Are you looking into buying a parts vehicle?

Be extra careful on interior bits - there are a lot more than you might think...
4Runners and 1st gen Tacomas are built on similar, but not the same platform, both due to the truck vs. suv differences (rear frame half, rear suspension designs, etc.) but also different country of origin. 4Runners are always Japan built, Tacomas are US built - which means a number of components were built/sourced in different places, all the way down to the frame.
