I love diesel motors and would love to have the good torque/mileage of a diesel motor. I blew my 3.0 and I'd like to swap in a diesel.
Some noob questions
Can I bolt up a diesel to my r150?
Whats the cheapest route to go for a diesel motor?
Is there a cheap route or is this gonna be wallet...
Hey I have a metal on metal sound almost like two pieces of metal are grinding against each other. The sound cannot be heard outside the truck only inside like the body is amplifying it. It only happens during hard breaking and quick reversing so I'm guessing when the front suspension...
I have a 95 pickup and love my truck. One thing I would like to do though is take 3-6in off the ext cab. Has anyone ever seen a truck with the rear of the cab chopped then welded back on shorter? I'm kinda basing is off the whole original body style ext cab where it was much smaller.
Ok so I was informed recently that Chevy never produced a 16.5 in rim with 6lugs. Now I'm onto buying some cheap wagon wheels the proper size. I found two types one 9.75 wide and one 8.25 wide. Which one should I go with?
9.75=...
I just flatbeded my truck and was wondering what my old one is worth. Theres no rot at all, one small dent and needs a little body work but could be whipped right into shape in a day or two. I have the factory drop in liner in perfect shape too. So whats it worth?
Alright so I am about 2 weeks away from ordering my SAS kit from TrailGear. I know a few people on here have advised to stay away from TrailGear but the general concensus I have gotten from here, Yotatech, and pirate is that its all the same. The price, goodies and free shipping is what won me...
So obviously my axle I get from any mini truck will be 27 spline if its stock. If I were to put 30spline longs in what else would I need to do? Change out my carrier in my third? Would I then need a different locker? Is it even possible/worth it?
So I've been searching for information on FJ70's here in the US. Its byfar my favorite FJ and would love to look for one for a project truck. Everywhere I read it says that very few were made in the US/north America and its near impossible to find one thats lefthand drive. Any information...
Alright so I have a near stock 1995 ext cab pickup with a v5 and 5speed stick. When I first bought the truck the idea was to make a decent rig on 33's with 4 inches of lift and mud tires. Now that I've realised I can break the IFS on a speedbump its time for a rework. I decided to go all out...
Alright well I plan on doing a SAS very soon and getting 63" chevy's under the ass end. I'm looking for some reasonably priced 36's or 37's and military tires seem like a good option. My truck never sees the rocks so I'm not so concerned about the sidewall flex. I know all the militarys are...
So I'm starting to make the list for SAS'ing my truck. I've been told by a friend with an 85 toy lifted 9 suspension on 40's that he's had no problem with his stock front driveshaft even flexing it out. Any thoughts? If I need a longer driveshaft is there any better solution than the expensive...
Alright so when I do my SAS I plan to lift my rear equivilent the right way with Chevy Springs so I can flex good. The problem is that when my flatbed is done in the next couple weeks I will have about 1" behind my rear shackle mount. Everything I have read says double shackle or move the mount...
Hello guys. I recently bought my truck 5 months ago. Its a 95 Toyota "mini" pickup with a 3.0 v6 and 5speed. I'm 17 still in highschool but the truck is a total project for me anyway because this is what I love. I'm in the middle of shortening the frame and putting on a custom flatbed right now...
