I personally wouldn't jump my truck, but it is fairly easy to set the 2wd toyota's up for jumping. There are a few companies that make great suspension parts for the 2wd's. The reason that I lifted mine was so that could go on a few mild trails and also I like the way it looks lifted. Sure beats looking stock.

it was like that when i got it. I figure probably got a bunch of gravel tossed its way sometime. I was thinking about putting on a bug shield and maybe painting some of the front of it black, but it might look stupid, so i dunno. If i repainted it, it wouldn't match cause the whole truck is faded haha. so i dunno, the only real option seems like to paint the whole truck or say f it... i'll go with the latter

I don't think it looks bad...as long as it doesn't start rusting, I think the faded spots add character...I say leave it be
