wow, thats a good build too!

i was thinking about your build up last night and a couple questions came to mind:

what didnt you like about the 7mgte?

what made you choose to swap it out for the 3.4?

what are your thoughts on the 7mge?

thanks

boxxerace

Great stuff so far!

Was checking out this thread and the one on i8mud on the chopped 80 in between coats of paint on my marlin bumper and sliders....Increadible work!! I wish I could ship my '81 down to you and have you work on it.....
Can't wait to see your truck in action....

Awesome build. Can't wait to see trail pics.

SAS'dToy

Thanks, and you can ship it on down, I'll have time to work on it sometime around January

well there has been talk of me selling the truck....possibly...what will go with it if it is sold is the following
1-92 x-cab, title
the frame and all the tube work that I have done(and a bunch of extra tube pieces
3.4L and a bellhousing to adapt to a R151 or R150
ALL THE LINKS and the Currie JJ's even the spares, a load of 3/4" hiems
spare links
sorry, the axles don't go (unless someone really wants them)
t-case and fancy ass t-case x-member I built
snorkel
1/2 doors
ANY SPARE parts and extra pieces I have (extra headlights, grills, doorpanels, glass, heater cores, dashs yada, yada)
MUCH MUCH MORE
I am keeping the tires and wheels
You guys know how much time and $$$ I have into this project...I know that I'll lose on it but oh well

PM me if you are INTERESTED....this truck would be badass but I'm more than likely going to the inevitable for my needs...a buggy

idayota

crazy, can't believe you're selling it before you get the chance to wheel it. well, good luck with selling it and with the next build.

SAS'dToy

it's 50/50 right now...I don't know what I should do

Jolpy Toy

its going to be a nice rig when your done and wheelin it.

long awated update...
got more parts!
I now have almost everything I need to swap the engine over and make it run!
The other night I went and picked up my IMPCO propane setup and then Sam dropped by and brought the TH350 to Toyota t-case adapter!

SOON!

cant wait to see it on the trail, keep up the good work

OK, I just read this entire thread and I can honestly say that the fab work was very well thought out and the quality of this build was awsome! I have built a few rigs that can be found on 4x4n.com, but nothing like this one. Are you really planning on selling this vehicle?

SAS'dToy

UPDATE TIME!
Back into the shop

Back out of the truck

Adapter Plate to run Toyota case behind a TH350 and the 4340 output shaft so what happened to Jamie and Jake doesn't happen to me...

Propane setup in the bag


I'll keep it and I'm already planning on the next buggy...I'm keeping it and getting a bigger trailer so I can haul both when that time comes..who knows maybe I'll have a companion to drive one or the other

idayota

what are you planning on doing with the front fenders? gonna try to run them or cut them up or eliminate them and go tube?

Albert.G

did that 4 runner grill just snap in? im asking because i also want to use 4 runner headlights, any info would be appreacated

SAS'dToy

I'm gonna cut them to clear...prob end up with some tube on the inside


NOT EVEN CLOSE! I had to cut the entire radiator support out of a 2nd gen 4runner it is a bitch and not worth the aggravation

idayota

how much wider did the fzj axles make you over stock width? how much backspacing did you add when you had the center's added to the h1 wheels?
