Passenger A/C Vent (1984-89 4Runner / 1984-88 Pickup)
Thanks guys for bringing these back!

Fits awesome and is super soft so it does not scratch the glass. My old one was stiff and was scratching the rear glass. Hopefully I can get the scratches from the OEM one out somehow :/. Please find a way to fix mt glass next haha

Hardtop Sliding Window Seal Weather Strip Kit (1984-89 4Runner)
Awesome!

I've been wanting this style of shift knob for a minute but never could justify paying the $400+ for a 30 year old used one. This exceeded my expectations with quality and looks killer. Pls make a matching one for the transfer case knob!!!

It needed a new cup holder and you had the perfect solution….

I received my order yesterday and it was exactly what I hoped for…..as an owner of a 93 Toyota 4 wheel drive I really appreciate your company….I bought my truck new in 93 and it still has less than 120 K on it….we drive it once a week…..It needed a new cup holder and you had the perfect solution….
Thanks again,

1st Gen Toyota Pickup Parts & Restoration

The 1979–1983 Toyota Pickup is commonly called the 1st Gen Toyota Pickup within the U.S. Toyota 4x4 enthusiast community because this was the first generation of factory 4WD Toyota pickups sold in the United States. Whether you are restoring an original truck, maintaining a daily driver, or building a trail project, Preserve Rad offers a growing selection of 1st Gen Toyota Pickup parts for restoration, maintenance, and upgrades.

Parts for 1979–1983 Toyota Pickups

Fitment changes across the 1979, 1980, 1981, 1982, and 1983 model years. Gasoline trucks used Toyota’s 20R and 22R four-cylinder engines, and both 2WD and 4WD configurations were offered. Toyota introduced factory four-wheel drive to the U.S. Pickup line for 1979, giving the 4WD trucks the solid-front-axle layout that became a defining feature of these early Toyota 4x4s.

The 4WD and 2WD trucks use substantially different front suspension, steering, brake, and chassis components, so drivetrain configuration is especially important when selecting parts. Engine, transmission, wheelbase, bed configuration, and production year can also affect compatibility. Always review the individual product listing before ordering.

Restoration, Suspension & Off-Road Parts

Preserve Rad carries interior and exterior restoration components, suspension bushings, steering and brake parts, drivetrain components, engine-related products, differential parts, decals, chassis accessories, and off-road upgrades for the 1st Gen Toyota Pickup. The collection supports factory-style restorations as well as trucks being maintained or upgraded for street and trail use.

Owners working on later Toyota trucks can also browse our 2nd Gen Toyota Pickup Parts collection for 1984–1988 models and 3rd Gen Toyota Pickup Parts for 1989–1995 trucks.
