    Works kind of gone crazy (as usual) so not much time…. Found a few hours this weekend. I removed a trailer hitch from an 80 Series, chopped it up and rotated it to provide the structure for the hitch. perfect size and drop for the project. It added a lot of weight to an already heavy bumper...

    Question on driveshafts and caster / pinion angles. Wondering if I need to do double cardon or not, keep in mind that I have a 5-6" lift. The front driveshaft will be about 8" longer in total -- 2" longer as I pushed the driveline back a couple inches, plus I have a 100 series transfer, so...

    Not on an 80 series axle. This is the rear, and the brake flex joint it mounted on standard tab, not into the housing, and the vent is a little lower, see arrow below. on the 70 series and 40 series, you are correct it has a bolt that is also a vent. on the front axle, the brake flex is...

    Burning metal. The top middle section above the license plate will get removed once everything gets burnt in.

    Not having much time in the garage lately, but was able to squirrel some time out there last night. Test fit the new apron emblems…. And got the front brake lines all made and routed. And even started working on the bumper.

    Got the new axles in…. And started getting all the brake lines done. In the front I think I’m going to run a line to a Central point, and then come up on the driver side. Typically an 80 Series had two separate lines coming down—one on each side. Probably going to re-gear so I’ll swap the...

    Here is the completed power steering line…. Compression fittings on both ends, that are the original Toyota lines…. Just had a couple hours in the shop tonight, but I got that power steering line in and the transmission lines in to cooler…. Baby steps.

    Got the nice painted axles ready to go in…. But while it’s out, realized it’s a lot easier to get to the power steering line and transmission cooler lines in place…. Took the power steering line to a local hydraulic shop to get them to make it the right length.

    Decided to put the final axles in before running brake lines, and getting this thing to start driving around ….so first step was to tear out these temporary axles. Then went down to the barn and found the old slee 6 inch lift front drop arms. I love the new arms that are available but this...

    Got a set of seats out of an M3. Little more fancy than the 330 I seats I had planned to use. Hoping the seats mount the same.

    Been meaning to share this diagram on how to use 2 relays to make the negative headlight Toyota harness to work for positive headlights (LED). To recap, the harness existing has 1 positive going to each side, seperately fused after it goes through relay. It has a negative going to each side...

    just talked to @kc_chevota and he said that the 2 other wires to the compressor are not needed. Evidently the compressor has a second pressure switch in it that are not needed.

    Working on wiring again. Trying to get the old air a/c - heater wired up. The Old Air system just has one wire going to the trinary switch, that then goes to the compressor. The Tacoma harness has three wires going to the compressor all from the integrated control (center of dash with all the...
