MiniSimp's 1985

[Wermz84]

If I could just keep the dogs from licking my ears while I'm torquing my nuts it would be a good day.

    No wonder it's taking you so long to fix your truck. 

[MiniSimp]

Thinking....

[*** YELLER ***]

wow your gonna mount yer spare tire under yer bed.... what a novel idea 

[brockbuilt85]

wow, cadd. your gettin all crazy engineer on us now

[MiniSimp]

wow your gonna mount yer spare tire under yer bed.... what a novel idea 

Um...no, only 4runners have to do that dumbass.

[Rocksurfer]

I was gonna say that it's gonna hit but then put 2+2 together and realized your going to mount it in the bed.

[MiniSimp]

41" lowers, 30.5" uppers double triangulated.

[snowshoebrue]

did you figure that out that fast or are those what your are supposed to be

[MiniSimp]

did you figure that out that fast or are those what your are supposed to be

total and complete guess, without more info from you it's kinda hard to do. PM me tomorrow and I'll do it for ya.

[snowshoebrue]

cool i'll pm you later.  the four link calc confuses me, plus i am going crossed eyed doing all the reading on it

[MiniSimp]

Got the spacers remounted on the rear tonight, now all that is left is to find the caliper bolts for the PS caliper, mount it, mount the FPS spacer and wheel, find which fuse I lent to my neighbor 6 months ago, charge the battery, change all the fluids and hunt black widdows. After I get it mobile it goes to the driveway to replace the steering arms.

[*** YELLER ***]

[MiniSimp]

Tell me about it. I need to get to the fabrication part already.

[MiniSimp]

First I took off the tire...

[*** YELLER ***]

well a least someone is working on yer rig 

[brockbuilt85]

looks like you finally gave the job over to a professional

[Rocksurfer]

Or at least to someone that knows what he's doing.

[MiniSimp]

they were alone and got freaky while you were ignoring them, and multiplied, bow chicka bow wow

Ok, got my PS caliper on and it's sitting on 4. Now it's time to figure out why it won't start.

Known to do list:
Start it
Put in Driveway
Install new steering arms
Highlift the inside of the cab 2" wider
Change front diff fluid
Change transfer case fluid
Change transmission fluid
Change rear diff fluid
Change oil
Add radiator fluid
Bleed brakes
Install limit straps on front axle (too much droop)

Might be, I haven't even checked.

[MiniSimp]

Got it running tonight; battery was severly corroded, coke fixed it. Moved it in to the driveway and cleaned up the engine.
