It’s come to the point where the only trucks I like anymore are leveled tow rigs with a small wheel larger tire set up, and Prerunner off-road builds! Not a fan of show trucks!
Agreed. Personally I don’t want a leveled tow rig because having the back up a couple inches is nice because with a trailer on it it will be leveled out
I’ve owned a prerunner. Their tons of fun to drive and play with but are a pain to maintain and will hurt your bank account! Defiantly the most expensive type of truck to build
The newest craze now is Prelanders. People are taking Chevy Suburban’s and Tahoe’s and putting Prerunner suspensions and Overlanding interiors in them. There’s talk of a Alaska to South America endurance race now.
That sounds like the American version of the Dakar. And I mean the OG Dakar, which ran from Paris, France, to Dakar, Senegal, all across the mighty Sahara. It'd be epic for sure!
What made them different the size cuz? Where they blue? The biggest thers probably outthere are Robby Gordon shocks but not many people will have them because there very expensive and you can't even buy them you had to lease them for about 7k a PEACE but the good thing about those coil overs is that you have your bypass built inside the shock 2 in 1 and those are probably the size of a basketball in diameter so I'm pretty sure you saw a typical fox or king shock
I have a 07 Sierra with a mazzulla LT front and deaver spring under kit out back. You’ll have way more that 10k in the suspension. Probably more like 8k just in shocks. And all that doesn’t count lights, hubs, rear axle, roll cage, bumpers, fenders, wheels tires and on and on. Around 30k in parts as a good number if you’re doing all the work yourself. I’ve built mine over about 5 years. They’re fun though
I currently have an M6 2018 tacoma i plan on building once i finish paying it off, its slow as all get out but even as it sits it eats bumps up pretty well and is fun to send off road.
My want for a prerunner is why I bought my 2019 tacoma. And I have already made a list of parts and found where to purchase said parts, now to be able to afford it is my next step.
I have a 10th gen 2WD F150 and an old carburated 460 Big Block that I have Prerunner plans for. And the E350 Econoline RV I got the 460 from also has Ford's very heavy duty Twin I-Beam suspension that I plan to modify and use it as a base for the front end long travel. The rear long travel kit, axle, shock package, and of course, the mandatory 6 wheels and tires are probably the only truly expensive things I will have to buy. And some companies have far cheaper, pre-fabricated, weld it yourself kits. But yeah, once the 460 is in there, probably going to enjoy some on road shenanigans for a month or two before cutting everything from the firewall forward and from the cab back, off, tube frame and cage everything. Because Racecar!
I already have my own prerunner. It’s a 93 ranger supercab 2wd with fiberglass fenders and bedsides, camburg 4.5” over front beam kit, 15” kmc enduros, 2.5 reservoir shocks all around, bed cage, deaver leaf packs, 14” travel front, and 18” travel rear.
I’m building a prerunner in Colorado also. 2014 f150 supercab longbed 4x4 rear locker 62,000 ecoboost. Drove it out from Ohio. Where I bought it, came with a Leer topper and Thule cross bars. I bought Goodyear all terrain adventure with Kevlar to drive it across America. The highway tread that was on them wasn’t going to make it out of the Midwest.
Definitely on point with function. When I buy a vehicle, there needs to be a function for it. When I look at a prerunner, its not just about having fun racing across desert/offroad with speed, but it also serves as a learning tool and the customization that goes when building the vehicle for a particular purpose. Takes the built not bought to the level it was meant too.
Im a minor prerunner, 2.5 coilovers and rear shocks, skid plate bumper, custom rear leafs with longer shackes, 13inch stroke rear shocks on 35s. With 400watts of hid. Its my work truck for the oilpatch roads. Dont need long travel yet but have jumped the truck on crossroads. I have it sitting close to stock height so most of my travel is downtravel truck is great for what its built for but id love to throw a 6 inch over front kit with a widened 9.75 to match and be pulling 16 inches up front with a bed cage so i could get full use of my leafs and extended hangars. Only thing that sucks is trying to change a tire if jacking from the frame with the 35s and so much droop i have to use blocks with any of my jacks. A mild prerunner build is nearly the perfect work truck setup for me
I've owned my 06 Tacoma prerunner 6y. Before that I didn't actually know what prerunning (if you will) was. Always loved these trucks, makes me want to build mine up, but zero time, limited funds, and no place to take it.
2015 tundra running total chaos race kit with 2.5 king coil-overs and bypass. Getting dirt king long travel bed cage and deaver spring under for the rear. It’s expensive af but if you love it🥰
I’m personally more into rock crawling because I’m near PA and WV but I’ve always thought a prerunner would just be so much fun on an open desert that you can go wherever instead of following trails. I like ultra 4 cars the best because they’re kind of a mix in a sense but definitely don’t have the loot for one.
At the moment I have more of a how I would call "light" prerunner biuld. 1st gen Tacoma prerunner with 2.5 inch lift with camburg upper control arms on 33s, with ICON suspension. The dream is to make it a full prerunner, probably going to do a total chaos long travel kit, and do a long travel rear conversion. And then put on the TRD supercharger with an exhaust and intake. I'm going to try and push for 300 at most, but for what I do now which is just daily driving to school and work, and occasionally hitting some fire roads and light 4x4 trails hauling mountainbikes and dirtbikes and stuff it isn't bad.
Love the look but I’m in the northeast and can’t think of anywhere I’d run it & the cost is insane to me but if I had money to blow I would absolutely do it
I've owned a couple prerunners and currently have one. Are they worth it? Yes and no. No because daily driving them can suck. Horrible gas mileage, tires and maintenance is expensive, hard to park in small spaces. But on the other hand they look badass, pot holes and speed bumps become a thing of the past. Also not to mention you can be driving them on the road, pull off to mob in the dirt and then jump back on the road.
Raced Baja and some of the other races back in the 80s love the PreRunner and my desert race trucks we also love buildings off-the-wall prerunners Crown Vic LTD. Trucks and cars from the 30s and 40s. Got to like cool desert race trucks and prerunners like your videos
That’s actually true about pre running and mapping the course before races like Baja, BUT pre runners are actually 4wd in case you come across an unknown silt bed, deep or soft sand, etc. and yes MOST of us that go out and rip the desert on a weekly basis run mud terrains mostly do to the fact they give better grip and traction in the dirt
Late comment..but I'm from socal, 30min from glamis. BRAWLEY, CA and moved to Sacramento area..the closest I can get to desert that I've discovered is nevada areas past reno
Short answer, I don't get to live anywhere near the most awesome sport of desert racing so I don't get to have one. However, longer answer, I do want and am working on a prerunner inspired multi terrain vehicle based on a G20 foundation.
I want to build a prerunner tacoma after i finish my gs300 2jz drift car build. A 2jz-geT with a bmw zf 5spd in a gen2 taco crew cab full 18" capable suspension on 22x12s would be so badass n it has to be able to fly thru the air
Lmfao you guys used my truck at 5:05 -- that was when it was still mild, added a race kit up front. More videos on my channel, truck has since been sold and now I'm rocking a Caged + Linked Raptor.
My dream prerunner build is a Powerstroke f250 with the tremor package. Am I going to be ripping my f250 like Ken block absolutely not but I want something completely different unique and different from everyone else with massive lift kits a 26” American forces. Unfortunately I can’t find any serious pre runner suspension kits for the f250 like the f150 raptors apart from the Carli 5.5” dominator series. Anyone got any tips for where I can get a proper long travel style suspension kit for a 2020 f250 or am I gonna have to get one custom built for a shit ton of cash
The full size trucks where right there when it all started they didnt come later like you mention yeah the Ford ranger and F150 have been a well proven platform that's why there the most built and most popular truck to build
I'd love to build a prerunner but I don't have the money or the knowledge (but I'm willing to learn lol) but can't buy the parts to learn without money 🤣🙄
If I have a Coyote Engine/Trans and a 2wd OBS F-250. What can I expect to pay to get a daily driving Pre Runner? My truck is a western rust free truck, and my running gear is from a 2020 Mustang. EDIT: To be more descriptive, build a better than average suspension, and make the truck run. Hence build off the stock engine/trans platform in the future as my budget allows. I want a daily driver where I can care less, and basically drive around with impunity.
There’s plenty of 4wd long travel kits but you might blow through more cv boots and they don’t allow for as much travel as a lot of race kits are for 2wd trucks more make you eliminate your 4wd

Show trucks aren't something I like. I want function. Work or play.... or both. Most show trucks dont do either well
Show trucks are just life style vehicles. They want to associated with the lifestyle, but don't want to actually to take part in it.
Same here. I own a F250, Tacoma and tundra but no desert truck yet. I am In the process of turning my tundra into a desert machine!
most agreeable thing i’ve seen today!
I’ve been dreaming of owning a prerunner for years!! Well finally got the money and time to start my dream build!
time to fully send itttt
Congrats. Jealous af
Yo good luck! Hope to make one to someday.
Hell yeah brother enjoy!
Go for it brotha

I would tune in to watch that race!
I like it...
That sounds like the American version of the Dakar. And I mean the OG Dakar, which ran from Paris, France, to Dakar, Senegal, all across the mighty Sahara. It'd be epic for sure!
It's physically impossible the geography would prohibit it entirely especially closer to the eqautor
Prerunners are where it’s at!
Frrrr!
I seen one prerunner build here in Vegas... Man the suspension was so big its coilovers were different. The shocks were HUGE it was definitely insane
I’m in Vegas ✌️

😁
I’ve wanted one for the last 20 years
I’m with you…regardless of the truck all pre runners are siiiiiick
If you got to grow up riding Moto. Prerunners are the next step. Don’t go for the prerunner look. Just build a prerunner
What do you mean by look vs the real thing? What is needed for a real prerunner?
@@alexv5537 Long travel mainly
@@danielwolf69 what would be a fake prerunner. Or “just the look”?
@@alexv5537 Long travel would make it a prerunner imo. The look would be just a lift and wheels/tires. Basically it’s gotta be capable of prerunning!
I have a 07 Sierra with a mazzulla LT front and deaver spring under kit out back. You’ll have way more that 10k in the suspension. Probably more like 8k just in shocks. And all that doesn’t count lights, hubs, rear axle, roll cage, bumpers, fenders, wheels tires and on and on. Around 30k in parts as a good number if you’re doing all the work yourself. I’ve built mine over about 5 years. They’re fun though
Same. I have about 20K in my tacoma and it's not all that, it needs shock tuning. Then cage, links, never ends
Easily. My Blitzkrieg kit and fox coilovers alone were 9k.
Definitely not for impatient people and not for the faint of heart
@@jeremiahcrutcher yep, all day. Prices have gone up a lot too. I just bought new bumps front and rear. $3500
I currently have an M6 2018 tacoma i plan on building once i finish paying it off, its slow as all get out but even as it sits it eats bumps up pretty well and is fun to send off road.
You can see the lack of experience when he’s talking about prerunners. Cool we get some attention but there’s a lot of silly Info lol.

I got one, broke it, and now it’s snowballing into something that’s been sitting for 3 years now it’ll be worth it when it’s done 🤟🏻
That's how all projects go 😂😂
I would use mine as a winter truck mostly, light enough to get over the snow, plenty of traction and plenty of fun.
