Sun's coming out, figured might as well do something new for me.

The area isn’t flat so not sure if extending the panel is the right solution.

On a ‘87 22-RE with ~270K mileage. My head gasket is leaking coolant ( white smoke in the exhaust ) I did the gasket and timing chain my self 60K miles ago, probably did a shit job. I took a weekend. I’m trying to decide on doing just the gasket or doing a full rebuild. I was wondering about the time it takes to pull and rebuild vs. just doing the head. Any thoughts?

Anyone here done it? Was it worth the 6-10k it's probably cost? (I don't weld). What's your experience? The Total Chaos kit is 5200$

This pic is in a Land Cruiser HJ47, but the knob is a reproduction of the 1st gen 4runner, 1st/2nd truck... 2,000 units available within two months time

Getting conflicting information that says the 3rd gen like this part number 00550-35976 fit but haven't been able to confirm. Shooting for everything to look as close to period as possible.

1st gen heater control valves sell for over $100. Has anyone here fitted a more affordable version designed for more recent generations?

Finally got the truck dialed in and thought I’d give BaT a try and make sure it goes to an enthusiast. Anyone here ever listed there?

I’ve done a bunch of good used motor swaps. And a couple dirty cheap rebuilds. But this one is the “nice” one. I didn’t realize how much more work it is. Every time I see the proverbial “light at the end of the tunnel” I find something else that needs attention. But now I have to do it. Every bolt. Every part must be clean and perfect. I am being held hostage by my 4runner. Send help. LOL.

But in reality I’m happy I’m doing it right. Hopefully she appreciates it and treats me right for a long time.

Got this for $1500. Runs drives stops. Restoration time! What ya’ll think? Worth the 15?
