Here's a pic from the site:

I am trying to figure out what I need to put my Tacoma tire/rims, which have 255/85/16's, on my 84 to try it out. I think spacers will do the trick, and I will start a new thread with how they work.
Wow, that's a pretty big difference. Nice

I've to 5.29's and 33's on my 84. Doesn't go on the freeway anymore. That being said, it rocks on the trail. I am planning on getting 35 or maybe 37 if I can scrath together the money.
