Dude!!!!! ^^^^ That's a 1st Gen 4Runner... It's hardly a $***Box... It's a better rig then 99% of 4wd's on the road to this day... An old, in-need-of-love 1st GEN is still an AWESOME truck. Don't sell it short by any means mate. Cold it use some love??? Looks like it, but it's still a GERAT truck and one HELL of a starting point. I beat on mine pretty hard and at 260K it's still running strong. My GF and I sleep in the back and mone get's me out to the middle of nowhere without breaking a sweat. If you keep her (and you SHOULD keep her) I'd HIGHLY suggest some Old Man Emu Dakar rear springs (nothing comes close to these in a quality/cost comparison... Dever, Alcan... You pay more and don't get much better IMO) with that set-up alone you can tun some 33x10.50's (I'm biased as this is what I run, but it's a VERY proven set-up and the 33's have REALLY made a huge difference on the trails, just stick with 10.50's cauzse WIDE doesn't help with clearence - you can run 35X10.50's on these old trucks with ZERO lift but anything WIDER just rubs). depending on if you need one or not yet, just throw in a cheap-o auto locker and you've got a truck that'll go places that alot of "more heavily mod'd" trucks (unless they TOO are old-school Toyota's) can go and all in a totaly low-key little Toyota that will just keep running and running for EVER.
Like I said, DON'T SELL THAT LITTLE BEAUTY SHORT. She's a GREAT rig that'll give you YEARS of enjoyment if you just keep an eye on her.
Cheers
Dave
