    I couldn't find any Toyota pickup forums to post this in, I might be blind. But I figured she deserved a goodbye post somewhere.

    This little shit box slapped limiter for the last time over the holidays, been on more fucked up adventures with this thing than Id like to admit.
    Passenger LCA Found some parking boulders buried in a snow bank going 30. Needless to say frame crumpled like a can and the rear LCA mount is now almost touching the diff. JDfab kit and all the heim steering, suspension parts, and such are fine, just point-loaded the frame instead... why do we even bother making our trucks strong
    :annoyed:



    so like SAS...?

    My parents had a 92 reg cab that I drove in HS and later I bought a 93 Xtra cab from my buddies dad. Both 6 lug/6 cylinder. Best feeling manual gearbox trucks I've ever driven. Just something about the way the shifter tilted over by my leg.

    Fuck it, keep it and cut it up, SAS, whatever..

    Your truck your call!
