The back seat does fold down in a 60 and it should have head rests. US models do. Show us some photos of the vehicles you're looking at. If starting from scratch I would go with the 100. Advantages of 60 are just that they look cooler and are easier to work on. I've had the EFI 60 series...

I've had a '90 for 17 years. It doesn't see a lot of miles (about 160K now) since it's a vacation home rig but it's always been dependable. 3.0 and auto. Most attractive 4Runner body style of them all, IMO.

Very nice rig. A stock 200 series with no mods would work fine for me. :) Can't drive to Alaska this year, unfortunately.

Need more info on condition of body and frame, plus photos!

Good job on the C channel project. Frame doesn't really look bad at all. Body needs some help though.

You would likely get a good deal on your dads' 2006 Tundra. 80 series? Over priced gas pigs prone to HG failures. A no brainer in my opinion. Actually, I'd just keep the '94 pickup but I guess you're not considering that as an option.

What year?

Got a photo of that? I'm also curious about the Moog problem solver components that SevenFaux referred to. My '95 has just a bit over 100K miles on it now. Suspension and steering has held up fairly well, but I just run stock size tires.

Seems high for Alaska market, if that's where it's at.

Where are you located? Lets see some pics, weather be damned.

I can't imagine travelling comfortably with two huge, smelly dogs in the cabin with me. My advice is to get a moderately sized pickup and pitch a tent to camp in.

You've fixed the big ticket items so no point in dumping money into an engine swap. Sounds like you're tired of it and it's time to just move into something else. I don't have a problem with slow and would keep it.

For a daily driver and road trip truck I don't understand the urgency in lifting it. Or lifting it at all, for that matter. Will you be carrying a lot of weight in the rear? If the sag isn't bad and you don't have plans for a great deal of weight remember that more leaves/stiffer springs...

One thing to consider is how much your springs are currently sagging. I bought 1 1/2 to 2 inch lift shackles for my TLC and they probably provided 1" at most over actual stock ride height with no adverse effects over many years. https://www.4crawler.com/4x4/ForSale/Shackles.shtml is where I'd...

I would. That thing is way cool and the price is quite affordable.

Just noticed you're only considering a minor downsize-that probably won't do much. Truck is lifted a bit, right? That's a MPG loser too. Hey, I seem to recall warning you! ;)

Truck with stock size tires should get 16-18 mpg. At least, that's what my 3.0 auto tranny 4Runner with 160K miles gets. So yes, lighter wheels and smaller tires should make a noticeable difference.

Go to IH8MUD for the most info on the 70 series LC. They have a sub forum specifically for these. I gather that the L engine is pretty much a dog with not much HP or torque for a heavy wagon. Some of them have a bad rep for blowing up too.

Offset or backspacing? You can calculate either with a tape measure. RE: Nissan vs. Toyota, probably a rare exception but I actually preferred my hardbody truck to my Toyota, '95 vs. '92.

What rear bumper are you using, and what prompts the desire for a PS cooler?
