Media TOYOTA PIC OF THE DAY POST

[bikersmurf]

With the 1/8" thick steel tub in the rear it rides decent... the Air bags help too.

I felt destructive but the only thing I broke was the driver side mirror. I gotta start taking them off before I go wheeling. Must be on my 10th set.

 

[cruisedeisel]

No trails necessary!

Reminds me of a wheeler a guy was building years ago where he kept chopping the cowl to get it lower and lower... Looked really cool.

I think the guy died, I'm gonna have to think to remember his name... I want to see pictures of it again now.

Front tires are wayyyy to big for a Drag truck!

Nay, it's got a NASCAR engine in it. Even with solid axles it's rated for 165 mph or something. Not sure how it's gonna
make that left turn though...

But, but, but... It's got a blower!

 

[cruisedeisel]

The blower looks like E.T. with 3 eyes.

I found an article. Low range Atlas transfer case, @7000 RPM = 12 mph. And it has a CAMSO track
system underneath to pull it across rocks when hung up! That’s cheating high tech! Or low tech high cost?!

Anyone remember picking up a magazine because the Fj40 on the cover looked interesting. Then when you picked up the article the story was nowhere to be found inside… that’s how that link makes me feel. I have no clue why they’re cutting off the spare wheel stud off.

And exactly how not to use a grinder.

Nice throwback - had to cross-post it here:

Wow, the Bandi line! Wish I had access to these industrial type wheels/rims...

This guy is just outside Cranbrook on the way to Creston. Never did get back to me. Probably in Mexico from the money he makes on the Land Cruiser boom! But there is a lot of trucks there. More than just Land Cruisers
