Packed tight with a stock 22RE in
the engine bay, this 1992 Toyota Pickup has much more to offer the
great outdoors and rugged trails of Northern Arizona than the
average stocker. It's got the bread basket of trail-tough
equipment.
Let's begin from the ground up. Speak of clawing
through the Arizona terrain, we begin with the heart and soul of
traction, the 32-inch BFGoodrich Mud-Terrains. They roll straight,
true and through the rough, using 15x10 Black Rock Crawler rims as
their vehicle of motion.
Working our way
up, we find oursevles at the standard IFS suspension, proving once
again that Toyota are built ready to embard upon the outdoors.
Although it boasts your average set of Rancho RS5000s, it gains
some additional travel from a set of "ultra low-profile" bump
stops. It doesn't end there, though. Say bye-bye to mister sway
bar. He took the trash train to the dump.We'll end our suspension rant right there.Now, onto the rest of the story. The three-inch body lift, in
addition to the hacked fender wells, are easy and inexpensive
modifications that add some serious room for the bad ass BFGs to do
their trail work.
Got communications? This
rig's got it! The CB radio rounds up the other trail Toys and the
less fortunate stuck trucks this Toy is in charge of extracting.
For tunes, it's got your average brain-smashing sound system --
nothing much to brag about but certainly something to keep your
ears drums onto.
Finishing up the items
this rig has so far accumulated, the Power Tank tops the charts.
There's nothing like having the ability to use your air tools and
air-up your club's tires on a trail run. Manditory in my book, the
Hi-Lift Jack is always a must-have. And this rig has one.
Containing all those tools and supplies, the Husky Toolbox stands
at the ready in the toy's bed, along with the Gator-net and custom
rear bumper.
Is that all! Not hardly! Many
more mods are on their way!
