Can you believe I actually towed my boat with this? Actually, it was my first truck and it was pretty fun to have! The truck was a 1982 Toyota 4x4 with an 8" lift. It was geared with 5.29's to turn the 36.5" mud tires. The rear end was a Ford 9" with a Detroit Locker. It had a 160 psi air system to control the suspension as well as 3 independent air horns. It had 110 a.c. power and radios covering the 2 meter, 10 meter, and 440 MHz ham bands. It was retired in 2001 after it wouldn't pass smog and I didn't want to put the money into it to fix it. It basically became my "parts runner" truck for 9 years when I got my F-350 in 1993. My tow vehicle from 1990 to 1993 was a V-6 Forerunner with 31's.
