I got to say... you can't drive

Hey guys been a while since ive had internet.  I am just using a friends net for a few so I thought I would post a few pics and stats of whats been done of late.
I did get 4.7 gears and 23 spline adapter dual cases.  Not that I am gonna use it any time soon but I will be ready for next season.   I had to make a new rear drive shaft with a cv but I need to get it balanced. 
Hopefully I will get my internet back soon.  Atleast my truck is  still running well.

[superyota]

looking good!

[jimbo74]

did you get to test it on the freeway? how did it do?

[IVrunner]

Heres a pic of the roll cage.  I didnt get it painted before I installed it but it will work just fine.

Did you swap in a 2nd gen truck or 1st gen 4runner gas pedal?  The 1st gen gas pedals that pivot at the floor are a pain in the ass.  Do you still have the cab around to snap a couple more pics of this?

Ya and its not great.  It vibes under load pretty hard.  Gonna get to tracy to get one built right. I think the cv is just hammered.  When I get a chance ill change the ujoints out.

Ya its a second gen pedal and it does work much better.   I still have the cab but I dont know if I am gonna keep it or not.

Hey guys I finally got internet back.  If anyone wants my old truck come and get it or I might have to scrap it. 
I got my rear 5125's installed but they are pretty stiff.   
Worst of all my trans I put in a few months ago broke the 5th gear.  I pulled it apart and put another gear in.  Seems to be better but there is still something very wrong with it. 
This truck is pretty close to being parked for a while.  I got an old 91 ford superduty off my dad which runs great and has a new trans.  Down side to it is it looks like hell.  Has a utility bed on it which is coming off tomorrow and when I get the money I am gonna make a flat bad for it.  Then this will be my tow rig. 
Gonna be posting a bunch of crap to sell off tomorrow. 

[CrazyYota]

what do you left from the old truck? 

[jimbo74]

josh!!!! glad to see you are still around..... we should hang out before i deploy next month!

[GreenYoterKrawler]

Ha i wrecked my 81, not really i just flopped it Hard at moonrocks last weekend. Sooo badass there.
Anyways Kooter, did you say you have an extra cab? im now in need of one, i live in rocklin, ca where are you located?

[crazykooter]

Steve925 here had a really nice cab a few months ago.  Msg him and see if he still has it.

The blue 82 is pretty close to being cut up and scraped. 

I have a few updated pics and what not of what ive done in the past few months.

[crazykooter]

Would be a shame to see it scraped.

[GreenYoterKrawler]

Last post mentions the cab.

[crazykooter]

The cap body is in great shape cept for the front clip was cut but would be a breeze to repair. 
I was gonna buy it and replace my 82 cab but I dont have the money for it. 
Hes really close to me in brentwood. 

[crazykooter]

Heres a few update pics. 
Still need to mount sliders and figure out if the vibration under load im having is dual case adapter or trans.





This thing made a big diff at freeway speeds.  I dont lose nearly any speed on hills anymore.

[jimbo74]

Haha Thank You! not only does this reduce pollution, but it actually gives back horsepower. it reduces backpressure and actually pumps ur exhaust out, by making a forward pulling vaccum for the next pulse of exhaust. Really helps when ur running a cat

[T.Rex]

Wanna sell the wire harness? I'll take that

i think that was in regards to the LCE header, not the EGR.

[jimbo74]
