When it comes to building a Toyota 4x4 for extreme terrain, All-Pro Off Road is the premier shop in the country. Famous for their straight axle conversion kits for independent suspension pickups, All Pro also offers many other parts and services for the pickup and Land Cruiser owner.

The owner of All-Pro, Jon Bundrant, has built a 1987 4Runner that showcases just about everything All Pro offers. Jon is into backcountry exploring and "hanging it out" on some of the toughest trails in North America, so, besides wanting his

Toyota to showcase his wares, he wanted it to perform well, too.

His 1987 4Runner came with the trusty 22RE fuel injected 4-cylinder engine, which Jon elected to leave alone. He changed out the stock transmission for a five-speed tranny out of a turbo pickup, which is quite a bit stronger with a little lower gear ratios. To really make the truck work on the trail, an ultimate Marlin Crawler dual transfer case system was installed that, along with the 4.88 gears in the differentials, gives the 4Runner a 223:1 crawl ratio!
