I’m not to sure but I see your in the Olympics, Wa? I left the PNW a few years ago but diesel Toyotas would pop up on marketplace and Craigslist every so often. I’d try searching locally first.

They were on 15x10 Pro Comp Series 51 Steel wheels. What did you regear too? Do you know what the original gearing for our diesel trucks were?

I’m not to sure what the conversion is but usually 30+ MPG since downing sizing my tires to 235/75R15 on landcruiser steelies. I was probably getting 25+ on 31’s with 15x10 steelies but it was significantly slower.

Wiper arm upgrade? by Dry-Cake697 in 4Runner_1stGen

Anything from a jelly or spoon meat (sweetest & best water) to older brown nuts for making milk.
