Dang, that makes me feel much better about my level of readiness.
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

Her is a few more. This shows the first problem I had with the upper control arm to frame interferance when cycling the front suspinsion.  I moved the UCB on the diff over 2.5 inches and then all was solved.

Yup Marlin is actually rebuilding the motor right know because I don't have the time to do that also.  I have some more pictures it come along way since those above. My middle name is procrastinate.  Here are some pictures from Today and this is what the shop looks like weeks before the round-up.  Dave C hard at work in his office, see what I have to put up with.  :smack: And the first picture is why I never get anything done, not my daughter but the quad.

very cool that you are putting coilovers on a Toyota axle. I'd imagine that was a task in itself with limited room!

Tell me about it. Hint Hint (come back to me I'm begging you please)I think that was a Paula Abdul song. Those kids can walk to school.  We got the motor completely torn down last night cleaned and ready to go to the machine shop.  Marlin ported and polished the non turbo head for my turbo motor sweeeeet. Cam and the rest of the goodies should be here today.  Need some umph for those 38's. Infernal give me a call, I tried yesterday they said you were at lunch at 4:00. I felt so alone. lol
