Howdy from new guy. I just bought a 1980 w/ 20R & 4spd. The PO got creative. He extended the cab about 6". Then shortened a later bed to fit. Then covered it in bed liner. Fine for a trail rig, but not pretty. At least the driveline & suspension got done ok. The 4 cyl got a weber and header. Runs strong. The lift is NWOR springs. Has receiver hitches front & rear. Don't know what is in the axles yet. 31" tires.
The ad said it had issues, but ran & was cheap. Figured I could sort it out & sell. Had to fix some wiring issues & it ran fine. So then I had to take it out & see how it performed. Took it on local trail that was fairly easy. It just tractored along in 4HI. Probably could have done most in 2 whl. My Dodge would've had to knock trees down where the Yota squeezed through. I'm impressed, so now my Dodge is getting sold instead.
This truck is gonna stay a trail rig. Will fix interior some. The PO had scraped some of the liner off to redo, so that will have to get done. Pretty much just plan to wheel the crap out of it. Lots of trails here.
