[BLACKDOG]

[TurtleTappers91]

I wish it was a 2jz but its only a 7mgte, Umm what else im gonna be running the r150 via a custom bellhousing that should be here anyday, custom intercooler piping and a turbo xs rfl blow off valve, i haven't decided for lockers yet but I want arb or elocker for front and an aussie in the back.
v6 4.56 gears...I found a good box im gonna go pick up next week, (rust free boxs are really hard to find in canada) I haven't decided yet but im pretty sure im gonna bobb it about a foot. Ya and some tube sliders and bumpers and a winch, thats the plan for now....This week is tcase building time.

  Truck is looking way cool.  I dig that paint job as well.  Are you going to leave it that way?  You don't see to many like that anymore.

[rednk1980]

Bring on the 1st Gen Furry Round headlights is where its at! Im liking this already.

[YotaYota]

Im in love w/ that paint job !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[DanS]

I am defiantly going to follow this build, it's good to see a planned approach to a build and you must live alone because many a wife would not allow parts in the house.  DanS

I'll deffinetly keep the stock paint, the paint on the cab is still good, all original, but the box
was re done and was rusting out again which is why im getting a new one.

im 20 years old and live at home and suprisingly my mom didn't put up a stink about the parts
in my room, I also have my 5 iroks standing up in my room hehe its stinks like rubber and
I love it!

[ben_teq]

Well I picked up a rust free box this morning and Im gonna bob it the only problem is im not
sure how much I should take off anyone have pictures and roughly what was removed on 1st gen trucks?

[ben_teq]

Well after waiting a long time on my bellhousing it finally came I i was aible to put some hours in on the truck along with the help of "fj-rankenstein" we got the drivetrain mounted, next task is the floor which will be done very similar to "extend-a-toy". And no thats not my official cross member it was used to hold the tcase in place.

Looking bad 

I like your rear diff armor  but how are you going to check the diff oil since you covered the fill plug

Were do you see the round headlights 

[dizzydevil]

that is a sweet rig... i have been watching the "extend a toy" thread and it's sweet as well, looks like you guys north of the border are building some nice rigs!!!

[83LotsOfun]

Very Cool!!! I like it.  What I like most is that your in Sask.  When you get er done point it west and we will go for a shakedown run.  Keep on keepin on.

Cheers

MCR08 see you there

[ben_teq]

Well a few more things I got motor mounts done, t case cross member done and the floor hacked apart some more this coming week I hope to finish the driver side rocker panel. The plan is to put a simple 4" flat bar backing plate on the inside of the rocker and build off of that.

[Steve97TJ]

I had a free 7mg and everyone told me not to waste my time because i couldnt get it in my 82, and look right after i got rid of it you put one in yours....
