    Question Sportsman Toyota Teardown/Build up advice needed

    I just started my rolled 98 four runner tear down and am lookin for advice. Anybody got any time saving and or money saving advice for me. This will be my first time taking on a job like this and would love any knowledge you guys could throw at me. I plan on building sportsman class truck and am takin my supercharged 3.4 litre with me along with the power train. Do I wanna keep my axles, spindels, etc? What supension system would you guys recomend? There are so many things to think about that I am affraid I will overlook something important as I chop up this ball of metal that used to be my four runner and end up having the junk guy take away something I diddnt realize I was gonna need.

    Any and all comments will be appreciated.

    If you have the time or money to do it twice, you have the time to do it twice.

    That will save your time and money, trust me.
