[Ramrod]

[Ramrod]

[pumkin toy]

that winch mount looks great!  i want to redesign the front of my truck so the winch doesnt stick out so far.

[rockwalker]

got the steering shaft in had to make a new one that wasn't so big, the old one was hitting the shock hood and wouldn't bolt to the box.  its good to go now, also got some parts from ballistic to finish up panhard.

[rockwalker]

panhard in, got some new belts for the motor, cut the top and put it on to see if it was right length. looks sick just need to fiberglass it up and make new windows.  going to order up a sway bar for the rear.   

[pumkin toy]

we need some more pics!

[Doof]

can you get pics of the top how you bobbed it? also inside pics if you feel like it


i want to do the same thing next summer so info would be tits

[Ramrod]

right now its just cut not put back together, he just cut it with a standard skillsaw with wood blade

[Doof]

anything special about how your going to glue it back together?


i was thinking about bolting a piece of sheet metal to stick both sides back together and then fiberglass the top, then remove the strip and fiberglass that also or just leave the strip for strength...a buddy did that to his campersheel and it came out really nice

[Ramrod]

I dont know, probably just glass it up, maybe a couple layers on the inside and one on the outside so it stays nice and smooth

[Ramrod]

a pic from last night, I drug it out of the shop with my taco-

[John Doe]

[rockwalker]

[Ramrod]

did you go out there today? I was too hungover all day

[rockwalker]

i got 2" spacers put on on the front

[LilChief87]

damn looking good man wicked runner

[kiyul4130]

its really nice seeing you have what you want/use to have again. looks just like old one pretty much. i couldnt believe seeing it completely crushed the day after we wheeled a few years back.

edit: does your gf have any hot friends up here? put in some good words.

[rockwalker]

o there are some good ones, will do.   This one will have a exo for that reason

[bigarms23]

that 4runner looks great nice bob

[kiyul4130]

o there are some good ones, will do.   This one will have a exo for that reason

i want to come back down there and hang for the weekend sometime. maybe in a few weeks.

[Sluice Box Hero]

Exos are a good idea if you don't want a tin can in a year. It's going to be fun with everyones rigs being to haul ass this year. You going to Koh?

[rockwalker]

i tried to start my runner tonight for the first time, its not getting any power to the fuel pump so we tried to jump it with a wire and that got the pump to work but no start.  I want to go to KOH for sure. 

[Steve_925]

it was turning over, but wouldnt start? when you turn the key can you hear the EFI relay? also check the grounds. when i went to start mine it wouldnt start. there was a small gound wire next to the dual coil packs that wasnt bolted to the engine. that thing looks sick though. i like the bob and how little of the winch sticks out

[Ramrod]

having a little trouble getting this thing to fire up, doesnt seem like its getting any power, gonna try a new circut opening relay today, here are a couple of questionable plugs on the harness, one is by the battery and the others are for the automatic but could be giving us trouble


 
let us know if you have any idea of what to do with these
