    Glad to see all the responses. I had the truck since early this year and it looked like a descent lowride work truck. From wut I seen and noted on the the truck was that it had not been takened cared of for a long time. Tons of oxidation, rust holes, brake lines were cut and pinched and the engine doesnt start easily. My plans are to go all out from chassis up. Im looking around and talking to some peeps here to see how they had started off. Hoping to get specs on air bag suspension and looking for a 95' 4runner front end to modifiy onto my 90' hilux. Any tips would help.

    Thanks gents.

    welcome to TM, post up some pics. $runner front end bumper will bolt right up if you have the brackets to. The grille and headlights need alittle mods done to it to make it fit but not hard. There is alot of write ups on how to do it. Sounds like you got a nice project on your hands. So once again post some pics of her.
