need something that I can hop in and drive.

Much appreciated!

[TheIglu]

He's right, 3rz is a better motor. Better bottom end especially which is a weak point of the 22re's.

I got my 2002 4wd yota for 4k over this past winter, the deals are out there for those who are patient.

[Quigs]

Alright, I'm back from the desert and on the hunt again. Would love to score one for around 3k.

Edit: That searchtempest site is awesome Gus, thank you!

Thanks man. 190k is a bit much for mileage, there are a bunch out there for about the same price with 100-110k on the clock.

[Jim]

i just new spark plug wires and a starter on my 89 4x4. going to be getting rid of it next month, but the mileage is too high & i have a V6 motor.
