Stoked for a new project! 🍻 $4k seems about right to me, especially for someone who knows how to work on it. Congrats on the Ford too, looks like another good deal! Prerunner would be badass and different from Jeeps.

E locker rear end is solid. My old 98 had over 300k miles on it and literally no issues. Fab tech shocks are boat anchors. My dad has some on his 2001 and I’ve literally never ridden in a rougher riding truck. Bilstein 5100’s are an upgrade and a fraction of the cost when it comes to ride comfort.

Good deal on that Ford and good deal on the Tacoma. It having a 3.4, 5speed and rear elocker you scored for 4k. If I were you, I would redo the suspension and get some better upper control arms... maybe a LT set up and 4link the back and redo the rear shock mounts with bypass shocks. Kinda prerunner style but keep it 4wd and on 35s... maybe 37s with the right LT set up and some 4.88s👌

That’s a steal for what it is. Most people will say it’s trash and not worth it. But you can get a bed for around $700 and it won’t cost that much to get that suspension running well. Ditch the wheels/tires. Put it on 35s with lighter wheels Fix the body damage as much as you can. Make a cool bumper for the back and some sliders and you’ll be able to sell that thing for 15k
