    Lift

    Hey guys, thanks for the links and info, very informative for sure. I have concluded that I will go with the OME lift after all, I'll get all the parts and none of the headaches of ordering and trying to piece together a lift. Besides the price isn't much different if at all. Thanks again and...

    4rescue why are you getting the torsion bars and do you have the OME lift in your vehicle now? Thanks Rylan

    Lift

    The place up here that specializes in JDM, surfs and land cruisers, says I can get an OME suspension and it comes with new, stronger, torsion bars, so I assume that is how it's lifted in the front? The problem I have with that is $1000 for the lift and then about $600 for the install, for only...

    Show us your Toyota 4runner, tacoma or truck.

    surf The wheels were on it when purchased as for stock I'm not too sure what might have been. These are normally modified in some sort of way while in Japan, so usually when you get one here it has a modification of some kind, on this one it was aftermarket wheels and larger tires, stock...

    I have been that route, except SAS for obvious reasons, with a '98 TJ and it gets WAY to costly... This way I don't have to mess with drive shaft angles and axle rotation, etc. 2" is just right after that it's driving skill:smiley_drive: Having said that, you get the bug and want to go...

    Surf My '94 Surf 3ltr. turbo diesel, 102,000kms when purchased. Future mods will be, 2" lift, roof rack, and bed with storage underneath. Nothing really planned beyond that.

    Import JDM Toyota RHD Diesel to U.S.

    xj Is this vehicle you're getting a diesel? Also I purchased my vehicle from Japanoid and I like it so far but there were a few things I had to do to it, ball joints, idler arm, and now a new muffler. Only had her for 3+ months and knew it needed an exhaust from the get go. I suggest having...

    4runner camper

    :I was thinking of heading to a camper conversion shop and asking, their always cutting the tops out of ford/chev/gmc vans, so how hard could it be? I was thinking of a chinook top from the old toyota 2wd, but I think it be too wide, also the 4runner has a slight curve to the roof, I think...

    4runner camper

    Yeah, I googled pop-tops and ended up with this forum, so I added to it, didn't realize how old it was until I was done, but whatever! Hopefully I get some feedback for the top.

    4runner camper

    Throwin' this out there! Anyone ever see a 2nd gen 4runner/hilux surf with a pop top conversion, what would happen to the over all strength of the body? Or... should I just get a "chaser" trailer, probably be cheaper...

    I've been looking at this site for awhile and they have some nice rigs, I like the Ford at the top, very minimal and I can add the stuff I want to it. Unfortunately, I'll have to sell mine before I can make a jump for something else. Thanks for the links.

    Trying to build this...

    Yeah the pre-converted is the route I'll have to go. I can buy a converted van around the same year I have or older anywhere between $3000-$10000, depending on condition. There is a guy up this way that has a '79 chevy/GMC fully restored, except interior, and he wants $14500 but I'm not looking...

    Yeah but my van is a unibody and for the price it would be easier to sell and start from a different approach.

    Trying to build this...

    Yeah, I'm thinking about it. Unfortunately I always liked the full sized van but I guess when you're limited to budget, you can't have everything. Am I right to assume that the AWD has 6 lugs and the 2wd has 5 if there is no badging to state otherwise on the astro/safari van? There is a...

    I'm not in love with this van, I've only had for a few months and I put it up for sale, I'll start with something 4wd/Awd and go from there. You're right, that one is pretty nice and that's all I'm looking for, plain cargo with some carpet and the rest I'll do myself, might have to do a...
