    What would it take for me to swap out my front end for the 96 4wd front end?

    My idea behind this is that a 96 4wd front end would look sick if I did a satoshi and add a large TOYOTA logo in the center.

    Not sure about specifics, but I know that blkcoma32 has a 98 that he bought with a 97 face swapped on. It looks like the hood is the same (unlike the 01-04s, which are curved at the bottom), and it may have all the same mounts for the clips, lights, etc. Just do some looking around in the two different tacos, if you can.

    It would defiantly be a world of improvement... If you could get the parts cheap enough, I would defiantly try.
