Me Likey....Yeah for Firemen!
Here is my new Budbuilt skid. I am letting it get a little "finish" to it before POR-15 in the spring. Sliders are going on as soon as my friend and I can coordinate the same day off.

That is a clean looking rig and I have to say If mine didn't look the way it does I'd like it to look like yours. But then of course I couldn't run into anything so that might remove some of the fun or safety if you will. But very clean and good looking for sure.

i know im probably gonna get flamed but.... here is my daily 2000 runner. 2.7ltr magazine featured show truck that will shortly be transformed with a SAS and a 4wd conversion. why? cuz it only has 26k miles and waaaaay to much money into it. motors not even broken in yet and im over the lowrider thing so mite as well turn it into what i want.

from the extreme opposite. sounds like you have a bit of money to spend, i would buy another runner with good body and alright engine and put your engine out of the ghetto fab one into the new one. then put the new crap engine in your lowrider and sell it...let it die the way you made it, someone out there probably appreciates it

True, that is another point, here most off-roading is in mud/dirt/small rocks. We don't have many real rock crawling areas around me, only one place and even there i was able to go a lot futher then the jeeps.

Not talking about an SAS swapped 4runner, obiously that is going to be better. But seeing as he will not do any off-roading, there is no reason for him to waste his $$$$ on an SAS IMO.
That's different, thats a jeep. Totally different than a swapped rig. You have a lot more ground clerence over a heep (stock), and plus they have ty axles. And don't even get me started on cherokees, may have a solid axle, but whose got da frame.

I totally agree with you, doesn't need a swap at all, not even close. if he wants high drop bracket, convert to 4wd. All ya need. If its not even bad beachers, throw in a rear locker and call it done.

still the "dark side" still a show truck, this is an off road oriented toyota board, all show and no go is still the "dark side"

i think its a good little engine, points i'd like some more power, but heck when i first got it i got 23mpg and i could handle the slow. just have to have gearing with it.

if i could sell it and start with a 4wd i would... lord knows it would prolly save me some headaches! but ive had it for sale for a while with no "ligit" offers so im just gonna work with what i got. and im not super worried bout the paint. if it gets scratched up then i will repaint it. its just a truck. anything that breaks can be fixed!
