Nope, right now I am saving up some $$ for my summer project

Big Mike:  I almost have enough saved for one of your Dad's W56c's or W56d's and I will get it out on the trails.  The 5.71:1 diffs are way too low and will have to go to 5.29's or 4.88's after the transmission is done.

You are so right about being happy with the 3RZ.  I can actually pull into traffic now without having to wait for a big hole to open up.  I am getting about the same gas milage as the stock 1.6L but with MUCH more power.  The 2RZ radiator and electric fan are keeping it cool no problem.    The stock fuel pump (33-40psi) is working great with no cutout during hard acceleration.  When I think about down shifting I just give it a little more gas and it picks right up.  This is the best upgrade to the truck yet.  Having an engine made in Tennessee is priceless.

1991 Daihatsu Rocky, 3RZ-fe, Marlin super heavey duty clutch and pressure plate, Marlin W56-C-HD, duals, Marlin twinstick, three link front with Fox AirShox, 35's, Toy axles, 5.29:1, ARB F&R etc.
