Front wheel bearing & seal

I have a new in the box Toyota front wheel bearing and seal kit for sale. It's leftover from my first car long ago, an 85 Tercel wagon that served me well for 10 years.

I'd be happy with $20 and the cost of shipping.

Re: New Fuel Tank Availability

I put a new tank in my 85 about 8 years back. Got the tank from the dealer, I don't think they where available aftermarket at the time. The fill spout was a little different, didn't have a drain and didn't quite fit like the original.

Re: Exhaust Gasket Replacement?

This job has now evolved into a head gasket replacement! A small but persistent quantity of exhaust in the rad was a rather disconcerting sight. Oh well. As long as the head isn't warped I may not even have to deal with the manifold now.

Thank you all for the advice and recommendations. I ...

Exhaust Gasket Replacement?

I need to replace the exhaust/combination manifold gasket on a 3-A. I'm concerned about shearing studs when removing the manifold. There probably isn't much for it, they either come off or they don't, but I would like to know if anyone has done this job?

Did you have problems with the studs ...

Re: Selling/parting out my 83 4wd SR5 for $300

I don't suppose you would be interested in shipping a rear passenger door quarter window up to BC?

Saw this thing in Vic over the holidays, had to look twice. Not too often a person sees one of these being looked after so well.

Heater Blower Motor, 85

Swapped mine out, ended up being a wiring problem when I got it all torn down.

The old one looks to have a great deal of life left in it. The brushes appear to have ~1/4" left on them.

$40

I'm guessing you already have one, given that we are now well into winter, but I've got a motor. just replaced mine, by the time I had the new motor, and the dash apart I found the problem was wiring related.

The brushed appear to have ~1/4" left. Looks like it has lots of life left in it.

takza,

Car manages alright, although a bit more clearance would be nice. I changed the ATF after installing the cooler. The old stuff was toast.

The only time I've run into serious problems with lack of torque is on hills I really should not have been on. Most anything that was intended for a ...

Bit of a side note.

I ended up with a problem involvong overheating. A direct result of very steep, very long logging roads requiring 4wd.

I've got the automatic, so I ended up installing a truck sized trany cooler upstream of the rad. Put it in place of the AC evaporator I don't have.

Picked ...
