My truck is a 1985 double cab model with the 2.4 litre 2Lt turbo diesel motor. The air is fed via a safari snorkel flowing into a finer filter air cleaner element. The wheels are 15x8 inch R.O.H alloys shod with 31x10.5 Kumho 832 Powerguards. There is an OME nitrocharger shock in each corner and the rear has had a 2 inch lift (the truck sits nice and level with my Honda quad on the back) with the front to still be done at a later date. The interior has been upgraded using parts from a donor 85 4runner, this is also where the side steps came from. The alloy front bar is custom made locally.This is primarily my work (farm) truck, but it does alot of club work also, we have a very active club here in the Manawatu. The photo was taken on a club run up in the Ruahine ranges. Andrew Nelson

My 93 22RE is stock except for the 31x10.5 BFG's, 3" suspension lift. It's got approx. 97K absolutely trouble free miles on it (Everything original)!! When I get a chance, I take it with my wife and kids(5) offroading and fishing around Concord, Ca. where we live. It goes just about anywhere. Someday I'd like front & rear 4.88's and Softlockers.

Jason's 1984 Toyota XtraCab SR5 resides in Bothell, WA. 3" Skyjacker springs, 2" Con-ferr shackles, and a 3" Trailmaster bodylift help clear 33-12.50/15 Super Swamper Bias Ply tires mounted on custom 15X8 black wagon wheels with 2" backspacing. All-pro shock hoops allow the use of Rancho RS9000 9012s up front. RS9000s are also in the rear. Both diffs sport 4.88 gears with a Lock-Rite in the rear end. Under the hood, the 22R has a Weber Carb, Offy intake, Schneider cam, a NWOR header,and is cooled by an electric fan. If you think, this truck is a little stubby, it's because 15" were taken out of the bed to allow for a greater departure angle and less of a chance of smacking the back end on any trail hazards.
Wolfgang's '92 Hilux is powered by the stock 2L-Diesel engine performing 79HP out of 2.4 litrtes. It has a solid axle/ leaf spring setup in the front and in the rear.

Tyler's 1984 Xtra cab Toy Pickup has a 4" Rancho suspension lift, riding on BFG 33" Mud terrains that sit on American Racing rims.

This was shot in his hometown of Woodland California, But he now resides in Chico California where he plans to drop in a nice and powerful Chevy 4.3 liter V6.
My name is Brett Harding and I'm from Perth Western Australia and this is my ride, a 1980 Toyota Hilux (pickup) short wheel base. It's powered by a 6cyl Holden 202ci with an '84 gearbox and stock transfer case. It has a Dick Cepek 3" body lift with re-arched heavy duty leaf springs (about an extra 3") that make room for 35"x12.5 BFG All Terrain's. It has a Dick Cepek dual shock setup on the front with Old Man Emu shocks on the rear. It runs on dual fuel (L.P.G & petrol - in Australia L.P.G is about a third of the price of petrol making it cheap to run). This photo is from a place called Mandurah about an hour's south of Perth. Future mod's (hopefully) will include a Chevy 350ci, auto and 38.5" Swampers.
