    Hello everyone! My son, T4C0CH40S, showed me this forum and said I should register and show off my 1992 Toyota 3.0 V6 Pick-Up. Not a Tacoma but worth mentioning since it only has (as of today 4/23/11) 36K miles on it.
    Anyway, my son helped me with loading some picture since he mentioned they are of great importance to TacomaWorld members! Enjoy!

    Wow! I didnt expect all the messages, but thank all of you for the comments! Sorry I'm new to all this forum stuff so I'm a little slow for now.

    But yea you gotta love AZ for never really having to worry about rust!

    Now that Ive been looking through some of these other pages, hopefully I can find somebody that has some better knowledge than I do about lifts and suspension for my kind of truck. The rear end sags alittle bit, maybe since "everything" on the truck is stock except for the tires and wheels. I may need to buy some new shocks or a leaf pack or both?..

    My son took more pictures of my truck that are in my profile images. I know theres some pictures of the bottom and suspension if it helps.

    Thanks again guys!

    Wow! That is cherry. Wanna sell it?
    I had one very similar to that but regular cab. For the suspension I had an add a leaf in the rear, but put heavier torsion bars on the front. Gave about 2" of lift, but really stiffened her up just right. I even had a snow plow on it. (Which of course you would never need....LOL)
