Back in the seat of a Yota

New to the site and wanted to introduce myself. What up to all the Co. Yota drivers. Been a while (14 years) since my last Yota, it was a 81 long bed SR5 on 33's. Man did I love and beat the crap out of that thing, I was young and dumb for sure. Long story short it was absolutely beautiful when I got it and not so much when I sold it.
Now one to my new purchase, Gray 1987 4runner, 5 speed bone stock with 330,000 miles. 2 owners and it spent most of it's life in Oregon. Previous owners used the 4wheel drive like 5 times and maintained it really well. Runs absolutely great, 2 small spots of rust is all, inner door jambs. and the interior is pretty damn clean. Would like to find a new gray dash pad, mine has a few cracks as most do. Gonna get 31's on it as soon as I can find a used set, got 2 bills saved up right now. It's hard being a single dad. Already picked up some TJ springs to do a quick ZUK lift. Gonna leave it at that for the moment minus basic maintenance. First mod will be bumpers and sliders(hopefully out of my extra pay check in May and a trip to Addicted offroad, already have a brand new warn 8k winch just waiting to be mounted) then on to 4.88's and lockers. After that will be a minor lift to fit 33's. Eventually wanna SAS it.

Congratulations on your purchase. I can relate (sort of) - I had to give up my '95 Tacoma because of money issues and the regular cab wouldn't fit my family in it. After 4 long years (not quite 14), I finally got back into an '04 Tacoma that I bought in Taos, NM... I was smiling the whole way home.
Sounds like you are wasting no time getting back into business. Can't wait to see pictures.
