New here. Been working on these trucks for 20+ years. Currently have an '89 V3500 crew cab, '90 GMC V1500 Suburban and an '88 K5 Blazer. Also have a '79 CJ5, '81 CJ8, '90 YJ and a '94 Toyota pickup I mess with.

Currently in the middle of an engine replacement on the '90 Suburban.

Welcome to the site. You started off really well, then slowly went downhill, and hit rock bottom with the Toyota. LOL

Sounds like a great fleet of wheelers.

Had to save the Toyota, Dad bought it new went from him,to me,to my brother,back to him. Transmission needed rebuilding at 200k he was going to get rid of it and my wife said she wanted it. Had it rebuilt fixed a bunch of other crap and found out the engine was shot. Its inline for a new engine. I've owned a couple myself but not a Toyota guy, just by default.

I had an 89 Toy an beat the crap out it, I sold it with 276K on it. Besides maintenance all it needed was a MAF sensor, front output seal on t/case and mill the exhaust manifolds. Really good truck.
