I wish I had the money. I have 200$ to my name so that's not happening.
I drove the white 91 to my brothers college two hours away and back on a tank of gas, I got 21mpg, damn I miss that

So after a crazy weekend, I think I'm gonna go rip my gears out the 4 runner, and I think it has rear lift coils( is that what they're call?) I think I'll snag them too, the truck is going to the junk yard! What else should I take?!

Humm... master cylinder, air box and sensor, fuses, radiator, any spare parts you think you might use down the road.
That also depends where you are, i might request you snag a few bits and pieces for me.

Yes, springs for sure, those little buggers are so easy to loose, them and c-clips.
If you have the key grab the door locks and ignition for a spare set. Those can be real expensive if you have to change them.

I might take the rear seats out and make a seat for the bed of the truck for hanging out!

Oh I put those in my 91 and ended up selling them a few months ago. They aren't as comfy as the 60/40

And I've had this brush guard I got off a 89 4runner for a while. Put in on the truck with bungy cords to see if I like it, I have two hella lights to go on it too, what do you think? Eventually I'll build my own front bumper but that's down the line

Also I don't like the way it looks without a skid plate, idk why. But I'm in the process of grinding it down to paint it black

I finished the skid plate, not perfect paint job but it's better than rust.
