Lifted With A Mercedes 300sd Turbo Diesel Motor Inline 5 Cylinder on 2040-cars
Louisville, Kentucky, United States
|
I have a Very Rare 1985 Toyota 4Runner SR5 (last year with solid front
axle) with a 3.0 liter OM617.952 Turbo Diesel for sale. Motor has been
in the truck for a little over a year and has been my daily driver/road
trip/Camping vehicle. Last year I drove 1600 Miles Round Trip to NYC and
back without the slightest problem. Currently 17,xxx miles on the swap.
Specs: - 4" suspension lift - 63' Chevy Springs in the back/ HD Rough Country springs up front - 35" BFG All-Terrain Brand New. (Still has the tabs from the injection mold.) - Solid Axle. (was cut and turned to correct drive angle. (Moved forward 3" for better approach)) - Axle was rebuilt about a year and a half ago - High Steer - Square Tube front D/S Balanced professionally (0 Vibration) Need new Teflon bushings to quiet the chatter at low speeds - Gusseted for support - Steering dampener - Tom Woods Custom Rear D/S - Stainless Braided Brake Lines - Custom Fabricated Oil Filter Relocation Adapters to allow easy filter access - Rebuilt Turbo - OM617.952 Motor - New Head Gasket (installed while the motor was being fitted) - New Monark Injectors. Pop tested @ 2000psi - Modified Alda - Modified Injector Pump (Rack Limiter Removed) - Hybrid 8 Puck Clutch/New Pressure Plate - Front Mount Oil Cooler - Dual Manual Controlled Cooling Fans - 4000psi rated 3/4 and 1/2 hydraulic lines for oil delivery - 2.5 Turbo Back Exhaust - Gets 22 Mpg pulling up 5% Grades in WV and 25 Mpg running around local highway/City (haven't tested with new 35" tires) - New Timing Chain - New Fuel Lines - Transmission is a stock W56 capable of withstanding the Torque of the Straight 5 Diesel - Top Shift Transfer case - Stock SR5 Altimeter/Inclinometer - Aftermarket VDO Boost/EGT gauges with 4Runner Specific 2 Gauge Pillar - All stock gauges function except for the RPM Gauge - Leather Specialty Toppers Soft Top (included) - Hard Top w/ Integrated internal LED lighting (Very Bright) - Rear Mounted Battery (backup) The Bad: - Typical Rust over the rear tires on the fender This is an incredible truck and is always getting looks, comments, double takes, questions anywhere I go and when people hear that it is a diesel, the response never gets old. Never been stuck anywhere yet. I am pretty light on the truck as it is. I go by the "it is better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it" with this thing. Never sees over 60 mph, and rarely sees boost over 6 psi. I built this truck to be a good gas mileage/Ultra Reliable/Versatile/Utilitarian Rig and it has become just that. I have no real reason to sell it other than to see what I could get for it, and I have recently moved into the city and parking this can be interesting. I would possibly trade for a WRX, but it would have to be near stock, and would prefer a wagon. NO AUTOMATICS I will not entertain low-ballers. There are only 6 that I have seen like this ever and this one is the ONLY one in within kentuckiana/ohio. The next closest is a project underway in Southern TN. I have receipts and pictures along with video for nearly everything and every mod. Also have every Fuel Fill-up since the swap, minus 2 or 3 when the printer at the pump didn't work. Thanks for taking a look!! |

Toyota recalling 20k 2014 and 2015 cars and CUVs with 3.5L engines
Thu, 18 Sep 2014Toyota has announced a recall of roughly 20,000 vehicles covering the 2014 Avalon, Camry, Highlander (pictured) and Sienna, as well as the 2015 Lexus RX luxury crossover. The affected vehicles are all powered the 2GR-FE engine, which in layman's terms, is Toyota's well-regarded 3.5-liter V6.
According to Toyota's statement, a parts supplier might not have welded "the end cap on the right-hand fuel delivery pipe in the engine compartment" correctly, meaning fuel could leak. Leaking fuel, of course, increases the chance of an engine fire. That said, no fires, crashes or injuries have been reported due to the issue.
Owners will be notified to report to dealers, where techs will check the fuel delivery pipe and fit a replacement part as necessary.
2014 Toyota Highlander greets the world with NYC debut
Wed, 27 Mar 2013Toyota has pulled the wraps off its all-new, 2014 Highlander in New York this morning, giving Americans a first look at what is sure to be a heavyweight in the mid-size crossover segment.
The new third-generation Highlander will come with the buyer's choice of three different powertrain options. The base model will be powered by a 2.7-liter four-cylinder engine coupled to a six-speed automatic transmission with front-wheel-drive. Next up the ladder is a 3.5-liter V6, also mated to the 6AT, which can be had with either front-or all-wheel-drive. Finally, the Highlander Hybrid will be equipped with all-wheel drive, its 3.5-liter V6 mated to an electric motor, all hooked up to a continuously variable transmission (CVT). The automaker has not released any specs for fuel economy or output yet, though we're promised increases in both power and efficiency.
While not a revolution in terms of styling, Toyota has cleaned up the bodywork for the new model, offering a crisp, conservative look for the slightly larger Highlander. The vehicle is some three inches longer and an inch-and-a-half wider than the outgoing model, yet it has a lower roofline. Black plastic-clad wheel arches make an attempt to butch up the crossover, though to our eyes, the Highlander still has the look of a minivan around the rear view.
Mazda's new Mexican plant capacity rises to 230,000
Sat, 05 Jan 2013After the turmoil of last year, 2013 is getting off to a much better start for Mazda. The company has issued a release indicating that the forthcoming plant in Salamanca, Mexico has had its production capacity raised even though it isn't scheduled to go online until March 2014. The original plans called for a 140,000-unit capacity, 90,000 of that allotted for the Mazda2 and Mazda3, the remaining 50,000 for a small car Mazda would build for Toyota that would be based on the Mazda2. The new plans call for raising that by 90,000 units to a total of 230,000 units within two years, by the end of March 2016, and it looks like it will all go toward Mazda production to satisfy growing demand for Skyactiv vehciles. The Mexican plant's opening will be the return of Mazda manufacturing to North America, after Mazda6 production was moved back to Japan last year.
More good news for the company is that it projects 10 billion yen ($114 million) in net income for the financial year that will end in March. That would be a welcome turnaround from the 100-billion-yen loss in the previous financial year, part of a series of three annual losses in a four-year span.
You'll find the press release with the factory update below.
