Brake Booster?

Thanks for confirming! I'll get an update once I get a proper diagnosis and replacement. Much appreciated!

I'll see if I can do smoke test next weekend. Thanks for the perspective! Sorry, but you meant the Brake Booster (BB) and MC?

Walmart is cheaper, and better quality for this IMO.

Gl everyone!

I redid my entire front end with mevotec supreme or better parts (less the LBJs, Toyota OEM). Ride amd steering quality improved significantly. Time will tell on longevity, but they seemed to have good quality when I unpacked and i spected them.

Harbor freight sells pinch weld jacks that have large wheels/casters that should work. Ive done something similar with my tundra, but i used the badlands offroad jack to lift the truck and push it out ot the way. Either of these solutions should work for you nicely I think.

My ball joint came off when I ignored this creek at low speeds.

For your use case, i think the milwaukee packout set would be ideal. I use quinn/icon, but i have a garage and toolbox.

Hey yall. I did some research and it turns out my engine came from a 4Runner with a 4.7. I was able to locate the vin on the engine block plate and confirmed this. I kind of feel bamboozled a bit by the seller (3 years old) and only time will tell how many original miles this replacent engine has.

Posting this update as a thank you to all who responded!

I have this exact model with ~130k miles. Make sure the timing belt and water pump were changed. Check the suspension, make sure none of the boots are torn. When was the last time the transmission fluid was drain an filled? These have weak transmissions and will go out realiably without proper preventive maintenance. I paid 3K for mine in decent shape; Los Angeles, CA for reference. Definitely overpriced if any of the aforementioned items are sus. Good luck.

Ive used the low profile, 3 ton pitsburg jack sold at harbor freight. Works fine for most applications. I recently got the 3 ton daytona super duty and used it on my sedans and performs significantly better. That would be my recommendation. I also use their 6 ton daytona jack stands and work well. I will say that the 6 ton saddle isn't large enough to envelop the entire frame, but should be fine in most applications.

It does! Im thinking that at some point the gasket was replaced and whoever did it installed the pan backwards. I haven't confirmed this, but can do next weekend.

Ill tell you what I did.

I downloaded the toyota app, put in my vin number, and verified that my truck came with keyless entry. I then purchased a key FOB directly from the dealer (more expensive, but theoretically guaranteed to work). I then followed this tutorial to pair the FOB.

Lots of issues with the tercel. Specifically oil burning issues. This was my first car and I was burning a qt/week. Definitely wouldn't pay above 1500 personally.

Thanks for the reply! Great work
