An 80 is not practical in any way at all they are just fun and really cool. -
BlueCruiser84 replied to the thread Builds 82 first Gen Project (RECON).You need to run some springs that push the front axle forward. Rear springs or the fancy Sky Off-road springs would do it. That’s the only way you are going to keep a 35 out of the body.

BlueCruiser84 replied to the thread Builds Project Rehab.Nothing to add. Chopping is super easy. It’s the filling in the holes that takes a while.

BlueCruiser84 replied to the thread Official For Sale/Trade/WTB/Free Thread.I’ve got a set of 86-95 Toyota pickup/4runner 4.88s diffs for sale. Rear is a rebuilt 4cylinder Marlin crawler unit and front is a factory 4.88 takeout. I pulled these out of my semi-daily driver when I put in a solid axle. No issues with the...

The other update is the rear bumper. This was a "make-it-up-as-you-go" design. I just built it from whatever steel I had on hand. Main bumper is 3x4" rec tube. Wings and center section are 3/16". DOM corner guards. Full 1" thick recovery...

FJ40 rollcage. Seems to be well made. Welds look decent. $150. Come get it in Marshall Va. -
Agree. You figure with 400 foot pounds at your disposal the 8 speed would trust 6-7-8 to get the job done on highway inclines but it's about as indecisive as a hipster at a beer tasting event.

Otherwise everything worked perfectly. Single picture from the trail and the highway to prove I did both. I got denied on that...

BlueCruiser84 replied to the thread What Did You Do with Your 80 This Weekend?.I was just trying to save a fellow cruiserheads life. One minor front end collision would have put about 400 lbs of stuff through @davidp14 windshield. I’m assuming his head would have gone with it.

The last several weekends but I finished my drawers. The main Caracas was given to by local badass @BlueCruiser84. I built the drawers, wings, and covered the top. Camping/cooking stuff is in the bigger drawer on the ds and tools and more...

BlueCruiser84 replied to the thread 4runner.... rescue?.It was a fun project. If I take one single picture while I’m wheeling, I’ll post it. This is not a thread with extensive content. I’d say I’m too old, but I don’t think that’s true. Still to do: -Rear bumpstops -Get both elockers working -Rear...

BlueCruiser84 replied to the thread 4runner.... rescue?.She lives! I put about 45 miles on it so far breaking in the gears. Drives really well. I outdid my expectations. There’s the obligatory flex shot. It had more to go but I ran out of dirt pile. Still a bunch of loose ends to tie up, but it’s...
