Slap my name on them!
Consider yourself slapped..
...I mean, I'll slap your hub.
What I'm trying to say is they're yours.

So I was laying under the Tacoma last night watching the trans fluid drain out of it, and was thinking about how to raise the drive-train on this thing. I was looking under the hood and it looks like I can squeeze about 2"s of lift until the engine hits the hood, and can probibly raise the trans about 1". After chopping the frame rails the next interference point will be the engine and if i can get some room in there, that would be sweet.
You can level the drive train too.
you'll be raising the COG too. prolly worth it if you can flat belly it.

Yea the COG deal is kind of a trade off, yes it will be raised however if i lift it higher to get some up-travel that will suck for the COG as well. John: yea im going to have to do something to get it level if i toss a RHD drop case in it. Right now the lefty has 10* of clocking built into it, and with the stock gear drive case ill have some stuff dangling down below the cross-member again.
Either way I'm sure ill roll it on the shakedown run.

I got stuff dangling below my crossmember. You just have to try not to bang it on stuff.
Flat belly helps break over and could allow for you stay lower and not turtle.

I was talking to an acquaintance of mine who does auto body work and painting vehicles and what not and was asking how hard it will be to rattle can a truck in the ivan stewart style paint job. He was saying it should not be that hard, only take a weekend and if I take my time it should not look like ass. He's going to let me borrow his sander, so i was having some fun with Microsoft paint while on a conference call this morning, should look pretty accurate with my painting ability LOL:
Sweet! Do it.

Thought about that however this truck bouncesoff way too objects and it will probably peel off.
Hey Geoff... The 60 axles are unmolested in all of their stock goodness. That is unless you start counting rust from the Illinois winters. The arms are sitting on the bench, but go with the axles.
I can only add to the options with the gear drive vs flipped axle debate: find some knuckle balls, and build the flipped housing out of the rear. You will have a housing for either transfer!!

Sweet!! Todd i like the rear steer idea... LOL
Derik, Good call, I remember that now. He could use 80 balls and run 80 stuff... That would be sweet!
Having 80 balls doesn't sound like fun.

Asian Won Ton's on the Tracroma grasshopper
in an odd coincidence (ok, it probably isn't), I may have a suitable candidate for some of the front 80 stuff...
