I really apreciate all the reps , I wish I know more about auto repair, and maybe do the tacoma swap myself, I am afraid if I sugest it to my mechanic he is going to charge me a whole lot more for adjustments he has to make, if has to anyways

the truck had records for renewed time belt, belt tentioner, belt pullies, crank seal, cam seals also complete waterpump, so, do you think if i just take care of the leak replacing the head gaskets, I should be able to use the truck for few more K miles?,I was hoping to replace the engine next winter as I am not driving it in the chicago's salty roads, and it sucks, you would think thats why you want a 4x4, for the snow, but they throw some much rock salt on the roads that the the body rottens up quick


I am going to post a picture of the truck,

ands thanks for the advices <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/nana.gif" alt="" />
