i love 3rd gen pickups with solid axle swaps, everyone with an 89-95 toyota pickup with a solid axle under her post as many pics as you can, and be sure to note all the suspension mods you got. heres mine!!! we know everyone loves pictures.


85 full truss solid axle, 5" hd trail gear ifs eliminator kit, high steer, full diff armor, axle truss, breather hoses, 5.29 gears, bilstien 5150's 33" and 38" tsl's fj 80 rotors with v6 4 piston ifs calipers.

 

You sir, have a 2nd gen;-) And these here parts are considered 2nd Gen's;-) 3rd Gen's are all stock with 3.4's and run from 96-03...

 

um sir, i take it you are a 4 runner man, thus you are incorrect. i have a 3rd gen PICKUP, you are thinking of a 2nd gen runner. which in my book is incorrect also because the toyota trekker is actually the first gen bodystyle with a sealed box, a first gen(79-85) 4 runner.


oh, and they dont all come stock with 3.4's, they also come with 2.4 and 2.7 liters.

 

OH YEAH!!! My kinda thread...
My specs are in my signature.

 

ha, iv seen you posting lately, i like your truck. although ill admit im not a fan of the paint color nor the arches, dont get me wrong there really cool and unique, im just gonna go on a different route with my flat bed im gonna build.

here's a little cut and paste i did for fun

 

git er done!

 

kinzer thats a nice lookin truck and good lookin choclate lab i love my labs and my yota truck cant beat either one

 

hey toyo, can your back axle flex good with that flatbed? from the pics it look s like it dont have much travel but pictures can be deceiving.

Kinzer long time no see! last time i seen you on here you was IFS!! haha. those 38x12.50s looks niiiice

 

I like solid axle third gens too, but all i see are 5th generation toyota pickups :/

 

This debate is a little silly since the OP specified 89 to 95 toyota pickups as well as saying third gen.

 

^^
well then he needs to say 5th gen and 89-95 p/u's.

 

you need

you happen to be totally misinformed

 

^ Wow, nice solid axle swap!

->->

 

you took half of my favorite Toyota truck out there.
Does Guff know you swiped his bed?
MT-Toy's '82

 

Wouldnt they actually be 4th gens, considering they were called Hilux until '75. then trucks. so '75-'78, '79-'83, '84-'88, '89-'95.5....But yet. Really. We call them 3rd gens because they are the 3rd gen with 4wd. Trucks didnt get 4wd until '79......

 

1st gen: 1968-1972
2nd Gen: 1973-1978***** don't know why i put 4.
3rd Gen: First 4WD introduced on the Hilux.. 1979-1983
4th Gen: 1984-1988 (1st gen for 4runners 1984-1989)
5th Gen: 1989-1995 (2nd gen for 4Runners 1990-1995)

Note: This is going by body-Style. The 84-88 had the same body style, just a difference between the 84-85 years and the 86-88 years.

As you can see, the 3rd generation Hilux sold in the north american market was from 1979-1983..

And 91Toyota, he said 3rd gen toyotas

 

he could have called them sas'd best gen's

here are some older pics.

What happened to the '75-'78!?!!?!?!?!?!?!??!?!?!
