I'm Jeep spoiled, you couldn't GIVE me a toyota to wheel again.

Jeeps are a lot like divorce. They're expensive because they're worth it. :rofl:

TJ, it's not hard to become a toyota owner:

Step 1 (yes, it's necessary)
- sell jeep for lots of $$$

Step 2
- buy toyota for less $

Step 3
- climb obstacles you could never climb before

Step 4
- enoy all that $ you just saved

I want to be part of something.

1979 vintage toyota frame, doors, motor (20r), 4spd tranny, and axle housings.
The rest is mostly trail-gear goodies. buggy pending (need 1.5" die).

The sad part is it was a pretty decent truck when i found it. it was laying in a field in BFE(marysvale) UT. paid 150$ for it and towed it home. its been rolled and beat to Sh!t but still keeps going. the only thing that hasn't been completely tore down and gone trough is the tranny. not worth fixing sycros, rather replace it with a 5spd.

Here is mine on the first run, and no I didn't build it. But I DO wheel it :D

This is my 09 tacoma, many years away from being paid off. OME lift, 4.88 gears, rear detroit, ARB bumper, warn M8000 winch, custom sliders and high clearance rear bumper built by Seth and Jason of trail ridge. 285/70R17 BFG all terrain tires hopefully 35's soon. I really love the truck, but it needs an SAS.

Here I go:

88 4Runner
4:10's no longer locked in rear, since I broke a pinion tooth, that decided to wedge itself into the ring gear.
Trail-gear Front and rear bumpers, as well as rocksliders. Hella spots on front (photo eventually), and some rock lights in the wheel wells.
Bright Yellow Rustoleum "roll-on" paint job.
Mickey Thompson MTZ's (love those things)

and new cargo lighting, that's already become useful (they're actually white, but look blue)
