Hey Guys
A friend of mine at work has a 99 Tacoma "Prerunner". He came on my last Baja trip with me and now wants to build up his truck.
Current State:
-Stock Drivetrain and suspension
-3" Body Lift (washboard roads in baja cracked some welds because of this)
-2wd
The Project:
-Convert to 4x4
-Remove Body Lift
-Install Elocker in the rear
-Install Old Man Emu Suspension
I found a great thread detailing the swap here:
http://www.tacomaterritory.com/wiki/index.php/Prerunner_to_4_wheel_drive_conversion
So, now we are in parts collection mode. If anyone has any leads on the following, please let me know via email or PM.
-Front Diff (with mounting and brackets
-Tranny/Tcase Combo
-CV's
-Driveshafts
-Spindles
-Hubs
The e-locker rear will be phase 2, now we just want to do the conversion.
He is a student worker/intern so $ is tight.
Thanks for any info, parts or advice.
