hey all. kinda new here. been reading the forums for a while now. I am from fresno. here are some specs on my truck. 1983 toyota short bed p/u. 5" marlin trail flex lift, high cross over, dual ultimate crawler transfer cases, L-52 HD transmission, 4.88 with a detroit in the rear. I am not at all mechanically inclined so all work was done at Marlins shop.

My plans: regear to 5.29 with an ARB up front
complete exo. ( I am actually gonna learn to weld myself)
Chromolly front axles
eventual engine swap ( i want fuel injection)
And I am sure there will be more i want but for now thats a good start

I will post pics as soon as I figure out how to.
