    Tacoma to 80 series?

    Which years are you refering to? My 95 stops pretty well, for what it is :) I guess the same could be said for a loaded up 1st gen Taco though too. Tundra swap did wonders for them.

    Tacoma to 80 series?

    I just made this exact switch a few months back. Sold my 2002 Tacoma with the 5VZ auto (180,000 miles) for a 95 80 with the 1FZ(112,000 miles). http://s208.beta.photobucket.com/user/ericbirk/library/Erics%20LC80 I had always wanted an 80, and it took me 6-8 months to find the one I ended up...

    The Baja Bus 1994 FZJ80 Build

    Really glad I stumbled across this thread. Great color choice! I just picked up the identical truck, but a 95, about a month ago. Mine is sans lockers, for now at least.The red really does shine nice doesn't it. I would love to get my hands on that rear bumper but the cost to get it up here...

    96' FZJ80 "Poverty Pack"

    Yeah I was quite disappointed to say the least... It is rather unfortunate because it was in pretty good shape underneath otherwise. Throughout the entire process Nate was very accommodating. I asked multiple times for different pictures and received exactly what I was looking for. He picked me...

    96' FZJ80 "Poverty Pack"

    Nate, sorry but I feel that it is an obligation to update everyone viewing and potentially interested in this truck with what I found out. I saw dozens of photos, a recent toyota inspection (done for a previous potential buyer). Pulled a vin report and it came back with a ps front accident, but...

    Double Cab Lift Pics And Advice Please

    Here is my 02. AllPro front coil overs and upper arms 9 leaf Deavers, AllPro shackles. She had Donahoe rear remote resi's on it when I got it, but they were too short.

    How to stop side to side rocking?

    Timbrens are designed for anti-sway? I thought they were designed as bumpstops? Listen to GSRON. Shocks control the "rate" of suspension movement, springs just hold up a load...

    What about the DEF system when you travel to Third World countries?

    I have heard of the same thing up here in Alberta. We have a new Powerstroke service truck that sees use all winter long, driving back and forth from wellsites to Edmonton. Sometimes it sits in our yard for a week without running. We hit -30°C quite a few times this winter, and it was even -45°C...

    Show us your Toyota 4runner, tacoma or truck.

    You wouldnt have been in Princeton eating early afternoon July 19 last year would you? We pulled in after finishing Whipsaw and saw a white Taco with a color matched ARB in the lot. Not to common.

    Winch solenoid relocation - let's see yours

    Nice work! How did you manage to squeeze that switch in the shifter surround. I wanted to put mine there but it looked like there was no room at all underneath it. I guess I should look again...

    I R Dum

    hahahahaha We have had -30°C for at least a week+ on/off this winter. My snow piles from shovelling are so high in my yard I can barely see over them. The city had some roof collapses due to the snow. It was -39°C with windchill at site while I was working (that sucked). The crazy thing is 3...
