    Everything but the driveshaft. B03A - 410
    Helps keep our resale values high. But then it makes it nearly impossible to find one in a salvage yard for extra parts.

    1st gen Tacos are going to become like an FJ40 sooner than we think.

    Well I blew out two tires on the Lexus over a pothole and most likely killed two of the shocks and a tie rod. So now Ive got new Tein suspension on the way and some tie rods. Already replaced the tires. Gonna do two of the front control arms too

    I think I'm gonna. No reason to keep the stock Lexus springs for fear of comfort loss since the Eibach ones are technically Lexus springs too. They wouldnt choose them if they didnt still ride well.

    It was enough to make me get out and check the car after and find one completely flat tire and another draining fast.

    Some are done right, some are awful, and most are just old and neglected with lots of potential.

    I drive by one every day thats parked on a side street in that same silver and red color..if only

    I don't know if it's the exact same year but it's a very similar old body style Dodge Ram, looks pretty clean. 4 door though I think
