Nice Rig......lookin' good without the Grandpa Boards too......

Downey Lift Here I purchased the Downey "Economy" lift which included the torsion bars and the 2 inch lift rear HD coil springs. All I gotta say is I love it. I put 32x11.5x15 ATTA KO's on with no problem, pulled the rear up to level and the front sits nice. overall with tires i believe...

Same Problem Here Although I know the problem. My driver side latch does not engage on the tailgate. I have to apply light....and I mean light....I can just look at it hard and the contacts make connection...pressure. Try pushing ever so lightly on the tailgate to see if it will go up with...

Hey Guys, long time no post....I am going to be starting a 3.0 rebuild here in a couple of weeks....(waiting for tax return). Rather than buying crappy parts off of ebay can you guys give me some suggestions to find parts for my rebuild from reputable vendors. I would like to get a whole kit...

I have a 1st. and 2nd. Gen I have em both. My first gen is an 87' 5spd. 4cyl pretty much stock aside from some bolt on engine mods. My 2nd Gen. I put a 3in Downey lift W/32x10.5 AT tires. I prefer my 2nd gen. only because it is in much better shape than the other one (body). But I live in...

UPDATE!!!! Ok, still no brakes. I've replaced everything in the braking system. Both front rotors, Calipers, pads, lines, master cylinder, brake booster, back cylinders, LSPV. I've bench bled the MC, Bled all lines, bled the LSPV, and even bled the return line. but nothing. I can't seem to...

Not Gonna Make It.... Well guys, I just got out of court and I received a 6 month suspension of my license. So needless to say I will not be able to make it. Sucks a ton, but what am I gonna do. I guess this gives me some time to do some body work. Hopefully you all have a great time and...

I rebuilt mine.... I just rebuilt my 22RE from my 87 runner. New Crank, New Connecting Rods, Cylinders honed, Block acid dipped and I spent just under 500 bones. Runs like a top now. I would recommend rebuilding you'll learn a ton about your truck. And then once it's all done you won't want...

Hey all, I'm looking for the best lift for my 4Runner. I am interested in the most bang for my buck. I'm not gonna be doing any HARDCORE crawling or anything like that, just some muddin' here and there. Probably lookin' for about 3-4 inch suspension lift. No body lifts wanted. Any help...

Yeah Window has to be down to open tailgate but be careful I've come to find out in a shot time span that most first Gen. Runners window motors have stripped gears so that they dont' roll up and down by themselves.
