    i have just purchased a 1986 toyota pickup. it 2wd and has a 22r carb engine. truck currently has 76k original miles and bone stock! my plans right now are to solid axle swap. i have done some searching but also would just like info and opinions from you all. what i would like to accomplish is:
    i would like to be able run 33" to 35" tires and dont mind trimming fenders and bed wheel openings. currently the truck is a automatic transmission and thought i may convert to 5 speed manual. im aware i will need a 6 lug toyota rear axle as well as solid front axle that i may have found from a 83 toyota pickup. also they have the rear that im unsure if its best i use that?
    what else do i need and what do you all recommend?

    i would like to build this to be a decent trail rig as well as get parts needed as cheap as possible. ***so if you or if you know anyone selling parts that will help me with this project, please contact me and i would greatly appreciate it.

    i do have cash now to start buying parts to begin this build!!!
