1990 2 door Gen 2 4Runner restore job I'm close to being finished with the restoration job on my 1990 2 door 4Runner. It has been lots of fun..............

Yes, you're right. I plan on cleaning it up because it does stick out badly. I had many parts powder coated so they look great against this dirty little piece. Thanks for the feedback.

1990 4Runner project almost done! I've almost completed the 1990 2 door 4Runner refurbishing and I can't wait to get it back from the paint shop. It now has a supercharged 3.4 rebuilt by Divinity Auto in Salt Lake and installed by Dylan at Locked Off Road in Murray, Utah. He also done the...

OK thanks, I'll check them out!

Looking for a Toyota engine rebuilder in Salt Lake City Hi all, I finally found a rolled donor 1999 4runner vehicle so I can now complete the 3.4 swap through Locked Off Road in Murray, Utah. The donor vehicle is at Dylan's shop and he is about to a point where he can pull the engine in the...

I have been driving it around for a few months. If you have been by Locked Off Road it has also been there for a few other small items.

My 1990 2 door 4Runner Here's my project................ 1990 4Runner, straight front axle, conversion front lift w/bilsteins all aorund, high pinion diff, 4.88's, Chevy 63" springs, next is the 3.4 swap this spring.

More on my 1990 4Runner I forgot to add a picture of the straight front axle swap. I also had him change me to 4.88's. I changed the 16 inch wheels & tires to 17 inch wheels with 285 BFGs this past weekend. It's a little tall for me still so I will be having Locked Off Road lower it a few...

1990 4Runner mods I've taken a few people's advice and visited Locked Off Road in Murray, Utah. Dylan has done a few things to my 1990 2 door 4Runner that make it look way better than stock. I had him install 63 inch springs, a high pinion front diff, a lift for the front with Bilstein's, and...

Thanks for the additional advice and the lead on the shop KidVermicious and thatoneguy. I think I will stay with the thought of the 3.4 swap instead of the Supra engine. I'll be contacting that shop in Murray to talk through it with them. I am locating a donor vehicle now and there are...

Thanks DeathCougar, rbuchmann, and thatoneguy. The point about using parts from a single donor is a good idea. Hey thatoneguy, which shop are you talking about that has done a few of the swaps? I may need to call them up to see if they are interested in doing another one. KidVermicious, I looked...

Hey all, I bought a really nice 1990 2 door SR5 4Runner as a refurbishing project for my daughter to drive when she got her license. She finally talked me into letting her drive my black 1998 Toyota Tacoma Limited Extended cab that I have had for a long time. I have a six inch Trailmaster lift...
