Here is the story...I can no longer leave my 2nd truck down at my Moms house, so I need to sell one of them.  The 85 runner is stock except for the 35 inch boggers.  The Tacoma has about 6 inches of lift and 33's.  I have collected quite a few parts for the 85.  The options are to sell the Tacoma and build the 85 with parts I have, or sell the 85 as is, and get a reverse housing from Front Range Off Road or the like, so can use the collected parts on the Tacoma...Any opinions?    :dunno:

Toss the tacoma and keep the 85.  Taco's are nice but thats a lot of work to sas it and get extra adapters for duals etc.
Full hydro, 186:1 with an auto and 44's what could go wrong??

Yeah, I think that may be the road I will take.

Ditto; tacos=dime a dozen,  85 runners=cool factor
RIP KYOTA

You can go through life being scared of the possible, or you can have a little fun and tease the inevitable.

Give a man venison, he'll eat for a day. Teach a man to hunt Blacktail, he'll be frustrated for life!
