    I'm looking to trade my 4WD stuff out of my truck to turn it into a PreRunner. Decided that since I never go off road and it's only rear wheel drive anyway I might as well shed the added weight of the 4WD system and save some money at the pump. On that note, wondering if anyone would be willing to swap out their 4cyl for my V6 since I don't really tow either....

    Nobody needs a locker. If you're a true off-roader, you should be able to make it anywhere in 2wd. :boink:

    Pre Runner turn 4x4 as a follow on to pretending to drive a 4Runner...

    https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/anyone-pretend-they-drive-a-4runner.398536/

    I can only conclude one or more of the following are true.

    1.) Shwaa = tcbob and he's driving post count to increase shareholder value of his multi-international conglomerate & attempting world domination.

    2.) OP consumes copious amounts of alcohol &/or other mind altering substences.

    3.) OP & I both enjoy a sport only I do mine in the water with a motor running and typically off shore as opposed to on line.

    4.) OP is seeking attention, any kind of attention (even bad attention is "good" to some).

    I'll leave out all the additional & sub-catagories that come to mind and how said behaviors may have developed or evolved.

    I'll take them. I'll need them when I put my 8" lift on my newly converted 4WD to PreRunner. Anyone know what I'll need to do to stuff 38" TSL Super Swamper Boggers on my new PR? Should I go with an ARB locker on the rear or a Detroit? Thanks for all the help!

    All you'll need to fit 38's is a BFH

    And neither locker, just open it up and weld the sum bitch together. That way its stronger and is 150% more effective than an ARB and Detroit combined.
