I'm loving this thing! How tall is it to the top of the cage?

80" to the top of the exo. When I redo the rear links I am going to drop it 2"-3" inch's

tic toc

ps did you get the schematic of the rear lube procedure??  :talkingn:

YES. Did you design that procedure  :moon:. I'm thinking you may have.

3rd gear, 5500 rpm with the tires smokin, it should make it out.


It's only an inch taller than before. If it doesn't then I will run the winch under the axles and up to the rear D-Ring and suck it down.

The 4Runner worked great for 30 min. Got half way up Sledge Hammer and blew three seals out of the hydro ram on the first day.

why you keep blowing seals?

to much presure?   what kind of ram/valving did you go with?

I think its just a POS ram. This is the first time Ive used it. It blew in 30 minutes going straight. I bought the ram and orbital from Rock Equipment. I'm going to give them a call some time this week and get a new one. My buddy ran the same setup all week with no problems. I'm dieing to try out all the new junk on my truck.

i've got a spencer, seems okay... I blow seals alot but its a very slow leak so I dont worry about it to much.

good luck, love seeing the work done on the rig. It's definently one of a kind...

Sorry to hear about the Hammers run.  :sad2: I take it this pic is from the 3rd rebuild?

Any chance you have any pics of the work you did to bob the body behind the seats?

Its a Rock Equipment ram. I picked up the new one today.

I know that you don't know me, but I was going to beat the hell out of it like I always do. New paint/axle or what ever I don't care. I'm out for a good time.

Yes it does suck. Unfortunately I don't document the builds very well. I will look around to see if I have any.
