91 Toyota Pickup DLX 4x4 3.0L V6 Upgrade (New interior,Restored truck cap,New bumper)
91 Toyota Pickup DLX 4x4 3.0L V6
My Yota has been parked up for a couple years. The Tranny would jump out of first gear so i started to use the Second Gear and it wore out. The truck needed a Tranny and a Clutch. I ended up getting a used tranny from the junk yard, and paid a mechanic to install the tranny, a new clutch and while he was at it do a tune up.
I got the truck back from the mechanic shop about a month later. The truck felt good, but the was a knock when i turned sometimes. I remember Toyota sending me a recall notice for steering rods so i decided to give them a call. They then informed me of 2 recalls on the 91 toyota pickup one for the steering rods and another for the head gasket. They told me to bring it asap. I could not believe Toyota was doing a recall on a 1991 in 2013. Toyota held my truck for almost 2 months. When i got it back It felt like i had a new truck, unfortunately the knock was still coming from the passenger side front wheel. When i checked it out it ended up being the sway bar link bushings $7 fix autozone. Now the Truck is in tip top shape. A new/used tranny
, New Clutch, New head gasket, and New steering rods.
During the three months the truck was being repaired i decided i wanted to get new seats. because the old 60/40's were wore out, dirty, slightly ripped, when i sat down my tail bone would rub directly on the cross bar in the middle of the seat. And i could never find seat covers for them. So i started looking for bucket seats on google, they directed me to ebay, and a Ebay Monster was created. I always hated the interior so i decided if i am changing the seats why not the whole interior, and upgrade my truck So i went crazy in the three months, Here is my list:
New Autopal lights, rear lenses covers, push bar with Off road lights, new rear bumper, spray paint for interior black Vinyl Fabric spray paint, new Led red dash lights with new indiglo dash cluster overlays, powered windows and locks, new 2 way alarm, Buckets seats and a hand rest console, Herculiner truck bed paint for Snugtop Cap, lock for truck cap, new car audio system, bugdeflector and rain guards, 31in Tires and a cat-back exhaust.
Looking up 91 Toyota pickup interior mods on google lead me to Yotatech and the rest is history.
I will be adding pictures of Interior mod progress and installations.
This pic is when i got it back from Toyota New Head Gasket and steering rods.

Lemme know if you want a custom-made real cupholder for your rig that mounts on the floor in front of your new center console. There's a local guy who fabbed one for me, and it was reasonably priced (I was having other [expensive] work done, however).
