    RockGoat Version 3RZ

    My 2rz swap had a nasty idle surge after reaching operating temps, no trouble codes. Tested the iac and one side had an open across the terminals. Replaced it with a napa echlin part because I didn't want to pay 250.00 either...it has been working great so far.

    And... my vehicular a.d.d. struck again. The day had come to excavate the 40 from my mom's shop and haul it to mine where I've actually got equipment to work with. This would have gone as planned but I also happen to store my mustang there. My dad and I restored it 30+ years ago when I was a...

    3RZ / 2RZ Swap Notes

    I used this kit, it's currently about the same price as the crossover pipe you linked and with the addition of a muffler I had in my stash it was enough to do the whole exhaust system. I did buy one additional 22° bend to get the dump behind the wheel to land exactly how I wanted it. Pics of...

    I got some new tires and wheels, buffed the cab out, installed a stereo, converted a bunch of bulbs to led, got some clear lamps for front corners and front signals and finished it all off by committing mud sacrilege...I lowered it. 2" spindles up front and 3" blocks in the rear. I'm sure I'm...

    I've not been real great about updating the thread lately so this may be a bit disorganized. Over the last month or so of weekends I've finished up on alot of detail items. Added a 22° bend to the exit on my exhaust to get it to dump further from the bedside. I thoroughly cleaned out all the...

    I'm ashamed to have to admit, I haven't made much progress on it in the past year. I did manage to get rust repair on both front floor pans done before I had to take the welder back to my shop to work on other projects, leaving me with nothing at my mom's shop(where the 40 currently lives)...

    Wanted Misc mini truck parts needed

    ...It's been years since I've seen one at any of my local yards, I even had a hard time finding one with a early Tacoma to source the bell housing for this build. I'd love to pillage that truck for parts but a road trip to Utah for a sway bar and bump stops wouldn't be very cost effective...

    Wanted Misc mini truck parts needed

    Update: turns out I had a spare tire hoist from a Tacoma in my parts stash that I can make work, and the tailgate clips are still available from Toyota. I am still hunting for the passenger side exterior door mirror, digital dash clock, 2wd specific front sway bar, and 2wd specific rear bump...

    Builds 86 Xtra Cab Build (4Wheelunderground 3 link front, 4 link rear and 3.4 swap)

    Depending on what brand/product you're working with, many do have a allowable time period to topcoat without sanding. That being said, I never go for that option because you're basically spraying on top of a not fully cured base, which increases likelihood of reactions. You'd hate to go...

    Where did you go with your Mini Truck or 4Runner this week?

    I took it on it's maiden voyage to the carwash.

    Builds 86 Xtra Cab Build (4Wheelunderground 3 link front, 4 link rear and 3.4 swap)

    Those scuff pads will make life much easier when prepping tedious areas like the core support and inner fenders/floors. (It is still going to be unpleasant, just less of a pain in the ass than sandpaper). It confirms well to odd shapes and you can sort of wad it up and get into crevices you'd...

    Builds 86 Xtra Cab Build (4Wheelunderground 3 link front, 4 link rear and 3.4 swap)

    If you're wanting to blast the intricate areas strictly to avoid sanding, I would definitely not. You'll need to epoxy prime the bare steel, and the primer will still need prepped/sanded for topcoat. If you've got a halfway decent surface to work with, I'd get some of these scuff pads and go...

    Thanks! I've had many prior projects and have been through the first fire up routine before, but it never gets any less thrilling to hit the switch and hear one spring to life for the first time in many years. I've owned it for 3, and if I remember correctly the guy I got it from had owned it...

    My wiring harness finally made it here on Friday, and today I was able to get in some shop time and got it half assed installed. Still need to finalize some routing and secure the harness to my liking, along with making some more connections for the cruise circuit but I got to a point that I...
