82 4WD Buildup

[awhotrods]

Here are some pics of my project, already did all the suspension and crossover steering, but got pics of the drivetrain work
This is my original 22R and my new (but used) 22RE.  I had to pull the oil pickup tube and solid axle pan, and put them on the new engine.

pic of the 22RE + resurfaced flywheel.  I pulled the fuel rail and all the injectors, replaced all the seals and o-rings.  They were looking a little dry, and it would be alot easier on the ground than up in the truck.  I also cleaned the injector tips so it should run pretty smooth!

gotta love a marlin built L52 tranny and 1600lb clutch, ps: thanks guywithuglyyota

Nice looking truck you got there.  Some badd arse parts going into it too.

[oddball]

very bling, kinda liked the tan though

[awhotrods]

here is the motor, tranny, and dual ultimate (thanks for your help midgetmike  ) getting ready to meet up

I put the whole drivtrain in at once, its alot easier than messing with stuff underneath

[awhotrods]

thanks for the compliments, been busting my ass on this thing   Here is a pic as the new motor is goin in

Just finsihed the floorboards today, scraped all the stock tar sh*t off, (what a pain in the  )  Then I sanded the floor with 80 grit, and put a couple thick coats of the duplicolor bedliner stuff from kragen, turned out pretty nice

[awhotrods]

I installed a set of autometer gauges too, oil/water temp/volts and a tach on the a-pillar

[awhotrods]

here is the tach on the a-pillar

pic of my new bilsteins (12")  and IFS rear

[awhotrods]

I found these cool LED taillights on ebay, going to incorporate them into the new flatbed I'm going to  build in a couple weeks

[awhotrods]

here is a rear pic of my rig, just switched from 38" tsl's to 37" MTR's, I'm going to drive this thing to the con, so the TSL's wouldn't last more than a couple months    Anyone have any cool pics or ideas for a flatbed?  I'm thinking about this one..

[oddball]

nice, guages and liner came out good, good luck wiring the motor

WOW  Im impressed, you definately have been busy with that thing. I like how you have really paid attention to detail. Glad to see the trans going into a good home! Did you rotate your rear axle at all for pinion angle???  Im about to throw in Marlins rear suspension kit, and was curious if its necessary to do. Keep up the good work!

That truck looks great. Doing some awesome work.

I used 4" lift 56" long springs with 2.5" blocks and shackles, the blocks have a taper to them and the pinion angle is perfect.  I didn't have to move the perches at all.  Thanks again for the tranny
