Well this month my world kinda turned upside down. My great uncle passed whom was very much a father figure and also the one whom gave me this truck for my first car. I've been busy taking care of things after the death but have had some time to finally get some me time. I always promised him once I got a more faithful motor in the truck I was going to drive it back to his home (about 6 1/2 hour drive) but I never got the chance.

His memorial is this spring and I plan to make it happen for that. He left me some money, so the Toyota is going to get some love in the next couple months.

I've put a budget of around $3K to get what I need to finish the truck. My short condensed list includes

Longfield Axles
Longfield Hub Gears
Longfield Wipers
3 core radiator
2WD oil pan goods for 3rz
Triple Sticks (still deciding on who's to get)
4.7 Gear set for back case
New Cage, more then likely 4xinnovations
Altered Drivelines (again lol)

I'll also be redoing the interior, upgrading the lights and if time allows a paintjob as well.
