i want to pick up a 1st generaton runner and swap the body onto my 2nd generation pickup frame, ive been told that it should be a fairly easy swap but i wanted some more info on it so if anyone has some it would be appreciated

The 4Runner has 10 body mounts. You will have to make the last 2 or 4 mounts for the rear cause they are on the outside of the frame rail. I have body mounts from a 4Runner for sale so you don't have to build them.

Did you see that build up the guy did in Toyota 4 x 4 owners where he made his truck into a runner? It was really nice.
