The Ass Handler: 86 4-runner ( I Rolled it!! )

[whiteman]

Alright boy's and girl's, lets start this off with a little bit O' info about the pacient .  I bought it last night 3/31/05 for $500 .  It is an 86 4-runner chassis with a 87 22re motor and a 88 22re head. I has a downy header   and a smashed ass section .  I will post pics tomorrow of the truck posing and maybe with some mud on the tires . This will be a long build but I would hopfully someday have a very capable rig.  Thanks for looking and stay tuned for pics.

[TrackVino]

Yes, Pics are good

[whiteman]

Gal blasted, I am furiuos I can't figure out how too post pics.  I am going over to my cousins house tonight and he should know how. I took some pictures of it's huge flex   and i also stuffed my buddy's 35" boggers on it but they would not fit in the rear.  I will have pics up soon.                          


                                      Yea i know:

Thanks to   :clap2:FATBOY .  I got my pictures up.  86' 4-Runner.  Some mud, some posing, and some test fitting of 35" boggers no lift and my torsion bars are not cranked.

[whiteman]

a lil rough but nice

[whiteman]

But for $500 I cant complain.  The frame is straghit, and the four wheel drive works good.  First thing i need to do is change the altenator, the oil, and put in a cd player.  I would like to gat a spool for the rear but cant find any mini spools.

Y not just weld it? its cheeper

[whiteman]

I thought about it.. ... prloblem is I thought too hard .  Wont that make it weaker, I mean the carrier and spider gears from the heat of the welder,    somthing like crystalize the metal or somthing I dont know    Never done it,  but I will if I am convinced it wont make it weaker.    

[scheid6996]

no its strong ebough, thers a few guys on here who rly kno how to do it right, start a new topic and ask for pics and ideas on how to weld it

[Willy Mammoth]

I bet I can find one in my shed this weekend. Pm me if you are intrested, I will send it to you if you pay the shipping. It has been well tested.

I have seen spools break, never seen a welded carrier break.

I twisted axles with this one and the tractor tires so I know it is srtong.

you are welcome... it is confusing for a newbie and for someone that didn't grow up with a mouse in his hands

I have seen spools break, never seen a welded carrier break.

I have...it was mine 

[mr4x42u]

HA HA,,You have a dent in the only plae I don't..the lower rear 1/4 panel..Hell of a deal for 500..

[WHITE_TRASH]

Go play bumper tag with Kurt again and he'll fix that straight area.....

[mr4x42u]

my bumper is the only reason that sopt is still staight

[No Power]

Chop off the rear and wheel the piss out of it
You don't need no stinkin lift, just a bf hammer and a sawzall really does saw all
Looks like a good buy for the cash
Good luck.

[gturismo]

Excellent score for 500

[UNBREAKABLE]

Thumbs up for $500

[whiteman]

I am trying to weld up the rear.  if you have any tip,s the topic is in the  Engine/drivtrain/supension section.  Thanks.

[whiteman]

Here are some carnage pics from yesterday,  I played ping pong with a tree trying to escape the grasp of a small mud puddle!    
     Passenger fender got smashed and the door was smashed in but I poped a little bit of the dent out.  I had to take a hammer to the fender to get the door to open and close. 

[whiteman]

One more!
