oh yeah bling bling shizz isnt my thing either, if i owned that sammy all I would do is build some yota axles, stuff them with 4.88's spool the rear aussie up front and some longs and a set of 6:1's in the tcase and some sliders and that sammy would scream. But I know from your yota you owned you weren't into elaborate builds, I liked looking at your club pictures and seeing you do the same stuff as all those built arse rigs in an almost stocker.

I already have a Klune-V 4:1 and it is slow go, imagine 6:1's in the t-case with the 4:1's in the Klune. I have already found that even with a 4:1 that it goes slow enough to give me problems trying to climb over some obstacles. What I do is shift my t-case into hi range and leave the 4:1 engaged which is still much lower than stock but gives me enough momentum to get over them. I only have a rear locker at the moment and everytime I get stuck a friend of mine yells "front locker" he may be right in the ultra low range but what I do at that point is back off and shift my t-case into hi range and hit the obstacle with a little more momentum. A few club members have suggested I change my screen name to momentum man when I was wheeling my Toyota, I guess they'd be right since my motto is keep going until all 4 wheels are digging holes or I'm on my lid. The whole reason I even got this little bug was for the Klune.


So when is the 3RZ going in? :eyebrow:


Don't think that hasn't crossed my mind, if there is anything lacking in these things it is some decent power the last 2 runs I went on I drove it there and back, sucks going 45mph everywhere. On the way home from Big Bear last week I even took some backroads home so as not to get in the way. A couple good friends of mine who are experts in them (even Cal-mini refers people to them) have some ideas for me so we will see what happens down the road with it.

You must now erase any mention or evidence that the samurai ever existed...
IFS is best kept at ambient temperature in a pile of scrap in the backyard.  When kept under a functioning vehicle, it tends to greatly diminish said vehicle's offroad ability.     -reklund5

If someone calls me on some :bull crap: I am spewing down the road I can back it up with "really I believe I have owned 3 now and they were all crap!"
