write somethin man.
im interested...
i like your build so far.

[Tallchevy]

OK, Here's the deal. My white 87 has body rust around the windsheild & gas door, not as bad as an East coast rig but too much for me. I was in a hurry to build it cause it was my daily driver & left out alot of details. I have been putting off all the final removal of the brackets from the IFS so the frame will look smooth. I have a white 88 SR5 4Runner that I was going to swap the body. I have been putting off the swap cause I don't have the equipment to lift the bodies. I came across an 87 4Runner SR5 automatic for $350 with the engine torn down. I have the equipment to do an SAS & an engine / tranny swap. Follow my new build cause I'm going to do more detail stuff like smooth the frame, auxillary fuel tank with a twist, 3rd row seat & more. Here's the link to my other build

Yeah, complete running gear from the white one into the brown. I'll get the engine & tranny in first & get it drivable (stock    ) Then do the SAS with RUF hybrid & my alcans.

Today I started gutting out the 88 SR5 4Runner. The plan was to take the interior out & put it in my 87. I started thinking that once I get it in there I'm going to be taking it back out in a month or so cause I was going to cut up the 87 also. Thats Just too much work so I decided to just finish the white 87.
