TWISTEDTOYS 92 SAS-->***7MGTE/R151F SWAP and FJZ80's in the works***

[twistedtoy92]

me too... need to pick out a name for the new build......

[sloyota]

that sucks dude,glad your alright..theres still a couple good parts left on your truck,i hope you killed that other car.
its time to build a nice front bumper..

[THK Matt]

The Wrecker

[82 HiLux]

damn thats intense! looks like the front axle is back in the stock location!! did you end up on top of the honda or something? thats so lame.  personally, i think you should go crack some skulls for that

[twistedtoy92]

HAHA! Yeah I was on top of him then kicked up on two wheels about rolled it, luckily I didnt have the 40's on or I would have jumped him!
You dont even know how tempting that sounds........ I'll be back on top of my game soon, might take a few months to rebuild but it'll be linked... at least one axle! Gonna be making bank after graduation on the 19th, raise and more hours

[82 HiLux]

just whatever you do, dont scrap the truck. TOYOTAS NEVER DIE. that would be sick if you did like a monster truck and ramped off that car in the middle of traffic and it didnt hurt your truck. id be willing to bet thats happened before

[THK Matt]

and then they made bumper/height laws

[8Snaces]

LOL! good point.. DAMN THOSE LAWS!

[twistedtoy92]

damn them laws..... but on a good note, little update on the old twisted toy: insurance is coming out within the next few days to check out the damages and get copies of my reciepts that I have for all of those goodies I had on there and write me a check... might be buyin an 85 4runner-22re-5speed-little lift-32's with part of the insurance for my DD    keep it a nice legal trail capable rig and use it to haul the 92 truggy project once that gets finished in the late summer/fall.     I also ordered a new tool box for myself since graduation is next friday- no more tool discounts!   

[46&2]

Damn thats a sweet tool box. 85 runner sounds like a good plan. Also congrats on the graduation, I just realized its been 5 years since I graduated. I am starting to feel old lol 

[NorCalToy]

my brother has that exact same grabber green snapon toolbox. its pretty freakin nice.

and hes also got teh box that stacks on top of it

got a pic of the stainless benchtop?

[twistedtoy92]

[twistedtoy92]

54 inches wide, 24 inches deep, 39 7/32 inches tall, 11 drawers.......it will make it so nice to wrench having that much more space and a work top

Oh damn I was thinking high school. I am still in college, 4 years deep, probably at least another 4 years to go... good job though man it will be nice to start your career. I am tired of working jobs to get by I am ready for a career

[twistedtoy92]

yeah its nice knowing you have work to do! boss just dropped me $950 to put down on the setup. Insurance is sending out an adjuster to check out the damages and I will make them copies of the reciepts that I kept from the majority of the build. See how much I get back out of this and how much I can buy the yota back for........

[twistedtoy92]

well some good and some bad news.... they mailed my insurance check today, but I only got $1978 after buying the 92 back....... the guy is holding the 4runner for me though!!!! I'll keep you guys updated!

[THK Matt]

aww bummer, least he's holding it for you!

[twistedtoy92]

yeah doesnt that blow?? put ALL that time and MONEY into the old girl and some moron who shouldnt be on the road ruins it and all I get is that.... BUT I guess at least I got SOMEthing back and I'll have the 85 EFI SA 4Runner I've always wanted for my DD!!!  I've been stacking hay for the past week and have some time off now so once I get paid next week from my shop AND stacking I'm headin to Tacoma to drive the runner back
I'll post pics when I get it!   

[THK Matt]

[twistedtoy92]

well I FINALLY got my runner...... it needs a little love just like any other 1985 rig but man it is pretty damn clean!!  I'll post pics up this evening

[95SAS]

Cant wait to see the Runner with the 4Ds

haha

[twistedtoy92]

yeah thats probably not gonna happen......... runner is down,    blew the head gasket last night so now I have to pull the motor and go through it..... I'm not having very good luck lately  

[THK Matt]

[twistedtoy92]

yeah no doubt..... i took a closer look yesterday and it hydroed #2 and threw the rod through the block...... time for a whole new motor!!!!
