Hello everyone !!! I've been visiting your website for sometime now but never joined till now . I live in central Alaska and own like 6 or 7 toy trucks. My DD is right now currently a 88 4runner SR5 V6 4X4 that is basically stock except for the welded rear that I usually swap out but Have not yet done so yet. Just recently I bought a 95 4runner SR5 V6 with a knocking motor that I will be replacing with one of my spare motors. My long lasting ongoing project is a 89 truck reg cab that has been sased and a new 350 chevy in it with a th350 with a 4 cyl t-case bolted to it. The 89 will clear 44's but I know it will be over kill for the axles. It also has a 14in bobed bed that looks really cool and some heavy duty bumpers.Right now it has 39.5's on it and is still a long ways from running. Eventually I will convert to 4 link and Dana 60s .I'm a member of a local 4X4 club but is mostly HEEP'S but are really a bunch of nice guys. I have some questions for ya guys so I will go to the right threads. Thanks oooo and by the way

We have 3 that run and only 2 of them are street legal the '85 is alot of things but street legal it def is not. but we're turning it into a buggy anyhow it was a mud racer but do to the price of fuel and other expenses I just can't afford to race it.

I built the 89 for mud racing also but now I'm having second thoughts. Now I will be making it a seasonal driver or weekend play toy. I'm still gonna do the danna 60'S under it but no time for a while so I have other projects I'm working on right now. With winter coming I'm trying to get ready for winter so I'm getting my snowmaching ready to play in the powder.
