BTW, nice rig BTonka, i guess i missed part of your build up

I haven't really started a build-up thread. One is on the way though. I have been learning many things from WT as well as others. Thanks for the comment!

Nice it's got a snorkle. Which one did he use? The SS65HF safari snorkle for the 84-88 toyota truck?

I do believe that is is a modified Safari snorkel made for a Landcruiser.

That is sweet

I'd love to find one in that shape

6.72:1 · December 03, 2005, 09:35:42 PM

Thanks. It is quite a clean one. It is currently "under the knife" and I am trying to make it even better, so we will see how it turns out! Thanks for the comment!

FATB0Y · December 03, 2005, 10:17:06 PM

Just don't let anyone butcher it up

I was thinking you could strap an old wagon train style tarp over it but sometimes my Ideals are alittle

but I like em

Oh $Beer Chug\'n$ nice truck

snowshoebrue · December 04, 2005, 03:13:31 PM

actually thats the idea. i got a soft tonneau cover for 15 bucks so it will go on the top and then i will make some sides that i can take off when it is dry and put back on when it is wet out.

rockscrambler · December 04, 2005, 03:44:01 PM

great minds think alike. but i got mine free found it in a truck I was sending to the junk yard about 1 1/2 ago

Scott39 · December 05, 2005, 03:08:23 AM

Has anybody put a 3.4 tacoma motor

in one of these yet?

CrazyYota · December 06, 2005, 11:06:04 AM

I got my 83 for $200. It had a blow engine and i had to sell my other 83 long bed to fix the shortbox one.

it came with 33s, 3 inch body lift and the original crome grill.

I think I'm gonna quit being a weeny and do mine this weekend, and maybe actually start messin with the springs and get some lift going. If the weekend is gonna be as nice as I'm hoping then it should be a productive one. Hopefully another pic to post too, as well as a build up thread.

OldschoolJay · December 11, 2005, 04:15:04 PM

here's my 80, 35"krawlers,85 axles/tranny/t case, 5 MGE swap, locked rear, 4:37 gears.
i like it, but am considering swapping a 3rd gen extra cab on it. could use the room, then i will bob the box and frame.

jimbo74 · December 11, 2005, 04:36:43 PM

Lots a stock in there. Yup 82. Got it for 500.00 not running. Since them I've built rebuilt everything. Motor, Marlin 5 speed tranny, dual ultimate. Stock axles and still running 38's in the snow!! The dang thing is unstoppable......Will spinout before sinking. The rear springs are bronco and now I've got 44044 in the front. 35 MTR's on 10" Steel

wsuweston · December 11, 2005, 06:58:03 PM

"The rear springs are bronco"
How do those work out for you? What years bronco and any fabrication needed to mount those? And how is the flex?
Thanks Dave

FATB0Y · December 11, 2005, 09:17:31 PM

I want a 1st gen toy

They are 86 F150 or Bronco. They work good. Since they are very wide, you would have to fab everything to mount them. They had a curl at the front of the spring when I got them and it is curved a littler more now. I have a spring pack off an F250 I am going to swap leaves and try to get it back to the hieght it was.

John Dibble · February 25, 2006, 11:00:25 AM
