I hear yea.. it's pretty annoying when I start drivin and smell the water leakin onto my cat

wet cats usually don't smell bad

[lilbuddy]

you did that without a front d-shaft?  good job

Not to ruin it for her, but I bet she had some help from those boards in front of the back pass tire of the ford 

[whiteman]

The Toymiga is looking great FFC!  So you gonna throw the boggers off the ford on there  .


Keep up the good work

Aaaand Lilbuddy wins!!

I was wondering who would mention it first Yer right, I did need some help from the boards.  I couldn't possibly do it with muddy tires on both vehicles and no front driveshaft

flex's good in the front, the back looks alittle stiff.

Yes the back is very stiff.  I have the stock Amigo springs still, but I have some 4" USA springs lined up I plan on picking up next week Those and some extended shackles should eliminate the blocks and help the flex a bit

[Hyena]

awsome.

[Rocksurfer]

Typical woman loose up front and stiff in the back.

...a little tuck here, a little cut there.

I don't think that the marlin springs are gonna be the right spring for you.  Those are designed for a full bodied toyota truck or 4runner and you amigo weighs alot less than one of those.  We put a set of those on RHGs truck and the pack is like 3.5" thick and has a huge arch to it.  I'd say your better off with some sort of junkyard hybrid spring packs from like a mazda or something.  I maybe search and see what the jeep guys are running. just my

I think it already has Marlin springs on the front, and you can always toss out a leaf or 2 if it is a little light. I don't think it will be a problem, look at all the Toys running around with no beds running them.

[IronClad]

has yota rears on the front of it..  and i think the marlins are gonna be to stiff aswell  id deff go for a nice soft junkyard pack  like some dodge 1/2ton springs.. they are about  50-52" long  and have great flex.

[sloyota]

i got marlins 4" springs front and rear and there pretty soft,then again i got some extra junk in the trunk..i mean tools,parts and spare tire and my fat ass..you would think those springs would work perfect on a toymigo.just wait till they springs settle a little,then it will flex like the macho man randy savage....ooohhhh yyeeeaaahhh.

[*FFC*]

Let's see here, where to start:

As for the Amigo being a LOT lighter than a toyota, that's not true.  You'd be surprised how heavy this thing is.  Hmm, the 4" Marlin springs I'm hoping will make up for the 3" blocks and the very short shackles that I have on the rears.  I think if I have any problems it's gonna be that they aren't tall enough, and I'd either have to lengthen the shackles or lower the front. I am going to give em a shot and see how they look.  Being brand new, they have some settling to do

And yes, they're stock toy rears up front

  i've been checking the build thread but I hav'nt read it till now you've been hiding from me.

[kneedownnate]

but I have some 4" USA springs lined up I plan on picking up next week

Soooooooo........has this deal fallen through.......or have you double checked on it?  If it's what I think it is, some jerk in redding has all that stuff now

I haven't persued it because I had a couple bills come up that I didn't know about But I had emailed the guy last and he never did reply But if he sold them, oh well.  I snoozed, and prolly lost.  BUT they're still in the plan whether I get em from some private party or through Marlin

[kneedownnate]

Well, I'm pretty sure if I...he for some reason doesn't use them in their project then you'd have first dibs, but right now it looks like they'll be used.

I thought there was a catch to that "jerk" statement

Thanks... if push comes to shove I'll pick something up from PnP

Drove the Migo today, and it's developed a new internal sound Anyone know where I can find a 4 cyl Taco motor/trans/case? I have a feeling I'm gonna be needing one either right before or not too long after MCR5

Here's a few pics from my trip to the park today Thought I'd share

I have never seen a Toymiga flex like that!!!   

Looks like you had a lot O-Fun!!

[*FFC*]

Wermy, I had a blast. I haven't been wheelin in months.  I got some of my built up anticipation out today, but I can't wait to get my front driveshaft done so I can go all the way through the rock pile rather than just a few rocks in
