this is my $100 dollar 85 it has everything I could figure out about an 85 sr5 except a/c it had an oil leak in the front end out of the balancer the bolt was loose we put a new front seal in it to be safe. then I rigged up an old tank in the bed to get it running and it fired up first try. it sat for 8 or 9 yrs it was last tabbed in 2000.
I want to completely restore it back to stock except for a rear locker and a front lsd.maybe some 31x10.5 mudders and that is it.

It's an 84 SR5, even has a sunroof. Has a bit of rust, but come next spring she will be torn down to the frame for overhaul.

I just bought a Powertrax No-Slip locker for the rear and am waiting for my 2'' lift shackles to show up. Then I'll be buying a set of 31x10.5R15 Dick Cepek Crushers.
