surf body onto 4 runner chassis
hi guys just want to know if a 1992 surf body will fit onto 1988 4runner chassis
Tires are like boobs, they always look big until you have played with them for a while, then you just want a bigger set
Re: surf body onto 4 runner chassis
They are pretty much the same size, and type of vehicle, so Id say they would be close.
Double check the body mounting points to see how close.

From memory 4? rear mounts need to be moved a little.
A guy on the Surf site did mods to a beam axle Runner chassis for the same thing.
EDIT: Reece on surf site may have the info you want.

Nat the problem you will have is your 88 is a 2 door and the 92 surf is a 4 door the wheel bases are different so it wont fit... (wheel arches dont line up)Nat84 wrote:hi guys just want to know if a 1992 surf body will fit onto 1988 4runner chassis
try and find a 90 model 2 door and from memory there is only slight mods..but check the wheel bases first
