1994 pickup 5 inch sas build with pics

Hey all, i posted up this thread earlier but my computer was breaking and i couldnt finish uploading all the information and pics. So here it goes!

First off i was introduced to these toyota trucks when i moved to a town in Washington state. At my high school i saw all these nice little lifted trucks everywhere and was wondering what the heck they were! The first toyota truck that motivated me was a guy who had an IFS lifted truck. It had a 5-6 inch suspension and 1.5 bj spacer with a 3 inch body lift on it. I really got interested in these trucks shortly after...... A few months later i got into a dirtbike crash and went into a coma. Months later i got out of the hospital and purchased my first toyota pickup 4wd. It was an 89 22re automatic ext cab 4x4 with a 4" suspension lift on 33s. I drive that truck quite a bit and loved every minute of it.......Until i let one of my buddies drive it and the head gasket blew up. I got that fixed and sold her shortly after because i was moving to arizona. As soon as i moved to arizona i got a 95.5 tacoma with the 3rz automatic. I drove her for a few months but quickly got bored and tired of the automatic. So i bought a 94 pickup with the 3vze 5-speed with 184,000 on her. She had a 5" suspension lift and came with a set of 33s and 30s. I sold the 33s and a whole bunch of other things i had laying around so that i could start what i had wanted to do for over a year....The SAS!

So hopefully you guys like this thread and hopefully my pics will upload.

A word of advice...

RELOCATE THE AIR BOX for the air intake or get a snorkel! I noticed you play in the mud - I did too with my 93 xtra cab until I hit about a foot of water and waked water into the air intake (located stock behind the driver's side headlight)...that was the love of my life and now it's at the scrap yard

Dang im sorry about your old truck ... Thanks the advice, but I actually dont have this truck anymore, i traded it for a 98 TRD tacoma with the 3.4. I like it alot more even though the old owners treated it like a dodge.... Im fixing her up slowly but surely
