My Build 1986 4runner SAS 36s etc

"Later, I learned that even though I engage 4WD my hubs are not automatically locking? Something about manual locking hubs I think. What's manual mean? I need to read a manual to lock them? lol  So I found these neat autolocking hubs and installed them. Sometimes they dont stay locked while I am backing up, but that's fine because I dont have a backup camera to see where Im going (like our RV) so I just simply dont ever back up"- BigMike

I never knew about it until I saw the truck parked(out of gas)halfway up a slab on three wheels out at moonrocks, he then continued to fully get it up the slab.

Haha nope. I like it. Want to try and run KOH next year with, but I don't think a 1 1/2 inch cage will pass tech.

it's a not so perfect fuel cell design. Under half tank at slight angles fuel doesn't get to the pump. On my long list of issues to fix.

Nice Eddie....Looks awesome.   That rig is ready to try little sluice and old sluice. 
I need a couple rigs that are willing to try old sluice with me at the roundup.
Hopefully by then ill have some half doors and rear bumper done.
