I have never seen anyone work so quickly.

It's strange... I finally figured out why I like watching these car repair video with music. It's because someone is fixing a car and it gives me the feeling that my car is going to be ok for some reason.

I hope you keep the stock steel wheels. They look awesome.

I wish Toyota would make a compact truck like this again. I would buy one today. Keep it simple.

It truly isn't the guide that is the issue. It is the fact that the Chain is getting a lot of stretch then it wipes out the plastic guides. The metal backed guides will indeed keep you from chewing up the timing cover but still not the real issue. You can upgrade to the LC engineering double row chain kit and you will have a lifetime chain. I just did this on my 1989 with 102000 original miles. Nice truck you have there!!

Wow you just saved yourself hundreds of dollars on the labor work, good job!! Awesome truck now it’s ready for another 300k miles

It is so great to see a young man working with his hands in the times we now live in, the knowledge and ability to be an american that rebuilds and repairs with willingness what almost everyone else would discard. Only one thing, the next oil change start using Amsoil motor oil and BG product called MOA and the Toyota will surly make it's 1,000,000 mile mark!

HOW IN THE HELL YOU KNOW HOW TO DO ALL THIS!! ARE YOU MECHANIC???

The music makes it look I’m watching an episode of how it’s made

12:53 “not a lot of room for activities” was everyone thinking the same thing as me lmaoo

4 reasons why I'm going to subscribe to your channel!! I own a 94 Toyota 22re, I live about 30 minutes from you, seems cool and smart guy, and Jayhawks fan

Me and a friend replaced the timing chain and crank seal on my '88 two weeks ago. Runs a lot better. Took us about 10 hours but only cost $130

my dad loves these 80's and 90's truck, cool to see they're still on the road.

I watched both videos and this was FASCINATING! I owned one of these trucks back in the day. I bought it brand new for $8,000 and it was a really superb truck. Thanks for producing this superb content. Much appreciated.

The old 20R motors used 2 timing chains as well as metal backed guides and they never failed. That's why they changed it to 1 chain and plastic guides. If the trucks never died then no one would buy new ones lol. Planned Obsolescence is real and it is everywhere!

Great Job!!! My dad had an 1985 1 ton pick up he put 210,000 on and we loved that truck!!,, In 2011, It sold in one day and the guy who bought it was so excited ... it was fun to watch. Amazed how easy you made everything look, what a thorough job you did, and what a good mechanic you are !! also enjoyed your selection of background music😂. Always great to see somebody get a good buy...Hope you enjoy his truck and Thanks for the enjoyable video.👍🏻🆒

I've had an oil leak on my Toyota for 33 years...still going!✌🏼

I owned a 1987 EFI Torbo 4x4 "back in the day". I cried the day I hit some ice and totaled it. I thought of buying it back from the insurance company and fixing it up. I often kick myself for not doing it. I would love to still have that vehicle and be able to pass it down to my son some day. I absolutely loved that truck. It took me from Massachusetts to Alaska and back. Man, do I wish I still had it.

PE! Nice working. Enjoyed the video

Thank you, for another very nice video of what repairs that a Toyota from that time NEEDED done to them. !!! Also you got lucky with getting one without the crap auto hubs they made in 1985, and that cab looks so small inside compared to what the X-Cab has.

Good work young man. Keep the old stuff rolling.

I absolutely love these trucks! I have 3 and a 4runner, all with the 22re.

Love the vid and the presentation. Keep up the good work. Really informative enjoyable to watch and most importantly NO BS.

I remember these trucks back in the 80's. Great vid.

Thanks for sharing this truck and its journey with us! Glad such a gem is in good hands!

I love the set up of these truck, looks simple and fun to drive, great video 👍

Excellent video ! Much appreciated.

So sick! Glad to see you’re restoring it and keeping it alive. I absolutely love my Toyota Tacoma, I’ve always had a special place in my heart for these older Toyota’s. Awesome reliability plus old school is cool 👌🏼

Cool 1986 Toyota truck with turbo nice job on fixing it up to show you it's going to last forever thanks again for your awesome videos

Great video on your turbo Toyota. Love the bikes in the background as well. Nice to see someone who does know how to work on a vehicle instead of always taking it to the shop for repairs.

Awesome ! Thanks for sharing !

Great find. I had one of those back in the early 90's with a lift on it and 33's. It was cool. Sold it in 1995 and bought a new Toyota.

I would love to own that truck. Wow so simple and nice. Great little truck.

I love the way you conduct the video. Your very professional. Carisma is rare this days. You have plenty. 👍👍

Fantastic videos on this truck! I am the proud new owner of a 1987 4x4 and you've provided a lot of good insight. Hope to see more regarding this truck.

I wish they still made little trucks like these, they were really great. My father in law had an 82' Isuzu Pup pickup..lots of fun adventures in that little truck!

Very informative video I like the sub titles during the x5 speed sections great work / video

Thanks for making these videos, fun to watch and informative, ill soon get a Toyota of my own

Just so impressed with the wrenching skills, I definitely do not have the knowledge to do a job like that.

This thing is awesome. I remember watching my cousin do the exact same job on his when I was a kid back in the 90's. His was the same color and everything. It's nice to see these older cars/trucks escape harsh winters and road salt/chemicals. New cars and their features are nice. There's just something about driving a vehicle that's simple with little features.

Nice job. The tensioners went on my 1983 4 X 4 and I didn't replace anything other than the tensioners. It was so long ago I don't remember exaactly how I did it. I know I didn't follow the recommended procedure and did not pull the head. It ran until the frame rotted away. It was the first of a long run of Yota ownership. That truck was absolutely extraordinary in terms of dependability. I have one in my yard, with the newer 4 cylinder, that has 296,000 miles on it.

Thanks man. Just bought a 95 pickup. Has a small leak and clicking noise as you described. This helped point me in the right direction

Sweet Find man, That thing is damn cool ! I recently found a 96 '''2 door'' XJ 4x4 with 90,000 on the clock, that was driven by an old man and garage kept ! just now starting the exact same maintenance too lol. Yeah man' they're still out there Thank God!

Nice find, I love th 22r re rte series of engines. I just did the same stuff to my 87 4x4 and went with the double row timing chain and a 30lb flywheel for a little help on the inertial power loss while shifting. Next will be a new header and 2 1/4 inch exhaust system.

Great truck and video! The extracab trucks of the same vintage feel a lot roomier with bucket seats. I’m restoring an ‘86 4Runner. Love these old Yotas.

my first vehicle 12 years ago was an 86 xtra cab, 22R 5spd 4wd which i inherited from my dad when he passed, this video really brought back a lot of memories of that truck. amazing to see one so clean when they were notorious for bed rot. good luck with the project, the turbo RE's were rare birds! LC engineering does a lot of 22R platform stuff if youre ever looking for parts

I wish my '84 Toyota Pickup had a turbo EFI, but it was just an EFI truck, but it was awesome. I like your truck. I'm glad you bought it in such great shape.

Beautiful 2nd gen, that was a great purchase!

What a great vehicle! Subscribed.

Great video. Thanks

G'Day, the Hilux ute, was very popular in Australia in the 80's and ever since. These were everywhere, and were always the best.

Beautiful truck, even that lower front lip isn't all mangled or missing, no rust on the bed seam, amazing!!! As for the a/c, if your a/c compressor is still good, it should be a pretty cheap fix. My old Lexus SC300 ran R12, it leaked out somewhere, my mechanic found the leaky line, replaced it, charged it with R134, works great. Was like a $200 fix too.

Man that is a nice truck. Almost too good to use. Great job on the video!

Very similar to the infamous timing chain guides on the vw vr6 engine. Good work!

Good stuff, seen one T T back when I had hair on my head 2wd ext cab lowered I dig the music

Nice find. I still have my trusty '86 4Runner, 2.4 with 350K. Bought it in '88 with 37K. Luckily, been able to find genuine parts through Toyota. Enjoy watching the educational videos.

nice old truck man huge yota fan myself had them all my life up here in nova scotia they will never be as good as those days again

Really cool stuff man.

I just subscribed (even though I read you sold the truck 🤔) I have had a very original 1984 Toyota Supra for 8 years now and a lot of the parts inside and out are the same as your truck so it’s good to see how you do some of these major jobs. Thank you.

Like everything else, a fiddly job but not difficult. High marks for getting ahead of it, instead of carrying an extra quart and turning up the music. 😂

Wow the difference between an 1982 2.2 diesel engine timing belt replacement is huge u must have spent hours n hours doing this the diesel would have been done in half the time great job mate glad to see someone is caring for these old beauties !

Cool truck!

Great truck and repair.. like your videos

Beautiful truck.

Very freakn cool, I'd own one for sure. Thats 300zx looks minty as well

I think that little plastic component is making weird noises on my truck too!!! Thank for the detailed explanation!

Great job

Nice video, good car, looks pretty well.

Congratulations on great find. Good to see nicely produced video. I have FSM for gen II if you need any references I'll gladly take pic of needed pages, schematics.

I have two 86' Toyota Turbo 4x4 Extra cab pickups and absolutely LOVE THEM! Turbo all the way if you can. Hard to find them though.

New to the channel and love that you have my dream truck. One that i will get soon.

Time to use the 4x4 !!!! Lol great job bro!

The front-oil seal on the R engine line is a standard maintenance item... had one of these in black, one of the few cars I wish I hadn't sold...

OK, now I’m subbing. Great channel!

Damn nice truck. Thanks for the video.

I learned to drive in a truck just like that. No turbo though and it had some sweet alloy wheels. I would love to have one again...

My '85 Nissan 720 came with broken timing chain guides; and they WERE the metal style. I pulled some nice metal chunks out of the oil pan...

Dont use R134a. Its to hard for your compressor and condenser to use. It will make a load of head pressure and will really heat up your engine. Been there done that. Try a company called envirosafe, they make a r12 replacement for older systems.

show that baby some love ,,,,,they were built to be repaired and keep on trucking no electronics to complicate things simple mechanical repairs no plastic parts all metal built to last

Dig the stock wheels. Cool!

I see you don’t reply to comments but great job videoing/editing not to mention the incredible skills wrenching 🔧 👍🏻👍🏻

Wow... You deserve more subs.

I'v got a 1991 love to go back in time and have it new agen weeeeeeeeeeeee ...... thanks for sharing

Nice job bro. Love those rare Craigslist finds. That thing sounds like a diesel.

You're very lucky to own this 32 years old Toyota Hilux!. TLC will add another 30 years!

Just picked up a 1986 extended cap turbo, looks like i'm in for a run ride!

Classic!

Nice !

You make AWESOME VIDEOS! I'm starting to watch every one of them. You speak well, and the camera work is on point!I too just picked up another Toyota pickup for a project. Its not in as good as shape as yours, but not terrible either. Strait body, no rust, and pretty much unmolested other than the wheels and rear bumper being swapped out.Its a 1986 Extra Cab TURBO! Hell Yeah. Question... Who sells the 90 degree rubber boot that connects the intake plenum to the turbo pressure tube? Need help. Thanks again!

Susbscribed to your channel because of your truck. You should remove the bed and sand a the frame a bit and apply chassis saver coating. Only thing I hate about these trucks are rusty frames. Usually front part of the frame is preserved from oil leaks and rear part by the wheel will rot. V6 version of the truck junk it's a underpowered V6 with headgasket issues.

Peter, I have an 86 Turbo SR5 xtra cab with 227000 miles. Who ever owned it before me put a lot of new parts into it. Unfortunately they put them on themselves and you can tell they weren't an experienced mechanic. They did replace the timing chain with a dual row set up. I have the same oil leak problem as you when I first bough the truck it would leave a puddle everywhere I parked it. I resealed the oil pan and replaced the rear main seal and all was good until I took a highway trip with it. Now it's blowing oil out of the dipstick tube Compression is good checking all of the forums it looks like a broken piston ring seems to be a common problem. I'm curious to see if your fix works. I really don't want to pull the engine but for my own piece of mind I need to see what the previous owner did or didn't do.

Did this same job on my 97 Nissan.

Awesome truck brother. I wish I know how to do a timing chain. I can fix almost anything but I’m scared to mess up the engine

although its probobly too late most oil leaks stem from the timing cover not sealing to the head a very healthy dose of rtv usually does the trick

Good video! we can see here why this was not a good purchase for the impractical enthusiast. Since you can do your own work you saved thousands of dollars and headaches that this repair would have cost if you had to have some shop try to do this. For curiosity sake, it would be interesting to know what the vehicle plus the shipping cost. However, imagine buying this and not being able to do those "major" repairs...

You are the man?you are the man!!! Need a water pump and new transmission for my yota 1986 carburator too oh my God .is better a brand new truck for mi😭😭😭😭😭

Since you drained the cooling system, I would have replaced the thermostat & radiator hoses at the same time. (you did already have the radiator out.)

Nice truck dude. I'm from kansas city

Great video! Wondering about your preference for the blue sealant on the gaskets? Trying to decide which sealant to use on my rebuild.

Your front of the engine oil, leak can also be the oil pump. Had to replace mine and the leaked stopped.
