painted it up all snazzy and called her good!



now the problem of the front shaft came about... ran out of money after the rear cv got built so we got creative ( aka cheap... 40$ later)


final product. the seamed tube i got was a lot more work getting it to work. i had to grind a slit in the smaller side
making room for the 14" bilsteins

old versus new

after scratching my head and numerous drawing it all works


gotta protect the diff after bashing it all last summer
after i got it back driveable


so i got bored of the 33s and wanted to be different....


went back to raush again with some buddies a lot more fun dual cases and better meats!






sadly that was the last trip on motor #2 i put in it. lost all power and later found it dropped a valve and all the main bearings were trashed haha but hey i had like 200 bucks in it after i scraped the rest of its donor


looks fast dont it...

used to look mint( that was the atk motor in truck when i origanlly bought it and redid the exchaust and everything


ran some 35s at one trip and oakridge va

put them on my 8" wides the later sold them


camping trip at potts later on



on the way out to my buddies land after a toys for tots event the headgasket blew on the 3rd on i paid 150 and a hp e locker for


so me being me a downward spiral of event happend. i sold my 34s. i bought 37s, seems smart right? then i found a 3rz swap set up but motor had to be rebuild for 450. i was glad be cause it had everything i mean everything all wires cluster evap ac alt starter etc. exhaust pipe jsut no tacoma lol. it had to be bored over becuase cyl4 had water in it so its .030" over now and i should have it back in a week or two. cost me a pretty peny. trying to save some cash i read and read a lot on the wiring and think i got it all right.
