  Actually had 4 of the SFA 4x4 PUs 2- 83s and 2 -85s .......my Wife made me get rid of 2 of them[ all of my trucks are/were 2seaters} and we bought a "family Yota" a 2004 TRD dbl cab , feels and drives like a Lexus compared to my others. Now the family can hit the mountains in one vehicle. :smooch:

Welcome to the forum.  :beerchug:

I'm envious of your early Toy experience and collection.  As I have said before, I admire and applaud those who keep these legendary pickups alive.  :thumbs:

I'd give my left testicle to have my 1985 22R 5-speed shortbed back!!  :gap:

Gnarly4X, A big THANKS to ya !
Sometimes I feel like I don't have a choice but , I've owned them all my life {16/17 yrs old and legally licensed } as far as the older 80's 1st/2nd gen 4x4s....they kept/keep popping up around here, when I first moved here I made a nice "side living" from repairing older Yota 4x4s that needed timing chain, clutch , head gasket blown, They were always for sale cheap. Then I'd flip em over and they would sell like hot cakes , butter & real maple syrup at kids camp.





Appreciate the acknowledgment and feedback,
