    By the looks of things so far frame is good. hoping motor is fine. Got lots of other things to worry about the the next few months but thinking cab swap and maybe SAS will be in order. Bring my truck back from the dead eventually.

    Change of heart, taco is getting parted out. I got a 84 pickup now :cool:

    so if anyone is looking for random parts let me know. In a few weeks once I am a bit more healed up I will be tearing the whole thing apart. Would like to find someone who is planning on doing a 4x4 conversion on a pre runner and get rid of all my 4wheel drive components at once. motor and tranny for sale too. basically everything is good besides the cab.

    only thing I am keeping is the rear axle so I can put it under my 84

    Just passed the info along to someone I know that recently picked up a prerunner and is planning a 4WD conversion. Good luck with the part out and the new truck.

    Thanks, well...it did surprisingly well for what it went through haha. The carrier was ripped off and i'm thinking the passenger corner of the bumper hit something HARD cause that got bent to shit. Unfortunately the bumpers are totalled. My sliders held up though :D

    Hey thanks man, i appreciate that. Let them know too that If they aren't ready to do the conversion yet but are planning on it in a month or two I am willing to hold parts.
