2) Can you recommend any good websites/magazines/races(i live on the east coast so it may not be feasible) that can illustrate what i need----i need ideas on how to mount the fenders and hood so as to make them quick-release so as to fascilitate easy engine access.

3) Does anyone know of any companies that sell bolt-in roll bars/ cages for the 73-87 series trucks? Yes, i know bolt in is not as good as weld in, but i'll explain later......
1) Technically... a pre-runner is a vehicle used to pre-run (hence the name) a track prior to the racing event so that the drivers get a chance to see the coarse. A lot of times the pre-runner is a truck prepared close to the race vehicle specs so that it performs similarly over the same terrain.
Now the term is used to describe any "lifted" 2wd....

2) You might google search prerunner forum and search/read them. I used to be a member of a handful, but have not been to them in awhile. All the events are on the west coast (California, Arizona, Mexico, Nevada, etc)... I did find some races in NC, WI, and MI.. they are more "stadium trucks" races than desert Baja type with a stock 2wd truck class..

As far as quick-release... http://www.magnumforceracing.com/quick_release.asp

3) Nope...but never had a reason to look either.
