I bought them off ebay but they were like a carbon fiber look, i just ordered a set of actual blackouts for my white yota that are the same style from http://www.summitracing.com/parts/GTS-GT0968S/ yesterday.

Thanks! i LOVE these toyotas and the blue truck was my first major body work project... (it was pretty beat up when i got it fer $350!). im a fan of trophy trucks an stuff like that so i decided to do somethin different and tried out some fiberglass. i sold it to help pay fer the white tuck which im still in the process of building up.

There great tires and up here in Montana we get quite a bit of snow and ice during winter and in the spring time we get some gnarly mud pits and i've never managed to get either of my previous rigs stuck with the set of 285 75s i had (Ide literally have to pull out my buddies full size trucks cause everyone else would get stuck trying to get to them! kinda ironic seein a little 4cyl yota yankin trucks with bigger lifts and tires outa the mud...). you don't gotta worry about ice much down where you live but for a big wide tire they handle and stay pretty well planted on slick roads, Those Toyo MTs were the first MT tires i've ever owned but im pretty well sold on em, I really like the aggressive look of the tread pattern and side lugs too, the only down side is there pretty damn expensive but sounds like you got a good deal on em considering you only paid $650!

1980 Toyota 20R eng. L42 4 speed to L 52 5 speed
Have read several posts now about doing this but would like further clarification. Called Driveline.com they told me I most likely have an L42 tranny and an L52 would be a direct swap. How do you identify an L42- mine is a cast iron housing with allum bolt on bell housing and a allum. side plate where the gear shifter linkage goes into. They told me my 9 bolt side plate mounts to the top of the L52 and that a gear shift comes with the L52. Anyone have any experience with this. Is it a direct swap as told. Read a post here that the L52 is the more suitable swap for the 1980 Toyota with L42 tansmission & R20 eng. because the L series are the same length. Found a pic of an L52 and it appears that it bolts directly into the tranfer case and the gear shift on top is just before that where the L42 has a section for the side gear shift mount linkage that's between transmission housing and transfer case. Just need some help on whether this will work or not before I spend the $1,050 minus core charge and find out it won't fit. Thanx

Here is a pic I snapped yesterday, made a road trip to southern Missouri and picked up some 31's makes the rig look a ton better.
Hey Chef,
This is a great pic man, after reading your epic threads on your engine issues you standing with your rig makes it all worth it. Great Shot!
