My 72 Ford locks up real fast. This one does just fine.

No injector harness to fall apart here, mechanical injection. Glow plugs harness might though.

I just finished rebuilding the front diff in our Jeep. And bought a clamshell bearing puller. It was godsend, I will never set up gears without it.

Marsh is good people. They helped me rebuild my truck diff a few years back. Pressed bearings on and off for me and whatnot.

Well yeah, as long as your truck doesn't fold an intake manifold over half your cylinders and trap heat and oil in there for 30 years, you should be fine.

Nice you keep your aspirations so low.

After owning this Toyo (2010) for the past 6 years, I may never buy another Toyota again. Every little thing about this truck screams "bean counters cutting pennies".
