you've come to the right place   Grasshopper 

that should be a G54 tranny,  is it a efi or carb??

[red [OP]]

i'll have to take another look but i know its either a w56 or a g54. completely stock except for the bumpers. the local toyota shop told me that the stock manual tranny was a w56 so i'll have to check it out. the engine is efi

also the engine is the stock inline 4, not the v6 or the turbo

yo red   go look under the hood,  um  on the firewall theres a tag with lots of little numbers and letters,  look for something like  G292,     and W56 or G54, G52,  etc...

My 86 has a W56 and its EFI.... seems to be the same for all 86's

i took a look under the hood and its a w56 tranny. nice to know that theres other people in texas who like toyota trucks for off road. most the guys i know say that unless its a chevy or a ford its terrible off road. one funny wheeling incident a friend of mine got his 82 chevy pickup stuck in the mud halfway up his doors when this other guy from san angelo passed by him in a 85 sr5 pickup in reverse. showed my friend what toyo's can do basicly stock except for add bigger tires

Yup toys kick

sry i havent been able to post any pics up yet, been busy fixing up my suburban so i can sell it. once that old tank is gone i'll have the money to fix up this 4 runner, get it ready to roll around again. my neighbor said that he hasnt touched it in 4 years so its in BAD shape! luckily he let me see if i could start it and by puttin gas directly in each cylinder and a new battery it actually started up! unfortunatly he left all the fluids in it for the past 4 years so the gas has turned into some kind of jello, really nasty
