Welcome to Toyota Minis ! Hello & welcome to Toyota minis, its always awesome to see more 2nd generation Toyotas joining up. Looking forward to seeing more pics of your ride & joining you in the forums ! http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2619563 http://www.toyotaminis.com/gallery/data/502/100-0227_edit_size.jpg LowNloud
Thanks Thanks for the welcome... Here's an image of my truck, before the primer... I had a red bed on it, but colored it white, with a little bit of help from photoshop.., i also swapped out the doors for a single piece window, and converted them to power windows, it also has a 86 2wd front bumper and 95 side mirrors.., since that picture, i also have ripped off all of the interior, including the dash, heater, a/c, and plan to do a custom dash on it.. we'll see.. I have so many plans for the mini.. the number one thing i really want to do to it first though is a body drop..
I don't have enough experience to do the body drop myself, so I'm going to have a local shop do the body drop... I'll look for some recent pictures and post them..
thanks.. Thanks east1la and DietoRemain... I hope to have some new pictures up.. all i have is some older pics...
images Here are more pics of my yota.. Here's an image of both of my yotas my suspension.. it was done by candospecialties, in oroville... =] thanks steve..
Nice ride. Steve does awesome work, just talked to him today actually. I'm about to order my 4-link from him.
steve - cando Chopped... yeah, he does awesome work..., but he's also a great guy.. always willing to help us mini-trukers... that's tight that you're getting your 4-link.. =] post some pics man.. wanna see the ride..
i wish i could get another toy for a daily driver, but doing 60mi a day i cant, that and my geo metro works good other truck looks good man, whats the plans on that 1?
wow dude that 4link is clean I love how your compressors are mounted. what are those? (viair's 460's?) What bags you runnin!? Im just curious my tacos gettin bagged soon. And you have a red bed its gonna be like me Im probably swapping beds with a guy so i'll be rollin a white taco with a primer black bed! haha. who cares its got a sick cali combo and its already cut out for the bridge..
Frinzo..Yeah.. I like my daily driver.., though I drive my bagged yota more... I bought my black yota for 500.00 dollars on ebay.. what it was all messed up... it took a good while to get it up to par..... i just lowered the front and back (torsion bars and 3"blocks in the back), black sherman williams paint, added the phantom grill, montero bucket seats, sir.michaels roll pan, and some Konig wheels that i bought on ebay for 300.00.. no major plans for it though.. here are some before and after shots... DietoRemain... the compressors are VIAIR 380's and the bags are slam bags..... 'bout the red bed... it's all good.. I rolled with a red bed for a good while.. then i primered it so that it would be at least one color.. hopefully after the body drop and the sheet metal work in the bed, shaving and some body mods... i'm gonna through some white paint on all of the truck.. hey.. post some pics of your yota..
I have a taco but i like to be a part of this community because I love the old school 'yotas but when my taco gets bagged i'll show ya all! you should sign up on CT too. its helpful for everyone. 380's thought they looked alot like mine. They are layin in my room. how big is your tank and how are they for you? Im runnin slams too. RE7's. they say great minds think alike! I wanna shave my gas filler door. And oh man im goin nuts to get my truck bagged trust me.
