The RFA (rigid front axle) models have the "105series" designation, rather than "100series", so what you are after is a HZJ105 model, all of which had the 1HZzzzzz normally aspirated diesel.
The
barn door model HZJ105 ran from 1998 and are still available new.
The GXL HZJ105 had RFA up until about 2003.
The Factory Turbo motor (1HD-FTE) did not come in the 105series. If you want the beautiful combination of the factory TD motor and RFA, then your only option is the post 2002 HDJ78/79series Troopie/traytop, or drop back to the 80series.
Cheers
Phil

According to Toyota website GXL RFA is still available, I think it was manual only though.

Hi Peter,
I'll stand corrected. I also looked up redbook, and like you say, it appears the HZJ105 GXL is still available . They must be selling very few of them though.
Cheers
Phil
