I have a 1996 Toyota Tacoma that i bought without the grill. Not a big fan of the 1996 grill. Is there any SIMPLE way to make a newer grill fit or work without having to change a lot or spend a lot of money.

Also, anyone know of a good 2wd lift kit?? Not used to being low to the ground and im wanting to put bigger tires on it.

Thanks!!

 

why would you lift a 2wd truck? that is kinda weird. anyway. you can probably find all of your answers if you just use the search box and google.

 

I think you can swap any of the 3rd gen grilles, just a matter of pushing the little plastic tabs to release the grille and then snap the new one in. I know people have trouble with those plastic tabs breaking so be prepared or just take your time and do it carefully.

Do you have a new grille already? I'm about to finish my Satoshi (look it up) so I'll be getting rid of my chrome '02 grille if you're interested in it, might not be for a few weeks though.

 

He's talking Taco.

IMO, the 95-97's were the nicest Tacoma fronts, but I guess that's personal preference.

You can add the 01-04 fronts onto the earlier 1st gens by adding a hood, grill, lights, and I think making one new mounting hole.

If you search there are instructions and has been done before.

As for 4runners, I love your's Patty. I bought the same wheels and hope to mount some 33's and currently piecing together an LC lift. Since my grill isn't in exceptional shape it's crossed my mind to do a Satoshi grill too!

 

Wow, how did I NOT see that it said Tacoma??? Sorry for the misinformation.

Thanks Shibby, good luck with your build.
