Toyota Tom
ParticipantI found some on Toyotafiberglass.com but it says it’s for the wrong year… 89-95 ? not sure if I can make them work or not.
Ill keep you posted if I decide to sell, I might do a seperte build page for the brown truck since that was my first one and don’t want I have two builds on one page lol
Also I have the first wheeling trip with my new truck planned for November 15th weekend at rays place in Minden if anyone is intested! More the merrier! Already have about 4 guys guys going

ParticipantPosting these for Tommy, he sent me them after a friend spotted him on the way home from his maiden voyage and sent me a pic. He’s wheeling her so I’m happy! We all have to get out there and have as much fun as him!

ParticipantF’in right buddy!! Tommy is having way more fun in the snow than I am. Glad I stumbled across this Monday morning carnage. With exception to the front driveshaft, I’m sure it’ll buff out.

ParticipantHaha it did so well! That was the rear shaft I broke! Worst part was I had a spare with me but I gave it to my buddy who broke his first lol
not going to cost me anything, I’ll have the rear shaft back this week and I have a new fender I can steal off the barn find but I won’t put I on till I build a cage for it. All in good fun!

ParticipantThis was at rays place in Minden. It’s a privately owned off-road park kinda thing, they have mud bogs and trails and a bunch of RVs you can rent to stay on for the weekend. We stayed at the cottage there and it was decent enough for a couple guys. I’ll definitely be going back when the trails are dry.
As for highlights, probably doing the rayzor trail there was the most fun, and seeing my buddy’s 92 4runner hurt feelings lol there was a Jeep XJ that was built up pretty good on 35s, and he had to winch up a hill he couldn’t make.. the stock 4runner just walked it!! It was awesome

ParticipantIs everyone dead on here from Corona Virus or what?
I met Toyota Tom at princess auto last week to give him the lug nut keys to the orange sapphire. His update made me happy, he got the truck into a new shop where he can tear down! I’m sure he’ll post himself but he said he got a short shifter, front locker, RCV axles and some other goodies, and he said it fired right up after the winter just like it always did!
Stole this pic from his Instagram, his buddy got a clean new first gen too. That’s the end of my update just wanted to keep people occupied if you happen to be off work or self isolating
