If you reconsider shipping, let me know. I have a business address that it can be shipped to -17055

Looking forward to seeing everyone, has been way too long. Thank you Andy for the seat!!

Any more pictures and possible interest in a trade for a first gen 4Runner plus some cash?

Looking for FJ40 or 60 spring over housings or axles. Thinking about changing some things up on the 71. Bolt in would be awesome, but if I can’t find something I’ll mess with the housings under it. Gary, I do still have the 99 4Runner, but holding onto it for the time being.

All good, thanks Gary!!

Gary, if the sale falls through, please let me know and I will come up and get it. The 71 needs a new suspension :)

Oh, that will take me several weeks. Should be around 10 pallets of block, a Tri-axle of clean backfill stone, perforated drainage pipe, and a couple rolls of Geo-grid to lock it all together. Good part is we are already scraped down to good bedrock base, just need to level things up. Waiting...

It’s amazing what 6 well accomplished framers can get done in a couple days. You can see on the right side we have a decent embankment, so I will be building a 120’ long 4’ high retaining wall in the next few weeks.

Thanks Gary. Framing has begun!! On an FJ40 note, looking for a 2.5” lift that rides nice. Any recommendations? Was kicking this kit around: https://redlinelandcruisers.com/shop/40-series/suspension/red-line-land-cruisers-ulitmate-fj40-lift-kit-2-inch/

Progress is being made!

Been busy with land clearing and getting the driveway cut in and house site ready. Layout and excavation in the next few weeks then foundation. If anyone wants/needs firewood, let me know :) Also took the FJ40 out for a spin and it is running like a top with the new intake and sensors I installed.

Nothing new with the Toyotas, been too busy with work and adding several new staff, as well as clearing the house site. Started off overgrown and very difficult to walk through, but getting there. The JD 850 has been running like a top and making things a bit easier. Probably 16 more trees to...

Very true 😆 I have big dreams!!

I do have an entire 3.4 4Runner, but was hanging onto it in case I want to do the swap or put it in something else.

Unfortunately no. Pulled the battery to put in the John Deere 850 and have been clearing land for the new house and shop. We are also in the full swing of the three kids sports and I tripled the size of my group at work, so have little free time and ambition to get it running right.
