it does look fun, but from the cruiser pic it kinda looked like an old camaro missing the headlights.  i just recently picked up an 86 rx7 for cheap that would be perfect for that

sweet derby car.  :beerchug:

I guess since you seem like you've had enough of 4runners in terms of projects, then go with the FJ. Its something different.

build the yellow muscle car in the background, and we need to see more pics of that one


hahahaha :rofl2: :rofl: Sorry, I just couldn't resist. I actually figured it was a muscle car too, but I was too busy wondering if mrsgotrocks was going to help out with the FJ build :clap: :rofl2:

the 4runner is officially being parted out.  The engine is already gone.  I'll start a thread in the sale section.

I don't think I am going to build the cruiser immediatly but it will get built over time.  My current plans now for it are.

-My built 4Runner axles
-37 toyo's
-sprung over
-AGR Ram assist Saginaw conversion
-stock 6 cyl with TBI conversion
-SM420
-either a Dana 300 or Atlas

The only part I don't have is the transfercase.  So thankfully I won't need to break the bank.  But I kinda just did drain it since I bought a 26' Gooseneck trailer yesterday so I gotta refill up the bank account.  So go check out my sale thread.

I vote you finish my runner then we can talk about me not voting in time to save the 4Runner.  I don't think you would survive getting rid of the FJ so you probably made the right choice, plus it will take up less room in the shop so you can work on other stuff as well.
1989 4Runner: Dual Ultimate (Inchworm front & Marlin 4.70 rear), Marlin Twin Stick, 1200-lb clutch, 4.88 R&P, Aussie Front, Detroit rear, 30-spline Longs, Long hub gears, ARP hub and knuckle studs & 35x12.50 Cooper STT PRO tires.  Marlin rear bumper & sliders.  FROR front bumper.  SAS with Alcan springs & Rancho 9000XL shocks.  Budbuilt Bolt-on traction bar.  Custom Interior Cage by Those Guys Rod and Customs.

SM420 is so old school. Go with a stock 4 speed and Toybox mated to a FJ60 t-case.
If you would like to help save the Rubicon, send money to the Rubicon Trail Foundation
