Thinking about running the 7m. and a rear mounted radiator to help with clearance issues. not sure if that is a good idea on a crawler.

bad ass build. i always liked the idea of a 7m in a 1st gen. im hoping to throw a 7mgte in my 2nd gen here soon..good job building your stuff it looks really good. keep up the good work man.

7mge with a rear mount radiator sounds good too me. My freind has a rear mount radiator in his 22re crawler and as long as you have a electric fan on it and a ground strap on the radiator to prevent electrolisis. The real benifit of a rear mount radiator that I see is you wont have to cut your radiator core support to find a new way to mount the radiator with a 7MGE swap

yotadork83 · « **Reply #44 on:** Jul 24, 2006, 05:03:38 AM »

the 7m is on hold until i can find someone that make a custom ground cams for crawling.

yotadork83 · « **Reply #45 on:** Jul 29, 2006, 10:00:41 PM »

got somthing done on the nija transmission and transfer cases are in had to do some serious cutting in the cab and put a 1.5 inch body lift in so that it would fit ok. pics of the motor with propand set up in. and got a new starter and oil filter.

yotadork83 · « **Reply #51 on:** Sep 04, 2006, 05:50:38 PM »

can you say offset plus dovetail soon.
bed is painted!!!
body lift blocks 1.5.
axle is a little bit far back trying to decide if i am just going to go with the marlin rear kit with piviot blocks.

stoken82 · « **Reply #52 on:** Sep 05, 2006, 09:03:36 PM »

man that looks really good... cant wait to get mine back on the trails

yotadork83 · « **Reply #53 on:** Sep 08, 2006, 06:55:32 PM »

allright i need some input from you guys i have to move my axle forward in the rear and i was thinking that i should just go ahead and get some new springs because i have the money and longer springs couldent hurt. i was thinking on useing marlin rears and making a set of shackels like the ones that they sell at total chaos that mount on top of the frame and building my own johny joint's on the top end of the shackle like all poo's and maybe spring piviot blocks. i dont know how to make a poll but i need some input

DTB · « **Reply #54 on:** Sep 08, 2006, 07:09:34 PM »

is that spring hangar welded on all the way? looks stitched to me... dunno

yotadork83 · « **Reply #55 on:** Sep 08, 2006, 07:22:45 PM »

papa mike · « **Reply #56 on:** Sep 08, 2006, 10:20:00 PM »

MR_DIY · « **Reply #57 on:** Sep 09, 2006, 09:01:38 AM »

cool buildup. I say pass on the pivot blocks up front... don't see aneed for them.

rocktoy83 · « **Reply #58 on:** Sep 09, 2006, 07:51:10 PM »

yotadork83 · « **Reply #59 on:** Sep 22, 2006, 04:42:05 PM »
