Aftermarket and OEM parts for the 1st Generation Toyota Hilux Surf / 4Runner (1983–1988) — LN60 (2L diesel), YN60 (22R petrol) and the early Surf platforms. The 1st Gen is where it all started, and these trucks are now firmly in the classic-4x4 territory — increasingly sought after, increasingly hard to source parts for. This is the home for what we do stock.
Fitment
Direct-fit for the 1st Gen Hilux Surf and 1st Gen 4Runner, 1983–1988. Chassis codes covered: LN60 (2L 2.4 diesel), YN60 (22R 2.4 petrol). Some parts cross-fit early 2nd Gen — listings call this out. The 1st Gen is mechanically similar to the contemporary Hilux pickup of the same era, so some Hilux parts also work.
What's In This Collection
Suspension (Dobinsons steering dampers and 1st/2nd Gen shocks), driveline parts (Flatout Offroad steering shaft extensions that fit 1st, 2nd and 3rd Gen), and the smaller selection of bolt-on accessories that suit the older platform. The 1st Gen aftermarket is thinner globally — we list what we can verify fits.

FAQ
Are 1st Gen parts hard to find? Yes — the global aftermarket has shrunk over time and a lot of 1st Gen-specific gear is now NLA (no longer available) from Toyota. We focus on aftermarket and serviceable items.
Will 2nd Gen parts fit my 1st Gen? Some service items and exterior accessories do; suspension and bodywork generally don't. Check the listing fitment window or message us.
Can you source parts I can't find on the site? Often — message us with the part you need and we'll see what we can do.
