Follow-on question here..., have noticed my clutch is seeming a little weak.  What are the replacement options?  Stock or after-market upgrades?  Any direction or recommendations would be appreciated.

Stock Toyota clutches are the best. Get a kit from a vendor or the dealer. But before you do, resolve your tranny choice because you may need to use a different clutch.

Cost/dependability wise, a stock four speed is the best shifting of the bunch, So if ya plan to drive it on the street, watch Scott's plans. Swap the bellhousing and tranny, and with Marlins adapters you can add a mini reduction box (ToyBox).

Flipping your rear springs will add some length, which is always good. My rear shaft is a shorty with only 8" of tube. I went to the mini flanges and ujoints for strength and the angle of operation Plenty strong enough for extreme rock crawling.
