I really want a Runner for the seating, storage, sleep, etc.
I have an 86 Runner that is sitting here. no drivetrain in it that I was going to 3.4, duals, blah blah
I also have a 92 excab pickup that is pretty much built up. Already has 3.4 swap, duals, axles, chromos, etc.
I am thinking to just swap the Runner body onto the pickup.
now I know that "anything is possible with a plasma, grinder, and welder" but has anyone done that or know of a write.
I am sure its been done a bunch of time and I can't see it being that difficult but trying to be eyes wide open before I leap
Honestly, the biggest appeal is that the truck is already smog inspected through the ref and good to go. I really am just dreading that whole process again on another build of the 4runner. Swapping the body takes all that off the table and its what I want
