i stopped workin on the body for a little while and started the flat belly it should be done later today so ill post some pics up.
Also has anyone flatbellied and extra cab with the carrier still in or are you running a one piece driveline?

[GrenadedToy]

a one piece will give you  for clearance.

[89sastoyo]

yeah I know, look at matts truck haha its got really bad clearance now that he did his. I think I might cut the hanger off and make a new one so the carrier is at the right angle or just raise it up if there is room if not just shim it to the right angle but we'll see.
Heres some pictures of the somewhat flat belly.




The ghetto piece of poop cross member I made as a temp for rolling around on and ended up wheeling with it lol



How high The t cases will sit



And the cross member

[coods]

nice job i like the color

[89sastoyo]

nice job i like the color

Haha yeah it doesnt match anything on the truck at all lol

[89sastoyo]

Well tomorrow im going to go pick up some 38 12.5 tsls they dont have wheels so ill probably just mount them on the street locks for now and buy wheels when i can get the cash for them.

[89sastoyo]

got the tsls mounted them up to see what rubs and where. The guy I bought the tires from is selling some weld ons that are on wheeels already with hardware for 200 so im planning on buying those friday and mounting them up on those

[yota-tota]

haha i like the pink!! How much of the floor did you cut out? I'm close to that stage on my 91 x-cab, same type t-case center section with the R10 adapter.

I cut it straight with the top of the reinforcement for the seat mounts then cut where it was needed to raise it up but i started with the straight cut that way i didnt have to make the whole tranny tunnel i just overlapped sheet metal and welded it so it was still as structural as before

Do you have a link to your build up?

[Jud]

Looks like a cool truck

[89sastoyo]

Looks like a cool truck

Thanks i still have a lot to do to it but its gettin there

[89sastoyo]

I picked up my bead locks today just got done wire wheeling all the bolts and painting the rings i should have them mounted tomorrow so ill post up some pics

[89sastoyo]

I got my bead locks done today. First and last for a loong time haha it takes for ever, I did one of mine and then went and helped grenagetoy for a while on his just to come back and work on mine. Now that there on i love them though heres some pics

[coods]

lookin good love the color

[89sastoyo]

lookin good love the color

Yeah I decided agaisnt the pink just because painting every part with a perfect white base coat sucks lol so im thinkin just all murdered out minus a few things here and there will be blue

[THK Matt]

is it just me or it looks like you have triples... not duals like mentioned.... did I miss something?


Sick truck man.

[89sastoyo]

I also cut the fenders some. I wanted to keep the stock body line look so i just tried to fade them back into the top it doesnt look to bad but im going to clean them up some, it worked out perfectly though they dont rub tucked at full turn the rears tuck up in the fender without rubbing also

Heres a couple pics

[89sastoyo]

is it just me or it looks like you have triples... not duals like mentioned.... did I miss something?


Sick truck man.

Hah actually no i have duals but when we did the cases Coods helped me and i didnt really know how to do it but he didnt realize i had a forward shift tranny so we cut the shift rails for the forward shift case and converted it to top shift. When I put the cases in i had to leave the stock 4wd shifter in because in the top of the tranny its a one piece cover. I just left it because in the future i plan on buying a w56 because my third gear syncro is getting pretty bad and its annoying

[THK Matt]

Oh I see... the optical illusion of having Triples

[89sastoyo]

Oh I see... the optical illusion of having Triples

Yeah makes me feel like im going slower you know lol

[THK Matt]

Yeah makes me feel like im going slower you know lol

opposite effect chrome does right? Lol.


Whats next to do on the whip yo?

[89sastoyo]

well i only have 2wd right now cause the front ring gear is toast and the housing is bent but i have another housing im just waiting on some cash flow to get a locker and set up the new diff then throw everything in

[THK Matt]

Oh that's right.
what locker you goin with?

[toyotanner]

why dont you buy that lockright from cody and fix it

[coods]

i would sell it to him but with that big of tire he is just gonna break it. unless he can find the hardened pins but robs told me they dont sell them anymore. i have broken it twice so far thats why i welded.

[toyotanner]

well i have been running 37's and 39.5's with mine and have never broken it... maybe if he had someone set it up when he gets his gears put in it will work good and not break?

[coods]

  you and me already had this conversation. it worked great for the entire time i was running the 36's as soon as i got the 38s it broke. we cant really use your truck as comparison cause when you wheel you arent as hard on it as i am. i kind of have a heavy foot

[toyotanner]

yea you are so much more hardcore than me 

[coods]

well i wasnt gonna say it outloud. but im not gonna argue with you im just saying your nicer to your truck then i am to mine and if he wants to run it  and have something that last i would not suggest  a lockrite. i broke mine. tim with the forunner is having problems with his and huff first time out broke his and guess what it was installed by a shop

[toyotanner]

whatever you do adam dont listen to cody he doesnt know what he's talking about... you can do anything just dont weld the front
