So my 86 frame is rusted through in a few spots, I found a 87 4runner frame to use. I know a guy with an 92 4x2 P/U with a blown engine, I'm trying to see about getting the truck off of him. The truck has a good cab and bed, not to mention everything I need to convert to EFI. I think the bed on the 4x2 doesn't have the fender flares but I can cut those off and weld them on the 92 bed and do some grinding. I might actually have a pretty nice rig by next summer, I won't have money for a SAS or anything. I'm gonna sand blast the whole frame, primer, then paint it.

SAS the 2wd frame! SAS the 2wd frame! SAS the 2wd frame! SAS the 2wd frame! SAS the 2wd frame! SAS the 2wd frame! SAS the 2wd frame! SAS the 2wd frame! Sell all the other parts you have left over to fund the SAS.

There's no such thing as 2x2 anyway. =) It's 4x2.

is the 2wd frame the same aside from the ifs brackets?
Maybe I'll keep that frame and start a extreme offroad project out of it, I have been thinking about all the fun I had with just 35's and a body lift, kinda makes me wanna sell my stang to fund a badass yoda

The big thing about the 2wd frame is the amount of front kick-up they have. If you do the SAS on the 2wd frame, you'll have more room for the axle to flex versus a 4wd frame. Its the same reason 2wd Toyota make great lowriders, lots of front kick in the frames

not true

First 2x2
Now in motor form

wouldn't that make it sit with a lot of rake?
