Re: Toyota pre-runner
If you like to spend money...buy a Tacoma. If you like to go fast in the dirt for relatively less money...buy a Ranger. I have spent a few grand and beat the crap out of my truck and have yet to brake anything. The majority of yota guys on here are always talking about switchin this with that or that and this and then something breaks and they gotta go with this becasue its hot off the market...ford rangers have been proven for 20 years stick with proof!
Tacomas look nice when done proper, but then you are afraid to use it because the cost is so hi.
All anybody says is oh the camber sucks on an Ibeam and steering is hard to get right...majority of the people saying that can't even tell the difference while driving and some of the A arm kits out there are almost as bad..bumpsteer wise and they cost two or three times as much for that same quality of travel.
I am a Ford guy so I advocate ford...Toyotas are good for pounding pavement, but pricey in the dirt.

Re: Toyota pre-runner
Doesn't the leader of the "Pavement Pounders" drive a Toyota? I think he proudly displays it down the side of his truck?!
Sorry Fish!

Re: Toyota pre-runner
Ya know, usually it's Ford vs. Chevy that gets these kind of responses! I'm actually a GM guy at heart, but in truth, if it goes fast instead of just looking fast, then that's fine by me.

Re: Toyota pre-runner
Some trucks come stock with a turbo (22RET i think) but they only made it for like 2 years and its really rare. www.desertspeed.com guy swapped inline 6 supra engine (non turbo).

Re: Toyota pre-runner
Why not build the fullsize 4x4? Can't be much more than a Toyota and you've already got the truck.
I've seen a few nice "long travel" 4x4 IFS trucks and that seems to be a pretty sweet way to go if you gotta have 4wd.

Re: Toyota pre-runner
Your all wrong,
The LEADERS of the "pavement pounders" all drive S-10's like myself, and if there hard core "pavement pounder" they have a "LONG TRAVEL" kit with fiberglass. HA HA..........ITS ALL GOOD............
If youve never been scared your going to slow
