Well my bro traded his 4runner already. He was going to swap running gears but ended up trading for some toyota truck thing. Here's some pics when we got it home. It came with an extra cab on the back and we took it with the truck. anyone want it? It came comeplete with a 22re-i believe a w56? 5 speed- dual toy cases w/ 4.0 in the rear case. 4.10 thirds with an ifs rear. the springs are stock but some drop spring hanger thing. see


The rest of the parts were another rear axle shaved with discs, 3" spacers or something for the front. brand new 5" trail gear springs, trail gear dual crossmember. 5.29's front and rear, arb front, spool rear, brand new longs and chromo inners, arb compressor, a couple driveshafts, and some lame ass 35's. here's some pics of the truck as it sit right now with some rollers on it

So far all thats been done was thats I installed the dual cases and the crossmember. We used trail gears dual case crossmember. I'm not sure that I like it though. We'll see what happens. I might just make something. The plans have changed again. he'll be putting toy rears front and 52" chevy springs rear but will be selling all the toy 5.29 arb & spool diffs, longs, 5" trail gear springs, rear housing thats been shaved, front axle rebuild kit w/ bearing, new marlin seals, vented rotors, arb compressor and what ever else I missed. He'll be getting the sky's fullwidth kit and swapping 1 ton drivetrian in it. anybody interested in this shtuff

here's some pics of the rear. I installed some 52" chevy springs in the stock location to get about another 5" of wheelbase. Still need to install some 2" blocks and it should be alright until we link the back. those c channel shackles are on there until I make some other ones. I bought it with the bling shackes at no extra cost   :greengrin:

hopefully i'll have my thirds and the longs sold soon so I can pick up some one tons. I've never had a truck this small before. It looks retarded with rollers on it.

did you pick this thing up in Modesto CA?? I swear I saw that thing on a truck over by the 99 hwy...I passed him and he pulled into a gas station.

Lizard_lips

I picked it up in oroville. drove down the 99 going back to vegas. it was a long trip. I stopped in medesto to drop off some chevy springs and stuff.

Lizard_lips

Yeah I was there. I belive I saw your toy drive by. well maybe I saw some guy drive by with a marlin sticker but I can't remember what it looked like. you shoulda stopped. We don't throw sticks or anything at people.

Did a little work yesterday. Took the dash out of the other cab to install part of it in this one.

I need to cut some holes for the ac lines because the truck doesn't have any on it. I also cut the floor and installed the shifters for the dual cases.

I also upgraded to some bigger rollers  :greengrin: pimpin the 33's haha ::)

Did a little bit to the truck again. I put some block in the back and a longer brake line. I tried to drive it with the driveshaft on since I made that work now and the truck wouldn't. I think it's a fuel thanks for the help gtoyonrocks

I have a fuel pump I can put inline. does anyone know if this will work?

Duffil

what pump do you plan on using? it has to meet the pressure and GPH of the OEM pump.

Lizard_lips

not sure if it's the pump I had another one and I don't think the pump is getting and juice. it runs nice spraying some gas down the intake though.

It still sounds like a sewing machine compared to my old 350

I'll be dropping off the cab on the bad at the scrap yard unless someone wants it. just take it away i need it gone by this weekend. then I'll be testing the flex and probably gonna weld the diffs and see how much I can wheel. anyone have a spare driveshaft for dual cases they want to sell?

Haven't had much progress lately. I took the cab down to the recycling place. got $18 for it.  :greengrin: put some fluid in the cases. drove it around. still need to make some front springs. I got some center bolts for them. I'll be picking up some fullwidth axles here probably this weekend and then swapping them under. here's some pics. I'm not sure of the wheel base. it should be about 115 or so I'll have to measure

my bro picked up some axles for it today. He went with a ford 9" rear and actually a 10 bolt up front. since he couldn't find any 1 ton axles and he wanted to get his rig done. the axles have 5.13's hysteer front, locked front and rear. gonna be swaping them in either today or tomorrow hopefully.
