Hey all. I've wanted to build a prerunner for a long time, but have been mostly into hot rods and lowered trucks. I can fab, weld, wire, and do most work required. Not going to beam or link this truck, but I may build another in the future. Actually, I'd probably buy someone else's project and fix it.

I bought this truck about 7 years ago for $500.00. It's an '85 SR5 that rod #3 decided to make inspection windows on both sides of the block, so I have another 22RE to build. I had intended to make a fun cruiser out of it so I immediately lowered it and put on a set of BMW 17's.

Being that everything I have is lowered and I do a lot of coyote hunting I needed something to run dirt roads with, so this one is going UP.

So far I've bought lift spindles, upper A arms and dual front shock hoops from Custom Tube Works, 63" Chevy springs, a FabWorks 63" spring kit, a trussed 8.8, Hanneman Fiberglass front and rear fenders, and other miscellaneous stuff.
