Re: Manual transmission maintenance

I'm going to do both steering rack boots as they both have a tear in them. I'm glad to see that I won't have to get a puller to remove the outer tie rod ends.

Re: Tercel 4wd & Corolla All Trac Wagon: Novice Questions

Great information! I'm a newbe also and am looking at both an '83 Tercel manual and a '89 manual all trac. What are the ground clearences and curb weight of each of the vehicles from '83 to last year they were built?
Also If I was to flat tow behind a small motorhome which ones would be best? Thanks
