But why is it that EVERY mini parts site i get on looking for parts like (SD, FBI etc) the Sdime parts dominate the site. I can hardly find anything that fits or was made directly for a Toyota PU. I think that Toyotas are hot on the mini scene i mean am i just thinking that because i drive one or what? Am i just looking at the wrong sites? I am all about making something custom for my truck but it would be nice to have a 4link that was designed with my truck in mind. Am i just being a winey bitch because its monday?

simply because:

s10s are to minitruckin as civics are to tuning.

how much does a 2000 tacoma blue book for? 6675.
now how much does a 2000 s10 blue book for. 4,750

thats why. 2 grand difference. s10s are cheaper so of course that gives you 2000 dollars to use to customize it.

B/c they are a business and want to make money. There is probably 10 s10's for every one of your toyota p/u at a show. Its all about the money.

Why couldnt a company design one or two different styles for a yota and just not focus on mass production? There could be a disclaimer that the certain parts may be delayed due to limited avalibility. I mean a already pre fitted four link would be nice. Or anything for that matter. No one says this company has to build an assembly line and start producing 1924780971 of them. Just offer the product is all
