    It's less Tacoma and more mod

    that is the next big plan... been scouring CL and boneyard sites this evening. Not much on CL at all and I'm not tyler - can't go digging around the big yards north of us in the valley, not enough time.

    The only junkyard parts I pulled myself in my 4x4 swap was a front differential and the black shifter console from a 1996 4Runner Limited, and that was purely by coincidence.

    I bought everything else from the 1st Gen Marketplace, eBay, and www.car-part.com

    What kind of 4WD are you doing?

    Crazy idea: but how about you just use the existing switch you have, yet sideways?

    2nd gen runner has the switch type where you can flip the decal 90°. And switch to an Amber light cap

    There's something wrong with you.

    This is coming from a person who restored a perfectly working welder and re-made the serial number sticker in Illustrator because I didn't like the way it looked.

    same boat as matt (uphills) figure manual hubs will be a lot easier than trying to deal with all that other stuff. Been reading quite a bit of matt's thread and frenchtaco's thread. Some good stuff there.
