    Hey there, I've been a member over at Toyota Nation and found out about this forum too, Good stuff over here.
    Anyways I thought I would start a project thread over here too so here she is

    I bought this truck a year ago
    '91 Toyota Pickup 2WD 22RE 4Cyl with 190,000mi that i got for $1350.
    The engine and clutch have 15,000 mi on them when I got it (or they say)
    There are New shocks all around and I did the rear brakes.
    Body Damage, but nothing to bad

    Im in Eugene, Oregon.
    Im planning on lowering it just a little bit, I'm thinking BJ Flip and Either Blocks in the rear or take out a leaf, what do you think?

    Other plans is to get a D/S fender and a new/or repair the bed and paint

    I did Belltech 2" drop spindles, kept most of the factory ride, and 3" blocks. There are quite a few guys on here that did BJ flips, though.

    You gonna do blocks as well or just remove a leaf?

    I'd do blocks first, then go from there.

    I would cause then you could still put a load in it if you need to. I did 3" blocks and left my leafs alone.
