Re: Reason for coolant line bursting, not circulating, missing fan?

JMack wrote: Sat May 29, 2021 8:17 am What’s puzzling to me is there was definitely a visible fan at one point, and it’s either no longer visible or is no longer there.
There should be a radiator cooling fan in front of the radiator.

Re: Radiator

Does anyone know if any other kind of radiator would fit on my 86 sr5. I am having a really hard time finding a new one. I have this used one from my 1985 SR5. It was never clear to me if it leaked from the tank gaskets or if there was leakage from around the hoses. The tank gaskets can be replaced...

Re: Looking for a drivers side front fender!

Too bad it is not a right fender that you need - I could easily help you with that. :(

That is quite a restoration project that you have taken on. I hope you post pictures, when it is finished.

Best wishes.

Re: Looking for a front wheel hub

In need of a front wheel hub ... I am striking out on the internet for some reason. For my 1985 Tercel sr5 4wd I do not know where to find new hubs or if new ones are even available. You did not say which side you need the hub for. From what I understood, replacing the race and bearing would not so...

Re: New Head Gasket Time

I just need a little time and patience in a junk yard and I'll have another one it. I do not know what is involved with shipping from the U.S. to Canada (i.e. customs) but here is a heater core, still in the duct housing, that has been box-stored, since 1995, after I removed it from a 1985 Tercel 4...

Re: Manual Steering?

Got a question on the steering racks in these. I cannot find new bushings for them anywhere, however I can find bushings for RWD corollas. They look pretty similar. Does anyone know if these would fit the Tercel rack, power steering and manual steering? I am not sure if this will help any but I hav...

Re: Window troubles

I have been dealing with limiting health challenges, for several months, now. If someone does not buy the whole doors and I finally feel well enough to dismantle them, I will let you know. I am not quite sure what would motivate me, right now. :?

Re: Body patch panels

Curious if anyone has knowledge of sheet metal patch panels for the Tercel wagon, specifically the fender and quarter panel upper eye brow areas? I have to say, no I do not have such knowledge. I do, however, have a right front fender from a 1985 SR5 wagon available (and a bunch of other parts post...

Re: Window troubles

Replacement new window regulators show up on ebay/amazon/rockauto every so often, but not reliably (perhpas it is just someone selling off old inventory). Maybe I should consider dismantling these doors and just selling the components, since shipping the whole doors sounds like more work than it is...

Re: 1985 Toyota Tercel Wagon SR5 forsale

I wonder how much it would cost to replace the passenger side rear fender, assuming I could find a match . Depending on how motivated you are, the front fenders come off fairly easily and you could probably pop the dent out somewhat, from the inside, with a little ingenuity, or take it to a body sh...

Re: Craigslist Roundup 3/24/21

... makes my garage full of Tercel junk....ah, spare parts, more valuable. Yeah, but trying to find buyers willing to pay what the parts are worth, especially on the east coast, is difficult. I have quite a few "like-new" parts (i.e. from a low mileage T4WD), posted on this forum, but a &...

Re: Request for a picture of a Stabilizer bar

What I was getting from his description was that the bar was not bent but he assumed that the ends should easily fit into the control arms, without effort, instead of squeezing/pulling the ends inward, with some kind of ratchet strap or something, to make it fit. From his drawings, it looks like he ...

Re: Request for a picture of a Stabilizer bar

Thank you very much ALiveSR5 for the picture. Is your lower control arm bushing collar is towards front or back? (it should be towards back as in FSM) You are welcome - glad it helped. :D In your other post about the bushings, the photos show their correct orientation. Petros also made an interesti...

This is from a 1985 Tercel 4WD wagon - don't know how similar or different it is, as compared to one for a 1987.
