sas'd 1990 pickup

[superyota]

just picked this up thanksgiving day.  already been sas'd, dual ultimate, 4.10s with welded front, 10 bolt front, bed bobbed 11 inches, bucket seats with 5pt harnesses, and 22re with w56.  got a great deal on it.  something in the drivetrain rumbles when driving.  i'm hopeing it's something simple like a bad third or tranny.  going to start tearing into it this weekend.  future plans are d60 front with 14 bolt rear, and 5.89s with lockers.  building this up for my dad and selling the 83 supercab i started.  hopefully it will be ready for mcr11.

that thing is tall but badass great score, im building a 91 single cab il be watching this one

[superyota]

it had marlin 5 inch rears with 6 inch shackels, and waggy 4405's(not 4404's) up front.  i'm thinking of putting smaller shackles on the drop it a bit.  want to fix the drivetrain issue before i do anything else though.

[T-YOTER]

im running my rears up front with 63s outback might due a hybrid pack for the front

future plans are d60 front with 14 bolt rear, and 5.89s with lockers.

5.38 is the deepest gear you can go with a 14b

[superyota]

5.38 is the deepest gear you can go with a 14b

dang it!  i forgot about that.  maybe sell the 14b I have and get a d60 instead for the rear.  better clearance anyways.

[lilbuddy]

Nah dude I'd definitely keep the 14b. I grinded the bottom of the diff down and it has the same clearance as a 60 and more strength. If anything id ony ditch it for a 70

My heavy ass runner with the 40s scoots along pretty well on hills for 5.38s and 22re

[superyota]

good to know.  are you running disc brakes on your 14b?

[lilbuddy]

Yeah. I have the RuffStuff brackets on it. Bolted right up no issues and it got here in a day.

That thing just looks way to tall for 5inch springs.. weird.. looks bad ass though... How much did you pick it up for?

[superyota]

my bad, I looked at the springs again this weekend.  they are actually 4 inch marlin springs.  it actually doesn't sit too high.  i think the pictures are decieving.  the fenders are cut out pretty far which i think is what makes it look that way.  hoping to pick up some 37's for it soon.  painted it camo this weekend and welded up a new cat with muffler and tail pipe too.  hopefully it passes cali smog now.  i'll get some recent pics up today.

ditch that 10B lol

[superyota]

ditch that 10B lol

yea, i plan on it.  for now its going to have to do.  i'm working in l.a. all week long and don't get to go home very often.  when i get some time off i'll swap it for a d60.  i think my dad will drive it easy enough for the 10b to hold up for the time it's in there.

[THK Matt]

you keepin that yota rear n doin a d60 up front or swapping both f/r at the same time

[Zs Confederate Toy]

Looks like a good build to start with. Keepin my eye on this one

[superyota]

swapping front and rear at the same time.  probably get around to doing it this summer sometime.

[87hillbillyoter]

thing looks mean. cant wait to see what you do to it

[superyota]

fresh camo paint and new tail lights.  

[87hillbillyoter]

[superyota]

[Zs Confederate Toy]

[BHT12]

Agreed!!

[THK Matt]

Much Better

[lilbuddy]

damn id lower that thing like 4"..........

[superyota]

Got a xrc8 winch, hydro assist, and tube doors yesterday. Finally finished mounting the cb and got the tubing I needed to finish the front bumper and sliders. Traded the 35s for some 37 inch military take offs. Need to order up diy beadlocks fir it. Almost ready for the roundup!

[superyota]

I'll post up some more updated pictures with the tube doors and winch mounted when get them on.

[k5kickin]

dude that is freaking wicked

[superyota]

Added some tube doors and carpet. I was going to bob the shell but decided to do a walk through cab on it like mine and cage it instead. I'll have a shell up for sale now...

[THK Matt]

i say leave the top on. it becomes a 2nd gen 2 door 4runner with a removable top. DOPE. lol

[superyota]

That's what the plan was, but with the gas tank mounted up in the bed now it would be a pain to fill it.
