what's the plans for it? I have a 91 2wd project for this winter in the garage. It looks exactly like yours just add some rust and lose a fender.

Had to Fab fuel tank mount. Somehow the past owners installed a crushed 17 gallon 4 runner tank. Broke off the rear fuel tank mount and had a strap holding it together. Weird...........

So I fabbed and fixed using the correct fuel tank.........Crazy thing people do.

Nice I've always wanted to build a Prerunner but live in the worst place possible for that.

Any plans for Long Travel Suspension in the future?

Probebly will do. Got a bunch of great shops for modding in SoCal and in Phoenix.

Right now I just couldn't stand the mini truck look it had. A truck ,even 2wd, should be able to go off road.
