Yeah, if I do it, it will be on tons.

Never was going buggy. Want a full-bodied rig on 1 tons.

Well if you want an 86-89 Runner you will be stuck with the 3.0 which is a less then steller power plant. I like the coolness of the removable top but if you aren't set on that, but you want to keep your front axle, pick up a 95.5-97 Tacoma. They are driver side drop and will have the 2.7 or 3.4 in them which are much better engines. Plus the Tacoma Transfer case while chain driven is extremely strong. You could also go with a late 90's 4Runner (also drivers drop) which would be very cool for long over the road trips.

Or you keep your axles and get cheap 86-89 runner, you say screw the Yota Doublers which can add up real quick and you get an Inchworm Lefty, or Atlas 2 speed.

I want the seats

None came with the 22re?

I have a 95 4runner now that I am trying to sell. Needs a fuel pump so i have not been able to drive it yet. Maybe I keep that and just deal with the 3.0

I wrote that wrong I think you can get the 22re in the runner in 86-89 but the 3.0 was more common. The runner went only 3.0 from 90-95. Personally the 90-95 is my favorite body style and if you already had one that has has the head gaskets done under the recall, then I would rock the **** out of it. The 3.0 isn't horrible as long as it has been mantained. I had a 94 truck with one and it was just slow.

Her time has come. I don't have any hesitation about it anymore.

I think I am keeping and rebuilding the axles for the next rig.

Seats are spoken for.

Doubler - $1000. Works great, but leaks. I would replace various seals. Has triple sticks and nice JB Fab shifter knobs. ORD plate

302/AOD - Make and offer. Has some good parts in it, but should probably be pulled apart and checked out.


39.5x13.5x16.5 Iroks on recentered H1s. + (1) 39.5x14x16.5 TSL - $800 - 2 pretty big gashes in one tire, but it holds air. Could be repaired. Plenty of rock rash. Wheels should be pulled apart, re-o-ringed, painted. Would probably run you 2500-3k for new tires and recenterd wheels. These tires take this heavy ass rig where it should not be in Clayton. Karl really likes TSLs, says they are Gods tires. I disagree. I like Iroks.

Cage? Would be a bitch to pull out, might just cut it up.

Everything else is jsut plain worn out, so it will go to scrap.

:beer:
