. . . barely scrapin' by . . . COIGNA in San Antonio, TX

Hey what's up everybody

I just got a stock 1991 V6 5sp Xtra cab Toy about a month ago... have been lurking here since then.

Collecting parts right now to bag it this summer.... buying, selling, and trading stuff, so far I've got:

- 20" KMC Unit rims/tires. these are sick but fitment?! LOL. may have to trade down to 18s
- 2 slam RE8s for the rear
- AVS notch/bridge kit with Star brackets
- 12 gallon air tank
- 8 italian 3/8" valves. Gonna sell em & get 8 Blitzluft 1/2"
- 10 switchbox, green
- 2 dual-needle gauges, one single needle
- 3 gauge panel with iron cross cutouts
- front torsion bar brackets
- 2 Viair 450c chrome... gonna sell/upgrade to 480c
- Square D 200psi adjustable pressure switch

Still need:

- 4 link or wishbone setup
- 2 slam RE7s for the front
- 2 trailer fenders for bed (found em today)
- firewall tubs (prolly use a 3rd fender cut in half)

This summer is suspension, winter or next summer will be body shaving and paint... I've been wavering between Cybergreen or Gloss Black... headed toward Gloss Black at this point. Air tank and stars on bridge & link bars will be House of Kolors Organic Green. Shaving everything I can.

Considering the 4Runner front conversion. What years fit? Also 4wd fenders... what years?

Hoping to make some friends on here... hit me up on here or email

Thanks in advance for the welcome!

KMC Unit - but these are 17s:


AVS Bridge Kit:

Welcome to the site! Let's see some before pics of what you're starting with.

I love the black one you posted

Welcome!!

i dig the green

Thx everyone...

Still: thx!

Baha: As soon as I figure out how to host pix on here from my comp... I'll start a build thread once things get rolling along also...

Vegas: ya me too... but I saw another pic of a black one which won me over for the black(on my comp, can't find it online again but when I figure out image hosting here, I'll post it). Oh wait, its the one in my avatar... gotta see it full pic tho. Maybe next paint job will be green LOL.

i would run 17's.......but im biased haha, i just don't like big wheels at all. I would upload your pictures to photobucket and post the IMG tag here on the site.

Also, don't run slam 8s, trade those for some 6's and run your 7's out back and 6's out front. Your going to lock out your suspension before you need taller bags.

Bump: yeah, i should set up on photobucket... never messed with it before but maybe its time LOL.

Hmmm... I like the big rim look... to a point. Lowest I wanna go is 18s & only if I have to... but the more i look around the more I'm encouraged that 20s can be done, with more work of course...

Re: the RE8s....what do you mean? I def wanna avoid that. Wouldn't suspension lock out depend on the setup? RE7 and RE8 have the same usable stroke of 8.2" and differ in max height by only 1"

Thx,
