FINALLY got back around to working on this thing after building a motor for my ae86 and trying to find a decent job (still looking).
anyway as she sits now.
-93 2wd frame
-92 4x4 cab and box
-85 turbo motor & full wiring
-87 5spd & case & rearend
-85 front axle w/ifs hubs & 60series rotors and 92 4runner calipers
-92 4x4 rear springs up front
parts acquired.
-all-pro hi-steer
-sky-man. shackles, leaf hangers, backing plate elim. kit
-front hi-pinion toyota elocker
-rear tacoma elocker
planning.
-all-pro rear springs
-4runner radiator support conversion to run composite headlights (have all of this)
-rear disc of some sort
-36 or 37" pitbulls
-lower gears
as she sits as of tonight.
start of my front hanger
thoughts if this is about the right angle the shackle should be at?
as of right now its only got the motor sitting in it, so I dont know if once the trans/case goes in if itll flatten the springs more? should I move the front hangers forward? They're only tacked so its no big deal to move at THIS point.
I wanted it rolling this week, and I want it moving under its own power by the time snow starts to fall.Not planning on using it in snow but just sounds like a reasonable goal.
ANY INPUT APPRECIATED!!
