1-piece weber adapter still working flawlessly.

Put new valve core in tire a little while back, it worked longer this time, but the dang tire is still going flat on me.
Probably mud/pebbles in bead again.

Still haven't gotten the pics of the hi-lift rebuild up yet.

Lack of beadlocks that why. lol. Unfortunately they are both expensive and not street legal in PA.

pffft.

do those new tires help that much in the mud pit? I guess they do, but you have to air down and you are gonna always have the problem of crud getting in there. I have 4 extra 31's, 2 in really good shape and 2 not-so-good. find some rims, throw them on, mud wit those and crawl with the ones you have or both or neither. what?

Bah mud season is over, doubt I will get to go wheeling by the end of the year, got another spot starting on frame as well. Otherwise, I'd probably be going to RC this weekend.

4.88 Front Courtesy of 3MPH Toy

Bout time I find a good deal on something. Now to just find a matching rear. I will have to convert the ADD shaft on it using my current one.
Time to start doing some reading. Should be simple enough. https://www.yotatech.com/forums/f116...l-tube-225215/

DANG, sorry to hear that, B! I bet you wanted to go, eh? Well, you'll have that third in and frame buffed up in no time. And, well, look at it this way... maybe you'll save yourself from some freezin crises by staying this one out, right? lol.

fuggettabowtit

nah...just was doing some early morning searching.

keep coming up with lots of parts in Elizabethtown which is where I got my door and the guy goes on ebay (and here i think) as "toyotapartsdude or toyotafoolish" ...i think it's "partsdude".

other guy on here who may have a line on stuff is "drptmazda?"....i bought wheels off of him in Allentown and he knew alot of stuff. he was on Joe's thread a few times too.

If I buy another vehicle and use one for a dedicated trail truck, it will be another yota, 84-85 lets say.

I did send that guy an email though and asked what gearset was in the 3rd he has. I'd be willing to bet though it's either a 4.10 or a 4.30.

the guy emailed back with an unexpected diff ratio. Wonder if it's from a 4x4 or not because it doesn't sound right.
its a 3.90 in the 83, also have a 4.10 out of a 92 rear...
Only problem according to 4x4wire: http://www.4x4wire.com/toyota/faq/parts/
3.90s only available in 1981, 8" drums.
But 4x4wire never covers 2wd's for the most part.
