Thanks for the invite..

Right now I have 86 runner, sitting on 60's, with 37" Toyo shoes for now (hopefully 42's when done).
5" All Pro's up front, Chevy 63" in the rear.
Just got my high steer arms today (WFO products) very nice, they have the adjustment nut on top for the king pins.
Hopefully in about a week or so the jack stands will be off the truck and the mock up done.
Then it time to pull out the auto/transfercase out, then swap in a 5 speed with the Marlin dual case's (4.7 in the rear).
After all that, then its going to be all the little what nots to get it all trail ready.

I plan to do a posting of the build up, maybe I will get that started this weekend..

just an FYI, DO NOT BUY the Harbor Freight pitman puller, I broke 2 of them today with very little effort, it has been soaking with PB blasted for 2-3 weeks , B.F.H and also using heat.    
Guess what can you expect for $6.99

The guy at Harbor Freight gave me a funny look. I was 3 times in about 2 hour period, after buying the 1st puller, then returned that broken one (got an replacement), then next one broke.  He ask what I doing, he was trying to school me on the proper way to use it , I told him I borrowed a buddies Snap On puller, no issue's with that..
