31x10.50 BFG A/T's Sam

Good choice of trucks, I have 2 of em. I hear you about the cash flow, Im a college student trying to build my trucks up. The first thing that I would do would be to get a locker for the rear dif. Check out www.offroadlockers.com . They sell Aussie's, which in my opinion are the best on the...

Yeah, it was a shame, but it is on a stand in my garage for some stupid project in the future. It is still rebuildable, so I'll hang on to it. A shifter cart with a 22RE and a 5spd anyone? It isnt so much compatability with the Honda seats, it is more that they are cheap and relativly...

Another good thing to remember is that the cap will open when it gets too hot to release preasure, but it opens as well. It will open when you enter cold water to equalize the preasure, and suck water into the cap, and in turn, the axle. I used the coiled air hose that come with some compressors...

Save for color and center consols, the interiors between a truck and a 4runner were the same. The passenger brackets under the seat were also different, due to the 4runner's need to slide. The years to look for are 84-89 4runner and 84-88 pickup. These are known as first gen 4runners and second...

I looked it up, but could not find a conifer rack. I found this one, made by Surco, and both styles will fit your app. Around $200. http://www.roofracks4less.com/surorasy.html Sam

The 3.0 has a great reputation for being slow and eating gas like a 350. 13 mpg isnt that far off. As for tires, I wouldnt go bigger than 32x11.50's, but you can fit larger, but you will sacrifice too much in acceleration due to gearing. Sam

Check out conifer racks, I have seen them on second gen's before. Just remember that if it doesnt fit, it can always be made to fit. Sam

My first 4runner, an 86 22RE died at 230,000. My new truck, the same exact one, has 135,000. Sam

Sorry, my bad on the sliders. Marlin has them for $135. See this: http://marlincrawler.com/htm/armor.htm . What do you expext to get for nerf bars if you dont want bent 2 inch tubing? This isnt exhaust piping, that I can assure you. They will give you the nerf bar you want, but will look BA at...

Auto lockers dont like anything on the fly. I don't know much about 6 cylenders, but I wouldnt do it. My 2 cents. Sam

Depending on the condition of the suspention, yes or no. If it is sagging, then no. 33's is pushing the limits, not to mention the gearing. If you dont plan on putting some steeper gears in it, then I wouldnt run them on a DD. My 34's were dogs on the highway. Sam

I know that if it is a 4 cylender, then no. You will get an awesome griding noise. The 6 cylender transefer case is completely different, so I dint know about that. Try it and let us know if its a 3.slow. Sam

Since I know that you want "rock sliders" and not nerf bars, check out www.allprooffroad.com . They sell a set for around $150 if my memory serves me correct. You will need to have them welded on, but they will be hella strong and they also will serve a purpose. Sam

It really doesnt depend on the wheel size of width, it is more backspacing then anything. If you get a rim with a lot of backspacing, then the back of the tire will be farther away from the suspention, and therefor it wont rub. If you get a wheel the is 10 inches wide with 4 inches of...
