i HAVE A FEW QUESTIONS
My wife and I are heading to Denver Wendsday to visit her brother ,I will have a little room in my truck to run some parts !!
And even more room coming back and it wont be a problem at all..I do have a Diesel if need be I can haul aswell . WE WOULD NEED TO MAKE ARRANGEMAENT ON THE FLY ..
Also this is a big deal for me while we are up there I would consider having some one put her lift on for me .We have a 91 fj 80 , and a 3'' OME setup and some new tierod ends , It is a complete system and seemingly not to bad at all to install..
And the last Question , I have a trade deal on some new 35 s bfg a/ts .. Are 35s to big to run pratically with that size lift??
And if so how many out there would want to upsize to 35s, If I take the deal and would rather have 33s !! I do have everything here and can have the wheels and tires done and everything ready to go !! There are a few more things I would like to have done to it aswell if some one would like to make a few bucks !!
LET ME KNOW WE WILL LEAVE AFTER WORK ON THE 4/ 28 /10

Im working on some brownie points with the misses,This way when we come back She will be sooooo pleased she will let me order some goodies for the Tercel !!
Thanks guys

Welp The 35 were new but looked like the tread on my moms mini van so that is a no go, I did get a bunch of info on mud about running 35s w/ this setup and there are a few things I am going to need to consider though .....
Also does anyone know any cool spots to stop a look around on the way, stores, shops etc.. We are taking the scenic route this time and are not in a hurry.. I will be stopping at Jimmys 4 x 4 in Cortez so.... I will be looking to have a hydo assist set up , hi-steer and some 63'' chevy springs off a early 90s 1/2 ton truck
if any one has any of these mention it and I will be glad to buy them from you before or after the trip .. OOOHHH yeah I am still in search of some good, matching 33s and maybe some 35s if the deal is right .. THANKS

Kinda out of your way but if you turn and head west out of pueblo till you get to pinrose there is a cool trail you could walk. It's a 4 wheelin trail but could be walked in about an hour or less. Trail is in the shape of a horse shoe kinda so you would end up where you started. Trail is called "Independance Trail". Absolutely beautiful.

Welp I am here , and there is a cool Toy everywhere you look,
Everyone has said this is the mecka of the industry and really seems plausible .. We havent been out playing yet, but it is still early.. I have a list of Toyota shops ,clubs, garages and whatnot , I am trying to get a bunch of swag to raffle off at our first event to have some fun stuff to do , or give away as prizes!! Anyhow we made it , the diesel is at Firestone , we burnt the brake fluid and and that caused some caliper damage and of coarse the rotors were smoothed jacked up.. SSSOOOO....BRAKE SYSTEM OVERHAUL !!! of coarse !!! Thanks I am on a family pc but will try to post some picts soon !!

Yeah Slee is in Golden Colo. it is a very , cool little spot we spent some time there today . Most of the addresses you put in on the navi is a p.o or private address so today we didnt get to pick up much from the offroad shops .We are hitting it up tomorrow and picking up some stuff from craigslist . There is a Toyota swapmeet her too ..not this weekend though .. Anyhow I will check in later ..

Will the rear leaf springs out of a 89 1/2 ton give me the extra spring I am looking for on the rear of the Tercel ? ( a 63" chubby) What years should I be looking for ?? And right off hand does anyone know what is the lenght on the stock spring? Reason being , it appears there has been some previous modifacations .. I can dig deeper just was hoping for some previous insight ! And maybe some extra eyes ! I believe we have decided it is a early model truck running gear 79-84 ..

The springs from 1988-present 1/2 ton trucks should all be 63's.
lets see if this picture works.

Should be 3 leafs and an overload so 4 total. You can also use rear s10 springs off of the older square s10's. I have these on my fj40 and they flex like crazy.

One more thing on top of the fuel cell I got , It has a 3/8 fitting that vents with a cute little tube . Shouldent that be a check valve with a cute little vent tube , it shouldent be able to drain at all should it ..And as far as running this thing at different spots and states , Are there any know restrictions for mounting a fuel cell that would keep me from participiating anywhere ?
