    Thanks Robmonster, I'll tag you in my other thread.

    Calling today on some trucks being parted out. Hopefully that'll work out. If not, I'll be hitting on a buddy that builds long travel buggies to get a couple cross members fab'd up.

    Does anyone know if the seat cushions from a 3rd gen 4Runner can be disconnected and swapped from side to side? I.e. Put the passenger seat cushion on the driver side.

    Looking at a set on CL that are in very good shape aside from a tear on the driver bolster. Wouldn't be an issue if I could swap it to the passenger side.




    Installed some led turn signals/hazards

    Can you even flat tow the Tacoma? I heard most Toyotas can't be flat towed for some reason.

    Anything can be flat towed if you take the driveshafts off ;)

    From what I've read on RV forums, manual transmissions seem to do fine with flat towing.

    You can not flat tow a tacoma unless you disconnected the drive shaft. I know the older ones with manual hubs you can tow with a tow dolly backwards with the hubs unlocked

    Wheel mounting surface. Basically the length of the axle without wheels on it.
