I visited the local PullnPay a couple weeks ago:
'93 runner buckets $20 each
seatbelt buckles $5 each
digital clock $5
A/C switch $5 (didn't need it, but the original from the 'yota stealer was $60 now I have a spare)
Glove Box+speaker housing $10

Probably gonna go back for an instrument cluster ($20) Mine has a cracked lens

Having a much nicer interior: priceless.

Those vids of the scion and the truck are loud. I don't want that loud lol. I just went with two twin red horns from sickspeed that will look good behind the grill.

'Yota trucks are very scarce in self-service yards around LA. Rumor has it that they are quickly bought up and shipped to the Middle East. Apparently once you have your Kalashnikov, a 'Yota is next on your fashion accessory must-have list.

Do you guys mean Louisiana or Los Angeles???? If Los Angeles....

Good amount of 2nd gen 4runners in Los Angeles, but like Dave said not pickup trucks. I've seen many late 70's to 88' but rarely 89-95. The two I've seen were in serious wrecks with major frame damage but at least the interior door panels were in great shape and that's what I needed.

Bahaha, Toyota's are sold around the world. They rock hilux's over there. Not north american toyotas.
The toyota's in LA usually end in mexico. Or china for scrap steel.

K. A small update on the suspension coil upgrade. As luck would have it while I was procrastinating about putting in the coils on the rear. I found out that all 4 of my shocks were gone. After looking around I got a set if bilstein shocks for all 4 corners for 25 bucks after tax. Yummy days

I used the inner bracing bracket that came from the 4Runner.
I had to cut it down quite a bit because the corner on the pickup is completely different than the 4Runner (behind the outer sheetmetal).

For all you guys, how hard is it to brace the factory carrier on a T4R that didn't come with one? I don't have a welder at easy disposal, and would like to be able to bolt it in... I just don't know what and where it needs it.
