    1998 V8 Taco
    well, ever since my truck was bought back by Toyota ive been really bored. Just over year ago i rolled my daily driver 98 taco. Since then its been sitting in my back yard being parted out waiting to go to scrap. I ended up finding a 96 tacoma cab in amazing shape with complete interior for $900 canadian. So i decided to rebuild the truck. Im not gonna say what my plans re so you'll just have to keep coming back to this thread to check the progress lol

    heres what i started with

    im using a rear out of a 92 2wd pre-taco. im not to sure if the 4wd rear ends would work. i found a shitload of pre-taco 4wd rear ends but i didnt wanna use those cause they were 6 lugs.
