Purchased 1990 Toyota 4Runner

May 17th, 2012 - Another Craigslist find - a 1990 Toyota 4Runner, 4WD, V6, 5sd manual transmission with a bad engine. Perfect! That was exactly the vehicle configuration I needed for this project. It had a bad engine with some internal damage. Not sure exactly what was wrong, nor did I care. Had to put it in 4 low just to have enough power to drive it on the trailer. It's about a 30 footer - not pretty and needs some body work and paint, but I'll worry about that once the new diesel drivetrain is working properly.
