are those LEDs mark? do they do the trick?

[79coyotefrg]

hey Mark,  i think the Mammoth has enough engine,  we should put that 3kz  in my truck

[Willy Mammoth]

No they are a accent light that use an H4 bulb. Problem is they are a spot not a flood. We will see if they put out enough light soon enough.

Ok, but you will have to buy it, cause I haven't got it yet.  I here they only cost 5K with an auto, a standard may be more.

Thats why im looking at the VW TDi,
I can get the whole donor car for $1500, course then you need adapters and a trans and T-case and driveshafts and motor mounts and who knows what else.

the halfcuts have all that for $5K
the slushbox halfcuts are $4K

[Bazzi]

I can´t say nothing else then.....



It´s always a pleasure to read your posts and since i don´t have the time any more to work on my truck it´s just a pleasure to see you work on yours.........

[Lady Di]

 Thanks Bazzi! Now we can't wait for the pleasure to PLAY with it!

[Willy Mammoth]

When are yallz going with a four link???

Probably not till next summer. There is going to be some nice weather comming and that means camping trips and trail rides.


I also need time to research portals.

a very nice mod indeed,  im workin on a receiver hitch for my truck  but  keeping it high and tight so i can loose my rear anchor


this will also include a reciever mounted  VISE

I am done with the shackle reversal. You think I have time to do the 3.0L Toyota diesel swap?

Do I take this to mean you're gonna buy a 1kzte?  I have a line on one with an automatic for about $2100 in florida.  It's not a halfcut, so I'm not sure what all is there, but what I know is there is the engine, tranny and case.  You could make it a 1kzt by running a mechanical pump, but I'm not sure what all is truly entailed in this.  When you figure it out lemme know though, I'd rather go simple if I do this too.

I believe the "E" means electronic and unless everything is there it will be a pain to figure what to do with it.

Converting it to mechanical may be expensive to impossible, would be better to find a complete setup the way you want it to start with.

Also, beware, if the line you have is in Miami, there was a seller on ebay that was advertising engines, but when I called to see about going down there to look at it they said "NO" They don't have the engines there and I bet they are getting them imported after you pay.

Just FYI

[kneedownnate]

I've heard of that same deal too.  That's one good thing about jarco, they have the inventory they're selling.  You're right about the E too.  I've never got a definitive answer on if you can convert an E to a mechanical engine, but the biggest problem is trying to find a 1kzt.  They seem to be quite a bit more rare. 


You didn't answer my question though 

[Willy Mammoth]

That was the plan, just need more research and a source other than the 5K one 

[notajeep]

It's only money.

[kneedownnate]

What tranny are you runnin now?  It's a lot less for one with the automatic, and you obviously can make a bellhousing to fit whatever you want, so the real downside would be getting a flywheel.  I can pass along the contact info for the guy near you, maybe he actually has it in stock.  For the price it's worth a try, if it fits in your budget.  Otherwise I could put you directly in touch with mike hooper from jarco, maybe you can do some sweet talking or figure out a different path to take.
