Trust me, it will be ALOT easier to work with what you have already than to try and make it fit something it was never designed to.

Toyota mated to Jeep, sounds like a crime against nature.

Bobbed and dove-tailed the box on my 95 Taco..It wasnt bad at all.  A little time consuming, but not bad.  It was fun and something different.  I have to say that I would much rather do it all over again....and again, than try to fit my Toyota on a Jeep frame!

ok thanks i thought it would be easier but what i didnt think of is the body mounts lining up and everything else going in to it like the motor.
