[88runner]

look real good, I like when you had only the rear done, was a great gettho(sp?) mobile

[webilt]

hopefully this coming weekend (Labor Day) I will have this thing out and about,, and see how if flexes up,!!

[Hyena]

Nice runner!  Thumper, you really going with 49 inch iroks?  Just saw 2 new ones right off the diesel and they are hugh!  $600 a tire.  And that isn't even with tax or shipping.  But dang, that runner is sweet.  If it's driveable ou should come to Fordyce saturday.  I plan on running the trail with some firends in our yota's.

a few more pic of the build up,,
1st is the raised gas tank mounts,, the 2nd gen factory tank mounts are part of the crossmember that also has the rear coil/links attached,, so we removed everything, and started over,, and while at it decided to raise the tank 2.75"s

[webilt]

rear spring hangers, and double/swing shackles

[Thumper]

Rig looking good.
Ya hyena i plan on running 49 irocs, i thought about 44's but if im gonna go big might as well do 49's because i like the tire and have seen them work and ive seen lots running 44's around here and i wanna try the 49's.
Maby by the time i get the rig finished and order my tires they will be cheaper, and i know a super swamper dealer so i can get them at cost so that is too my advantage.
I thought about going coilover shocks too but they are so much around 600 apeace so i may just use coils but i may have a lead on a guy that can get me some cheaper like less then half because he runs monster trucks and they have too replace them once or twice a season and he can get them cheaper so i may get a set threw him dont know yet still working on that deal.
pics look good cant wait too see it out on the trail.

I know what you mean, ,I havnt even started up the engine in this rig yet,since to build -up,and I'm already making plans for an exo, an internal rear trunk, and I'm going to be cutting off the rear upper roof ( going for the Isuzu Amigo look),, 

[4rox]

Heres my 89 on 40 boggers.In the process of adding four wheel steering and caging it.

[webilt]

I cant wait to" drive" back down to the previous owners house, and show her ,,her old vehicle,!!!,, she was very excited to tell  me that she had reciently changed out the stereo,(from a cassette, to a CD player),, and was wondering what other mod's I was planning,!!!!!!

here is a pic,, of the Runner just before I bought it,!!

[KYOTA]

Dammit! I didnt know I was getting 3 days off soon enough or I'd be down there this weekend, oh well Memorial next year. Tony's staying with Case for a month so I'm sure you'll see those guys. Good job on the new 'Runner.
