I'm sure you could figure it out. I would help you out but i'm pretty sure shipping would kill the whole thing.

I picked mine up for $30, they range from $20-$50 USD.

hmm thats not bad at all. if it was $40US itd be about NZ$58 or sumthin... i wonder what the frieght would be? some assrapingly high amount. what was required to make it fit? just custom base plates?

I didn't even have to make the new plate's just faster then grinding the old one's smooth. You just have to make it 2 inchs shorter. Not hard if you have to tool's to do it.

I love the fact that it looks like the 4Runner. You are right about the 1st gen one's.

This is installed in a 1st gen? I'm trying to figure out how to install mine on my 4Runner.

That is in my '89 1st Gen 4runner. The gauge in question comes from the 90-95 4Runners/Surfs, and are mostly right hand drive... IE slopping the wrong way...

I was able to cut enough of the bottom off to get it slopping the correct way for this install, but it's still a little off....
