Mini 5 lug w/ fender flares (PICS)

Back in July I purchased some rear tacoma fender flares and ever since I was searching for some fronts. But the tacoma fender flares for the front only fit 4wd fenders and I didnt wanna spend allot of money for them. So the other day I found a 4Runner at the junk yard, And I thought to myself "man those fender flares look like they'd fit my front 2wd fenders perfectly" and sure enough they did. So I bedlined all my fender flares and here they are installed. Fronts are off a 98 4Runner and rears are from a 01-04 Tacoma.

 

i like it....looks pretty sweet man!

 

Only thing their a little short on the bottom in the front. Just thinking of getting a piece of flat black vinyl.

 

that would work just to make it a lil more uniform.......but they fit pretty good.

 

Yeah its the best thing I found for the 2wd fenders Couldnt find any other options that wouldn't be expensive.

 

Why wouldn't the 4wd flares fit? I would suppose that toyota uses the same fenders between 4wd and 2wd...seems like it'd be too much of a hassle to make separate fenders just for a different drivetrain...

 

sorry i know this is an old thread, but what year tacoma did those rear flare come off of? im in the process of trying to do this myself!

 

No problem...it shows that you searched hah.

Um it looks like you have a 2nd gen prerunner. Although you list it as manual, and no prerunners come with a standard transmission. Maybe you can clarify your truck a little more?

OP has a 1st gen 2wd truck though, which has a different suspension/frame and slightly different front end. The prerunner has 4wd-style body and suspension, so any 4wd 2nd gen's flares would fit just fine in that case.

 

Right now im driving a 05 v6 6 speed prerunner. they do come factory 6 speed or auto. I am about to sell it and score a 04 5 speed 5 lug from my uncle (just hit 24,000 miles ;D) and was curious as to how I should go about putting flares on it so I can slap on some really aggressive offset's.
