I am getting rid of my 1989 Montero in favor for something a little more user friendly and have decided on a early model 4runner. What is the best thing to look for? Do I want a older 1985 SAS or a IFS? From what I have read I cannot put much of a bigger engine in a SAS. My goal is to have something that I can easily run 33+" tires, easily modified, potential of a v8 conversion, has available accessories, enough power to get me to the ski resort, is plenty 4wd capable or can modified to do it, and would like to have the removable top(but not mandatory). I would appreciate any help/suggestions so I can begin my search.
