The nice thing about the Fuel Safe cells is that they have a vent valve that goes directly into the charcoal canister...no gas fumes on the trail..




Looks like a good place for the runner emblem
Super tight cage!

not sure how the dashboard fit back in...it took some finnagaling

Finishing up rear brakes

Temporary exhaust


Brake prop valve

Donor marlin bumper

Aligned using 4Crawlers method

Trail gear brake lines (they ACTUALLY look like they were made by a 7 year old Chinese kid...no , sorry buddy)

Rotors, brakes, backing plate is cut

That thing is so sweet. I'd love to do something like that but wouldnt know where to start with all the tube lol. I like how you kept the tube non-gloss even through-out the body. And the back toyota emblem just tops it off. lol. A+!

So how are those 7yr old kid made brake lines holding up?

I need to buy a longer rear one and not sure where to go about getting one.
Maybe not trail gear? Maybe, just depends on your response

I would never run them and never compromise my braking system, personally.
We are using an OOOOLD pro comp line for the rear that came with some ancient kit that looks to be in better condition than that NEW line FWIW. I have crown lines on my truck that I got from Marlin....wow talk about a quality line. The difference is night and day

I just looked on marlin's site. SO you can just buy the rear line? If so ill just go through them for $30 bucks! I just need a longer line, the cruiser coils are too tall for the stock location, and instead of messing with trying to make new brackets i figured id just get a new line!



BTW THAT 4runner (or whats left of it) looks awesome! Wheres the wheeling pics?
