My car won’t start coz of the Torque Converter issue. Took it to a mechanic and he said he couldn’t find any for my car. It has been almost a month since then, I can’t find any Torque Converters even in Toyota Dealerships saying “it’s been discontinued”
Where else can I find ?
Calgary, Ab, Canada
Obviously a world of difference compared to nearly bald, 20yro no-name tires. White letters FTW.
After much deliberation, I’m keeping it. Plan on cleaning it up, getting it running, and make it stock + (no crazy mods).
Thanks for all the input on my previous post. I’m sure I’ll be posting here for help/updates.
If anyone has guidance for the first steps in fixing it up that would be appreciated.
4.3 V6, Howell fuel injection, 5 speed manual, Sanders headers, 5.71 gears, ARB lockers front and rear, Marlin crawler dual transfer case, FJ 80 master cylinder with rear disc brake conversion, 3 link with coil spring rear suspension, and etc..
Bought it last fall it had been sitting for awhile. Been working on it got it up and going and ready to go have some fun.
Some of you may recall that a while ago I was asking for advice about what to do about a 1986 22RTE which blew its motor (I now wonder if it was mostly the turbo that blew up, but the milk is spilled now).
Just under a year ago I posted a picture of myself starting the year down of the donor and host trucks. I got it to about half way and then a friend came this past weekend and we got it to about 95%. It actually started briefly. Still need to pipe in the intercooler and get the vacuum system working right. But it’s close!
(Also gotta remove those dumb spacers and a couple vanity items)

My old throttle cable got all chewed up and no longer works, I got a new one from O’Reilly and it is too long. I’ve seen online that people have trouble with this. Any advice? Should I just buy a universal kit? I think it might be a cable for a EFI but mine carbureted. A link would be awesome if anyone finds one.
can someone tell me what year this front grille is?
completing the heater core change after 40 years, one of the clips that holds the heater control cables broke. No problem, I ordered new ones and the one that goes to the engine bay, that one went fine but the one that controls the cables to the cold and hot. I can't seem to insert it into the slot after aligning the cable inside the slot. Any advice?
Swapped a 2nd gen 4Runner 22re into my 1st gen 4Runner and now realizing the plugs on the injectors didn’t match. Since my 1st gen injector harness was falling apart, I cut and spliced new pigtails to adapt to the 2nd gen 4Runner injectors, however I’m seeing stuff on high impedance.
Is there a way I can run these 2nd gen 22re injectors on my 1st gen without frying anything? Or do I have to cut and get new connectors again, and also get new injectors…
Running 5vzfe with 02 sensors and complete harness . Vehicle fuel lines and other items can be included for swap at no extra cost local pickup only.
Has anyone had luck sourcing new seat cushions? If so from where? Thanks.
I have been driving my 87 4Runner for 25 years as my primary driver. now that I have another vehicle, I can finally focus on restoring it. Any advice on where I can find interior replacement panels and such online? I also would like to find parts for the sunroof as it leaks when it rains.
I recently purchased two sets of the OMESB6 Bushings alongside new CS009R leaf springs for my 1987 Toyota 4Runner and noticed that bushing sleeves for the front mounts of the leaf springs were not included. I tried to look online to find what part number is compatible with these parts but came up empty handed.
Does anyone by chance know the part number and or specification of the bushing sleeves I need that would be great.
Thank you very much!
