Hi new to the scene...
« on: May 07, 2012, 03:36:25 PM »
Hi my name is Bryce im from Fresno Ca and I own a 94 4runner, I've owned it since August and it's my first toyota, it was bone stock when I got it...


Since then I've built some rock sliders, built a front bumper with winch, removed rear bumper and raised the tow reciever...



Then after messing around with balljoint spacers and lc coils I found this on Craigslist...



So I swapped over the SAS and the rear leafs and made a square front driveline and put on the 35's, and pretty much
that's how it sits now...





Hope you enjoyed my story! If you see me on the trail say hi!!

Awesome! It looks like a Type 1-A transfer case from behind a L43 4-speed transmission. Identifiers are the two-wire 4WD shift light plug and the small diameter front flange. I can't see the entire input but I'm willing to bet it's the stepped spline 4-speed type :thumbs:
