    A whole lot
    I really don't know, it was my brother's truck for the longest time, and he treated it badly.
    It does have a newish motor and a new transmission now, and it only has 130k miles on it.
    Me and my dad are doing our best to revive it, last time I saw it before I put the wiring for the lights in I changed the oil and cleaned the MAF and throttle body out. It was horrible.
    It's got a K&N intake and my brother would drive it around with the air filter off, it wouldn't stay tight and he'd just let it fall off and let the engine suck in straight dirty air.
    That's the most ghetto rigged Taco I may have even seen.
    My dad took out the carpet and put bedliner on the floor, it was pretty dirty how it was.
    He just uses it to haul garbage off and whatever he can't fit in his new Ford Edge.

    The sway bar configuration and end links varied from 95-00 and 01-04. My is the former, yours looks to be the latter.

    Here's an 01-04 sway bar sitting on my bench. I'm pointing to the bushing (there's two of them per end link as you can see).

    EDIT: Just realized your truck is green. Still looks good though.

    Those wheels on black trucks rank high on my "that looks badass" scale. Probably dating myself here, but it reminds of the John Player Special F1 Lotus. Black and gold/copper is classic. Maybe throw on some color-matched pinstriping. :thumbsup:

    I was always drooling over the Corgi toy cars as a little kid.

    Always thought it was funny that I could lock my cap but then just open my tailgate to get in. This will only stop opportunists and the least motivated criminals.

    Like Fort effin' Knox now.

    The snow is nice and crusty now. Makes for more digging than wheeling. Still fun though :laugh: We had Ty's truck buried pretty good last weekend.

    I cleaned my MAF sensor and put in a new air filter. Then I also changed the fuel filter. It could be a blessing and a curse where I have it located because of trying to line up the copper crush washer. I had to use a mirror to line up the washer.

    Need help fast!!!
    So I installed my Ray 10's today with bfg all terrain ko2 31's
    I've got stock suspension and with the stock wheels and the ko2's there was little rub with almost full wheel turn.
    Now with the back space on the ray 10 its pushed out the wheel a little bit and now its rubbing really bad on the plastic part right under the wheel flare. I dont want to cut into the plastic part and saw part of the metal.
    So my question is, can a 2.5inch lift/level block fix this?

    I think your alignment may need addressed, I don't see how 31" BFG's could hit anything.
