    I am wanting to pick up a vehicle that I can use as a DD but hopefully wheel a little bit too, ideally it would meet some of the follow critearia:

    Tacoma, 4runner, Landcruiser, FJ
    33" tires
    At least one locker
    Armor?

    What I would really like is an older 2nd gen Tacoma, but 1st gens are great as well!

    This vehicle would be great for someone who wouldn't use it as a DD, also it would be awesome for someone with fabrication skills. The next thing on my list was a swaybar, it would make driving it 100x better on the street, I just never did it.

    I just had a new rear driveshaft made by Olivers D-Shaft in Winston Salem, as well as a new rear end built by ECGS, these two things alone cost $1600, the parts haven't even been installed yet.
    I value this vehicle at around $13,500. I have almost that in the SAS alone bear in mind.

    So please keep in mind the value of the trade, try to keep it somewhere near the figure, not exact of course.

    Thats not terrible, I drive 12 miles one way to work on the highway, just wondering how much highway abuse it will take?
    My xj from years ago with 4.88's and detroit locker/trutrac didn't like it too much. It had a sway bar on the front with disconnects, but I would occasionally drive it with out them connected and a heim joint 3 link front end with no sway bar was zero fun at higher speeds.
