I used my phone to take some pics of my fully legal mini land rover.
I finally put the P225-70R14 goodyear wranglers (i prefer BFG but I got these with 8k miles on them for 150$) It is lifted 1 1/2 inches from what it was, prob about 1/2 inch over stock due to weak springs (new springs will be coming in a few months hopefully.) It has great ground clearance now with the wranglers. I have a lot of fun with this little car and I want a newer model car because the tercel is a "pretty lady" but oh well I still love it!
(all of my fenders are rolled on the inside to keep from cutting up the tires)
YES i NEED turn signal lens I stole the ones off of my 86 toyota truck but they werent a perfect match, close enough to pass inspection though, if anybody has some extra's let me know.

Re: low quality pics of my beast.
Wow, looks mean! Does the engine have enough power to turn that large a tire?

For the turn lights, goto a junkyard and grab all of the ones off the tercels. I seriously have to put new ones on every month. I'll hit mud and they'll be shattered. Stupid design.

Re: low quality pics of my beast.
the 3ac is all stock with 265k miles and it does ok, it could use more power but in el gear it feels like 1st with the little 13's. It still keeps up with highway traffic, speedo is off though. I pass people left and right when going 65. This car was not that fast with the 13s but the 14s did slow it down some. I would like to run a efi 4a-ge with a small turbo. The clutch and the reverse gear give me the most trouble. The reverse isnt low enough and when i try to rev it up and drop the clutch it slips some in tough 4x4 situations.

I left mine where it was...but bent it back at 45* and used coat hanger wire to keep it there...can still see it from front, but nothing catches it now.tercelboy wrote:4 the licence plate just take some long screws to go into the foam and bend it around thats what i did
Give a boy a gun-give a biatch a cell phone-and pretty soon you almost got yourself a police state.
