Totaled my runner.. *Update* I got a 01 Tacoma yesterday!

Ya I hit a tree while swirving to miss a pac of wild pigs. So Pepe is no longer and will be towed early next week. The back right roof and side is smashed in. Insurance totaled it.

Does anyone know if the TJM 17 (straight bar) bumper will fit on my buddies 98 tacoma? Also will the Tacoma bumper mount up on the 4-runner because I have to put a stock one back on.

I had some Sway-away race runners on there and think they should fit the 98 Tacoma no problem.

TIA- Luke

sorry to hear about your runner man. Ive seen various runners and tacoma swaping fronts here in Hawaii. But still my guess would be no, on the fitting. Are you gonna part anything out?

Any chance you could post some pics of your Runners damage? Why not part it out rather than let some junk yard have it just to make a fortune off it?

may it R.I.P.

yea, the tjm will fit. i don't think the taco bumper will just bolt up, but you can try and if it doesn't, then get it on there enough to ride on a transport and don't worry about it. the coilovers will also swap over from the runner to the taco, and the taco coils will bolt on the runner.

I hae bolted the TJM up to my buddies 98 Taccoma and one bolted his stock one onto the runner. Now I need to find someone to take these Sway Away's off my hands. Does anyone know if the Race runners will fit on a 03 tacoma?

I also have:

400w JBL power amp.
encloed box w/ 2 - 12" mtx's
A k&N air filter for a 96 6 cyl.
Yakima copperhead bike racks fit a stock roof rack.
18" Beard limiting straps (w/o bracket welded to frame)
Compustar keyless ignition (need to get it uninstalled)
square hitch

My plan is to buy a truck my parents are selling. A 96 Chevy 4x4 1500 std cab std bed and buy a boat, cab over camper and a nice 4x4 Quad (so i don't wheel my friggin trucks anymore!) Someday I'll get something like my runner or my old 86 22re truck. Come to think of it I may just start looking for a 4x4 6 cyl xcab tacoma right now...

Well after hearing the news that my insurance company had sent my payoff check to the loan company, I started calling around for a new truck. I ended up flying up to Stevens Creek Toyota on my CBR600RR in the rain to sign papers yesterday (3 hr. round trip).
I got a 2001 Tacoma (gold)
4X4
TRD
X-cab
6 cyl.
5 speed
loaded with only 26,000 miles on it!
for 18,000 + tax & license.
I was stoked to hear Toyota was going to finance me. The dealer had not released this truck yet because they only had it for two days and it needed the H2o pump replaced. So I pick it up Monday. I had to sign papers yesterday because they had other people offering them more money. I had worked out a deal earlier in the day so they were obligated to sell it to me. They just needed my John Hancock (plus I wanted to see the truck in person...

I plan on installing
Keyless ignition/ entry
TRD exhaust (or sim)
Rims and mudders
And a lift kit. Any suggestions for an 01 Taco? Thanks!
