    almost everything you could imagine, except kitchen sink and toilet.
    This dream all started for me in 1986 when I fell in love with Toyota trucks. I have done everything to this truck myself except 1 mod. It's feels great to finally almost be done with her and now she stays in the garage till needed. Still use it for work truck and deer hunting from time to time. Been the best truck I've ever owned. 7" total lift, Onboard air system, cold air intake/spacer
    35's Toyo open country, train horn and adjustable light bar. Feel free on any advise on future mods thanks.

    Thanks all for looking.

    I do appreciate it! Would like to have it geared. It's still factory and so is the clutch at 190k.
