Re: 87 4Runner in CO--super-slow build
« Reply #30 on: Dec 04, 2009, 10:47:27 PM »
Been checking on parts for a dual set-up; here's the list so far:
2 cases, forward to top shift conversions if needed
4.7s with 23 splines all around
MC 07 (why is the MC 08 $300 more?)
crossmember
driveshaft work
busted knuckles and lost bolts.

Can I run 4.7s in both cases or is that just too low or a waste of gears and time? I figured out I'll have to chop the floor for this, modification is my middle name. I'm sure a ton of my questions will be answered once I actually get parts; I'm a physical kind of thinker, I need to have the stuff in front of me to figure it out. Since there's a bunch of late-model Toys at the yard, can two forward-shift cases be used as duals? I'm guessing yes but with a top-shift conversion deal.

There is a thread on pirate about converting a topshift without the conversion kit. 4.7 in both is a waste, plus that gearing in the front will lead to a snapped input. There is a MC07 on sale in the denver craigslist from matt who was at CO4RJ in the orange hoodie, listing is on here too. I suggest buddbuilt for the crossmember or build your own
Colorado...its where the cool kids live
