how much lift do rears up front give you??

just adjust height with shackle... or?

Do you have manual or power windows? I have the power window regulators in my garage if you need those to. Let me know.

Ramrod · « **Reply #63 on:** Dec 16, 2008, 09:22:15 PM »

plenty to match marlin 4", you can adjust hieght with different arched springs or shackle lengths and hanger lengths. the possibilities are endless

Shamb · « **Reply #64 on:** Dec 22, 2008, 04:46:16 PM »

they're manual windows, thanks though.

so my 30 spline longs came in the mail today, as most of you already know with the recent birth of our first child.. progress on the 4runner will slow down a bit but i'll keep posting as I progress.

yota_krawler · « **Reply #65 on:** Dec 22, 2008, 05:00:25 PM »

30 splines are a good chunk of money tho, it marks one thing off the list!

Shamb · « **Reply #66 on:** Jan 01, 2009, 03:42:51 PM »

since I had the day off I tore into the rearend... pulled the 3rd, got a third w/ 5.29's and a detroit from tom w. that i'll be installing soon.

sweet, whats on the agenda?

Good to see you got a little time off and got to go relax in the garage. I bet its nice having a vehicle that you can fit into the garage when you want to work on it.

Shamb · « **Reply #71 on:** Feb 05, 2009, 08:32:41 PM »

Hey Chris, if you talk to Kellert tell him to call me. I got his message about needing to know some info on the truck but my phone took a dive and I don't have his number.

On a lighter note,
Gonna be getting the rear 3rd gone through and checked out. Then I plan on smogging it (within the next week hopefully) right now work is busy and i'm working 6 days a week, pulling on-call and helping my wife with the baby.. so it's been ridiculously busy!

I'll post progress pic's once I get 'em

YO SHAMSTER I fould page 2 to be boring and without pictures, lets not let this happen again...

now back to the build

thegoofster21 · « **Reply #73 on:** Jul 13, 2009, 07:11:09 AM »

any up dates

Shamb · « **Reply #74 on:** Oct 17, 2009, 02:42:49 PM »

got the rear end completely rebuilt with a new set of Sierra 5.29's, detroit locker, new bearings and seals.

It's all back together, I just gotta get some oil in the diff and bleed the brakes.

Slowly but surely..

Next will be pulling out the front end for a rebuild, then moving on to installing springs and suspension.

its dead! so I got the main fuses replaced and it has juice now but wont start.

I havn't started pulling things apart to see if i'm getting either no fuel or no spark... it cranks over though...

It's been sitting for about a year or so.... I'll post updates soon.

Hope to have it running and back on the road within the next month.

Shamb · « **Reply #79 on:** Apr 26, 2010, 02:25:23 PM »

got it running this past weekend, next on the to-do list will be getting it registered

Shamb · « **Reply #82 on:** Dec 03, 2010, 04:50:25 PM »

none, it sets.....probably not going to touch it until around Aug/Sept of next year when I have time and $

Shamb · « **Reply #83 on:** Jun 09, 2011, 02:13:17 PM »

Bought everything for the power steering the other day, taking it in tomorrow to see if it'll pass smog so I can get it registered and on the road.

SLLLLLLLLLLLOW progress.......sucks!

Cheesemaker · « **Reply #84 on:** Jun 09, 2011, 08:17:00 PM »

I know what you mean Shamb!!

Shamb · « **Reply #85 on:** Jun 09, 2011, 08:27:26 PM »

If anyone has a lead on some stock rear's i'm interested... I think i'll put my 4" marlins in the rear and do rears up front.

I should hopefully have some progress pic's soon, i've been chugging along at it each weekend when I have time. My daughters to the age now where I can bring her out and just let her run around the yard or sit in the 4runner while I work. She loves sitting in the Runner... hah... I can't wait to let her drive it on the trail.

Shamb · « **Reply #87 on:** Jun 09, 2011, 09:53:38 PM »

yea it was dead, brought back to life and then died again.. now it's been reincarnated....

front end rebuild will be on it's way from Marlin soon

gonna be swapping out the tires for some 37's, possibly 40's... not sure yet... i sure wish they still made the old school Goodyear MTR pattern, I don't care for the new one's.

I don't care for the new ones either. What are you doing with the 36s on it right now? If you plan to sell them let me know a price I might be interested.

wakkjobb · « **Reply #89 on:** Jun 10, 2011, 09:26:47 PM »

Them new-style MTRs seem to be holding up well on the rigs I know of; it just bugs me they are directional now. What the F for? Why, Goodyear, WHY?
