    Interesting 01-04 tacoma with 4runner front end swap.

    Looks just like a 01-04 front end was swapped to a 98-00 tacoma front end.

    I went to junk yard and did find a front end off a 2000 4 runner but I have a 2wd and think the 98 front end will look better as its more flush. No fender flares on fenders and bumper sits flush with grille.

    I dunno man, it's like those VW kits that put a Rolls Royce looking front end on a bug. It. Just. Looks. Weird.

    My monkey brain just can't accept it, lol

    I love the look of all those overseas trucks and suv’s they look tougher than the our stuff. I wonder if you can buy them and have them shipped here. Like the ones you see in Jack Hannas wildlife show
