I may put the other one I have on the passenger side. replace the woos hook. That way I have 2 good front high lift points, nor that I have a high lift mind you.

Almost forgot:
Land Rover Discovery Horns
Alfio,
Yes, with two exceptions. Interior and exterior temperature probes.
and the usual:
12v constant
Ignition
Illumination
Dimmer
Ground
I am going to post a 'how to' write up with the wiring diagram to Toyota conversion when i install mine. Should be finished in a week or so. I am mounting this unit IN my dash since it doesn't really fit on top like the Toyota type....i also have my entire interior out of the 4Wallet right now, so everything is accessible.
P.S. The Dimmer function on this unit is wacky...the light in the Compass/Temp gauge does the opposite of your dash lights when dimmed...dim speedo = bright compass. So i bypassed the compass lights...i'll give more detail in the write up.

Picked up a Caddy Fleetwood horn for $5. Got my eye on a roll bar from a 1st gen thinking about putting it in the back of my 2nd gen.

Never gotten anything from a junkyard, but parts I've gotten from and with other Toyota vehicles I had for short amounts of time...
86 Turbo Pickup, 84 frame, extended cab, axles, rotted bald 40" Dick Cepek tires, 15x10 steel wheels (rolling chassis) - cost $1500
Parts taken: 22RTE, R151F and transfer case, sun visor brackets, a few random interior screws, 84 front and rear axles, leaf springs, 15x10 steel wheels, gave the tires away to my buddy for trailering the other truck back while I towed the turbo truck.
Sold for $500 with my old 22RE and W56 with 361,000 miles on them.
85 4runner with blown head gasket:
-a million interior parts that were in decent shape either necessary or for extras, front bumper
-this entire truck cost me $300 and now I have a 302 and T18 4 speed in it with no interior or unnecessary weight-this is my mud bog truck
Parts begged, borrowed, and stolen from friends' trucks:
86 pickup:
-complete 4 cyl rear axle - $100
-shift knobs (not faded or worn shift diagrams) - free
-aisin manual hubs - can't remember cost there
-stock rear U-bolts - free
89 V6 Pickup:
-4" Trailmaster IFS bracket lift complete
-V6 front center section/diff (larger bearings) - all together $150
-5.29 4cyl 8" Yukon gears and install kit uninstalled - $120
And lastly, my black 4runner on which all of these parts have gone I originally bought from the original owner for $300.

I have terrible luck, let me just say that.
but for whatever reason the pick n pull gods smile upon me once in a while.
my scores for my '80...
vents tubes and defroster vents.
Heater knobs.
Power steering hoses, reservoir, pump, bracket. (got the box off craigslist, but found a box out there in picknpull like two weeks ago, that has been out there the last 5 times i've gone, wtf)
chrome side vent decal thingys
chromed grill (neither of which are on my truck...more of extras)
Wiper motor
exhaust manifold
steering arm that goes from box to wheel
rear bumper off an 88
weber 32/26 w/ air cleaner almost brand new (f*@%-yeah!) $79
and i found a deeper sound for my air horn that i didnt buy(was cracked....lame)
I feel like theres more but oh well...
currently i'm lookin for a pair of prelude or integra seats, and a new map light....plus anything else i come accross...you know...cough..offy intake..cough..headers...whatever
add on: I forgot, i also scored all the stuff i need for A/C off craigslist for 50 bucks! not a junkyard, but hell of a score so i thought id share

are the bigger boosters and master cylinders on the 1st gen equipped with the V6 or are they only on the 2nd gen.
I need a new booster for my 86, would one from an 89 bolt right up?

Yes an 89 Booster will bolt up. Basically when you are shopping for a new booster, just be sure you get a dua diaphram booster from a V-6 truck. I used one out of a 97 Tacoma, bolted right up.

yes they all interchange. grad the master cyl while your at it though. till i put the 1" master on mine, the pedal was spongy as hell with the dual and smaller master. Some 4cyl models had the dual diaphragm and 1" master just look for a booster that looks like this:
