    Back in the Game!!

    I got the Fuel pressure regulator on and some new plugs and it made a big difference as far as how peppy she is. I have the sliders 90% welded on. Gotta get more wire tomorrow. I got the headlights installed. I'm just waiting on the H4 harness. Also cleaned the frame up and got a fresh coat on...

    Yes. I did alot of rsch on it last night. I noticed yesterday that it don't like WOT. I called a buddy and he said the same thing. After looking at the specs of the carb and the mechanical fuel pump I realized I needed one. Thanks for the good advice!

    It is the SR5. It does have the cool seats. And they are in great shape. Unfortunately someone thought it was a good idea to convert it over to Carb bc the EFI had issues. But its ok ill make the best of it. Maybe ill get lucky and find some EFI stuff or just propane it .

    Where to start and how much 4Runner

    I agree with almost all of that. I just can't see a cv stronger than a birf. Maybe because I have went thru a few cv's with no locker. But it's prolly bc of a 4" lift and cheap cv's and a heavy right foot.. I have 2 broke cv's right now. I will say the factory cv's did last longer than the...

    Where to start and how much 4Runner

    I agree with everything u said except the ifs being stronger than a solid axel.. The ifs has a 7.5" ring gear where the solid axel is a 8". The cv axels are the biggest weak point IMO. A 8" axel stock can be locked and ran that way with sum broken birfs here and there but a ifs locked well... U...

    Building my first trail truck!

    I'm sure others can help u better.. But for now look thru the threads below about the sas and TG lift there is about three threads that are recent. They talk about leaf springs all the different styles and different set ups. Link will always flex better hands down! I say Chevy 63's in the...

    trail gear sas and rear lift blocks

    Well idk y ppl say they suck I like my 63's but they are long. But with that said I have no problem other than my shackle scrub a rock every now and then. I can't tell u an exact measurement bc u are doing it on a older truck and not using 63 but when I did my 63's we made a plumb bob out of...

    F150 spring

    Do u have manual locking hubs at the moment? I don't think it will be hard to swap over hubs! Also I have Chevy 63" springs on my taco and I love mine. They flex very well. I will say they are soft and sag with a load of fire wood in the bed( I did take out the overload spring) for better...
