So here is the plan so far.
- OME lift from Cruiser Outfitters (HD up front)
- Wheels Vintiques 12-Series Smoothie 16" x 6" (Come in white but would probably get the color change, not sure to what)(same wheels For Sale - 91 HZJ75 Troopy 22,000KM's)
- Falken 28037611 Wildpeak AT3W- 285/75R16 126R (33s)
Congrats on a rad truck!
The Vintiques don't balance that easily and are pretty heavy. The 16" steel rim from Toyota is higher quality (42601-60262-03)....but expensive. The City Racer 16" are excellent quality but even more expensive.
Several 70's are running around on Tacoma steel rims with success as well.
If those white alloys are Bradley V's from Japan you should consider running them. Very strong and light.

5 lug rim Matt. Won't work on anything before 1999. 16x8 and it is basically a 5 lug version of the 42601-60361 it seems.
lol...I totally overlooked that part. Thank you Beno.
Totally a very cool find Matt. And stored now in my databanks...
I have a number of clients with 5 lug 7x series and they have often asked for steel wheels. These work great.

If they want to run 5 lug split rims let me know, I have plenty new take offs of those in Europe complete with new tires on them

I bought that Troopy in your link. Removed the Vintiques and went with the factory 70 series steel wheels and had them powder coated black.

The truck is in my possession!
The Bradley V wheels are growing on me so I do plan to keep those and maybe spray them a different color down the road.
I tested everything I could yesterday and did find that the overdrive button isn't currently doing anything.
I hit the button going around 100km/h and no light on the dash appeared. My manual for the truck comes today so maybe I am doing something wrong or it might be a solenoid.

ordered, thanks!
They are somewhat pricey but are a lot of bang for the buck.

Here are some quick images of the new truck.
HJZ77 - Google Drive
note its in NC not Texas.

Question, I should be able to throw in the 285/75R16 tires before adding the lift correct? Or should I try and do that at the same time.
