Everything is here! Rear shocks are donkers compared to the fronts. When the fronts are extended to their max, they're about as long as the rears collapsed. All in All. im pleased with everything so far. All the shipping has been prompt. everything was cheap. This will all be installed on saturday ( having a little wrenching party with my neighbor )



Also ordered some new blinkers for my TJM bumper. Its the old school model and i was worried that they dont make this bumper anymore, let alone the blinkers. Well. They dont make the bumper anymore, but they still use the same blinkers on the new model! They also have them in clear, but require a little modding. Figured i'd just order up some ambers!

They sent a catalog, a few stickers, and the full housings ( wiring, housings, bulbs, lens', and instructions )

Scraping sas and goin for barely any lift with 35"s hey! Sounds like me a while back haha. Though no im trying 4" with 35's :p
What tires are u gonna rock?

MaK92-4RnR

KM2s mine have 40% tread left with 24k miles on them. and im not easy on them what so ever, nor am i current on my rotations. lol

91_TOYOTA_4x4

Oyah haha you like those tires eh?

Im bad for not rotating tires too :S i havent rotated mine on my mr2 yet in like a year and i have some negative camber so they are so uneven by now i bet lol owell

Hey i need extended brake lines for my 4" lift. What should i go with a brand or just some custom made ones?

MaK92-4RnR

Yeah. hard to stay on top of... I have my phone reminding me every 4 1/2 months now Im surprised my tires have held up this long.... with lockers, they get kinda chewed.

I just bought trail gear ones. they're like 40 dollars. 26" long. You can always buy stock replacements for much cheaper if you dont want SS lines.

91_TOYOTA_4x4

Good idea with the reminder lol blows with my car though because i have 255's in the back and 215's up front so the tires have to come off the wheels everytime to rotate em

TG has em? Dang 40 bucks aint bad! I think ill just grab those eh. Godamn 3vze's are fun to work on ahhh! Still havent got my new engine in

MaK92-4RnR

dude, i wouldn't even rebuild it. just buy a used but low mile motor, and drop it in with a tune up. golden..


and yeah they sell all 3 for 75 bucks... but the fronts are wayyy too long for IFS in general. lol you can buy factory brake lines and attach them together.

91_TOYOTA_4x4

Thats what i did lol bought a engine with 200k for 200 bucks that came out of a running truck. Im gonna see how it runs then if all is good do a good tune up. Then im gonna find a 22re 2wd truck, rebuild the 22re cam'd, ported, header, exc... And have everything i need from the 2wd to swap over. Basically end up with a solid v6 drivtrain with a strong 22re :p cant explain how quick a properly built 22re is, my buddies climbes hills in any gear and can even excel up hill from 1000 rpm in 4th lol

So buy some standard front lines and link them up and buy the one off tg for the back? Could i use whatever brand fro the front or should i just rip some good ones off a used runner?

MaK92-4RnR

yeah you can buy stock lines and attach them to the stock lines... its like a 6" extension... you should be fine with that.

91_TOYOTA_4x4

Ok sweet! Im going to do that. Also i need cheap shocks?

Buying 35x12.50 toyo muds next friday too! Who makes the circle window 15x8 steelies again?

ToyoTech559

nice parts. finally a lift. cant wait to see this thing on 35s off road!!

MaK92-4RnR

cragar

MaK92-4RnR

haha yeah im a tad bit excited about it. I think they'll fit nicely. If i can fit 33x10.50s stock. I should easily be able to fit 35s with a 2" lift up front and a 4" in the rear with the correct backspacing and trimming...

ToyoTech559

for sure. aslong as the lines you pick are straight on, you should be fine. its when flexed out and turning that causing the rubbing

91_TOYOTA_4x4

Crager! Yes lol what backspacing?

Guess mak we will both be rockin 35's finally! Cant wait!!!! Hope i dont rub too bad

MaK92-4RnR

exactly what im worried about. flexed out, turning, with low gears and locker up front. can we say snappin' CVs? lol

ToyoTech559

the diff drop will help plus stay off the skinny pedal. just crawl!!

MaK92-4RnR

I cant put a diff drop, I have an IFS brace.

ToyoTech559

just drop the brace a little lower. i have a diff drop and need a brace as well. was gonna make the brace hang a tad lower to clear the diff and install a skid under the front and rear brace so it will slide. besides i never had any clearance issues with the diff hitting anything

MaK92-4RnR

Didn't get a chance to work on my truck yesterday so the lift is still in the garage and not on the truck :/

I might be picking up a nice little surprise when I get off work, though... Anyone care to make a guess...?
