Yep, I'm looking for one also. Needs to be pull from a pick up, not 4runner. I just measure one from a 4runner and way too long, needs mod.
Going, going, gone

for wat its worth, i toook the carb tank on my 85, and just cut the hole a lil bigger, and use self tapping screws to screw in the sendning assembly from the efi tank, added some silicone before i did it, and it worked perfect

To fit the gas tank? Well mine came off an 89 it the third gen gas tank is a bit bigger. I had to modify the crossmember above the gas tank and relocate a shock mount. I was told after the fact that a second gen tank will just bolt right up. Hope that helps.

2 ways to do it. Easy and harder.

Can swap everything including dash harness and cluster from donor truck, or you an rewrie and repin everyhing to work on the 1st gen. Both are pretty much sraightforward swaps though, try to get a complete donor truck.
