Yes it was off a Taco, but Im not sure if it was built specifically for that truck either. There is a small gap between the cab and the shell (because of the difference in angle of the cab), but otherwise the fitment over the bed is perfect. Not yet. I don't have a front plate either and no...

Well the PNW has been miserable lately, so I headed east of the cascades in the King Ranch to my family cabin on the Wenatchee river. What a beautiful day. The snow was melting so I knew finding back roads would be impossible. In fact, every back road was closed :( So I spend most of my...

I know the bushings in my shackle and leafs (Im sure every bushing in the truck) are basically disintegrated. Hopefully the damn axle will stay in place!

Lets see some pics! I've got an '88 xtra cab I'm building now and need some inspiration!

Thanks man! Yeah bot are great and affordable platforms. I feel like Ill be in for a few muddy months here in the PNW, so we shall see how the little truck does.

Who knows maybe they're magicians. They do my race car, so there might be some go fast voodoo going on there. Likely, they are trying to trick me into believing they were able to drastically adjust a solid rear axle. I fell for it until you mentioned how would they adjust it. Then I was like...

I have no idea. Maybe since all the bushings are so old, the machine was just reading changes in toe/camber from beginning to end of front alignment. No adjustment, just slop lol. The wheel specs I have are 16x8 +0 offset

Set out to find some back roads on the first sunny day in Washington in about 4 months. Drove East on i90 up to exit 38. Kept driving up the hills until I found snow. The drove some more until I found some people stuck in the snow. They had recovery gear and I didn't so I headed back down in...

It is amazing how bad an alignment can get after 30 years and a t-bar crank lol. Replaced the pitman arm as well and it improved steering input. All thats left is to patch a rust hole and paint this old bugger.

Quick Update. Just got my Method NV and Discoverer AT3 combo installed. So far I haven't noticed a difference in how the truck reacts going from 265/70r16 to 265/75r16. It's a small change, and visually you can see the difference in tire height but luckily there is no difference in how the...

Absolutely yes. Here is a crappy cell phone image, but you get the idea. Didn't need to upgrade any wiring either as I was still getting over 12v to the plug. Don't mind the ugly blue house, my land lord let their 6 year old pick the color :(

Thanks! It's 1 year older than me, which now makes me feel like an older rig lol

Hey Guys! Glad I found this site. I’m very new to the 4×4/overlanding scene, as I have been a car guy most of my life. After my S2000 turned into my track car and snow left me stuck at home this winter, I decided to purchase an 1988 Toyota pickup SR5. All I’ve really done to it is change almost...
