[toyotanner]

cool man... i found one on craigslist today w/ an rv cam no intake or exhaust for 250 but the guy was in the process of selling when i called

[TIMS89CRAWLER]

ya it usually works that way with toyota stuff on craigslist around here 

[coods]

  let me know if you need the picker and we can get that motor pulled

[toyotanner]

well either way it needs to come out so bring it over tomorrow

[coods]

dam that means i have to unhook the trailer.  just to load back up for this weekend

[toyotanner]

[coods]

 8) i can drop it off tomo but wont be able to help for that long.  wensday i have nothing planned

[toyotanner]

it probably wont take me much more than like 2 hours to get that motor out by myself anyways...

[coods]

 

[toyotanner]

it was so pretty then 

[toyotanner]

Found some more pics from wheeling at goat about a month ago

[toyman80]

that last pic looks like browns camp. archer firebreak 5 maybe?

[toyotanner]

no its all Estacada Goat Mountain

[toyotanner]

the post that coods left about 5 posts up was mini rubicon on firebreak five though

[smokeater87]

you can do as many as you got room for, theer is a pic somewhere of marlins shop building 10 cases
not in a truck of course, on the bench. but they did. ask big mike for pics!

So would you just need 3 cases and 2 of the marlin dual adapters???Or is there a different adapter for tripple cases?

[toyotanner]

yeah 3 cases 2 adapters

[smokeater87]

Wow that would be cool.If i can get the driveline angles right i might just do that.Didnt you have trouble with your angles when you did the flatbelly with dual cases?

[toyotanner]

yeah i had to put 10 degree shims on the rear axle for the driveline to work

[toyotanner]

YAY!!!!! i got a motor from a buddy today for 100 bucks its a score for sure. so hopefully this week i will be swapping the new motor in and putting all my stuff on it and putting the L52 and attaching the duals to that.

[GrenadedToy]

who did you get a motor from?

[toyotanner]

Tim he drives a 4runner

[toyotanner]

sooooo.... got some pics for everyone...

this is what was left of my #2 rod bearing

This is the new motor w/ all my stuff on it

This is my new tranny and whats gonna be my rear case

with the room i had with the motor out i decided to gusset my shock towers and plate my frame for 1 of my steering box bolts

[toyotanner]

oh and i got the motor in and started seems like its gonna be a good runner.

[TIMS89CRAWLER]

good so you better be up at browns wheelin with us on march 6-8 we got a grip of rigs coming up to tear some up!

[toyotanner]

yeah more than likely i will be down to go... march is pretty early though might be to much snow still

[TIMS89CRAWLER]

ya guess we will see... there is quite a few rigs going from down this way though so it should be a good time! hope you can make it and drag some buddies with ya too!

[GrenadedToy]

[toyotanner]

Driveline welds

New driveline alot thicker material too

new motor in its new home

[toyotanner]

checklist before i can wheel it again :
* clearance xmember for front driveline
* fix motor oil leak ( i think its the front main)
* gear oil in trans and cases
* buy and install 2 knuckle studs

Things i want to try to do soon...
* bob and dovetail the bed have some ideas on ways to do it
* get my trans tunnel and floor piece bent up and welded in

parts i have that i should probably install sometime...
*knuckle ball gussets
*skyjacker extended front brake lines
*upper axle gusset


OH man and my tags are up this month so i have to put a cat on it and take it through DEQ

[TIMS89CRAWLER]
