Did you guys figure out why it wouldn't start? 

[*** YELLER ***]

thats 'cause we never made it past the slabs...    and the best we have figured out so far is that fuel pump quit

That sucks! Big time!    Well, just glad it wasn't the cause of any injuries of any kind.  Maybe next time.

Bum deal  Not to much to fix though. The runner looks awesome. Hope you have better luck and maybe i'll see you there next year.

yea, no one got hurt, just my pride a lil.
all in all, i was impressed how well it did for the time it ran, and while it was running, i had a blast. im also thinking the fuel pump might have been an issue for a while, hence the gutlessness up hills.
here is some video of Yeller AKA AAA (thanks buddy)

he'll take it after all that he had 2 bolts holding his steering wheel on

[brockbuilt85]

heck yes ill take it.
i actually found two of the bolts on the floor, so its now somewhat safer.
as soon as i get some money flow going again, im gonna fix it and depending on what the weather is like, i may day trip the rim, but if that closes, ill figure something out.

[Wermz84]

Hey Cody,

I just did this on my front end and it worked like a charm.

Of course to do that you should also get the knucke rebuild kit.   yeah i know, it's all money.

My pleasure buddy!    On the brigh side, that was the only time I had to use that mild simple green solution.

[brockbuilt85]

yea, its all about the money, but im already lookin for kits and parts. to get my truck back together, im thinkin its gonna cost around 300, which fixes my front end, and replaces fuel pump(assuming thats what it is)

[Wermz84]

Don't forget the trunion bearings.

[brockbuilt85]

those dont come in the kit?? jeebus. $$$$

[Wermz84]

No they don't.

I spent $200 at Toyota for 4 of them.  but I get piece of mind that they are new.  Since the last time I replaced them was 8 years ago.  And i don't trust the ones from my local auto parts store from third world countrys.

[brockbuilt85]

holy poo, thats alot of money

[brockbuilt85]

i have a feeling napa will supply mine....

[Wermz84]

I offer hope, but have yet to do this.  A guy in my truck club ordered from this site.
http://www.wbds.com/ and got Timken bearings instead of Koyo.

let me know i can give you his part numbers.

[brockbuilt85]

how much did they run? or do you know?

[brockbuilt85]

this kit says it includes "knuckle bearings"
those are not the same?
