In my experience the KYB shocks are a little stiffer than others I have used.

Inside? If so these may work. https://www.amazon.com/ECCPP-Handles-In ... B077SG8BZ1

Just a wee bit overpriced.

It leads to a Google sign in now. I don't have an account but it may now work.

I don't have an extra but they need to be lubed every so often. I usually disconnect at the speedo & transmission. Spray cable lube into the speedo side & turn the cable at the transmission side by hand. Spray a little more into the speedo side & turn again. Keep doing this until the cable lube appe...

Ideal would be 1985 toyota truck running gear with the 5spd trans. I don't know if mounting leaf spring brackets on the tercel would be a safe course due to the lack of a "real" frame. Samurai running gear would work also. The other concerns would be the trans hump in the car would have to be modifi...

Super nice Larry

Wow, thoughts go out to his family. Sorry to see this.

Some parts stores will loan tools, maybe Oreillys or Autozone in your area?

You can use a puller similar to this to remove it.

I had my first Tercel up to 90 in Montana back in the "Drive at a safe speed" speed limit days. It sure took a while to get there though. This was an 1983 5 speed car.

I have a 90 4runner with 390,000 on it & still working fine. Which engine does it have?

You must be near my elevation or a little higher. We are at 600ft. At the end of my road above us they have 37 inches but are at 1100ft. My locked 4runner with dual transfer cases has been driving right up the hill so far. I also have the tires at 12lb of air pressure which helps a ton.
