I absolutely love the retro Toyota stripes. If I can EVER get fresh paint on my rig (professionally done, not my own "just to prevent corrosion" work), stripes would be a must.
Dang...!!!
Sooooo this is so great and right out of my imagination for what I need… except that cup holder would be a vent for my diesel heater that I can plumb to the tent up top hmmmmmm can’t wait to see where this goes manSingle best console I've seen to date for the 60 series - blends to the point of looking factory!

Not moving forward. Not enough interest and the cost of the units IMO would be out of most budgets.

Why is there a shoulder seatbelt mounted at the back hatch?
That is wild, I wonder what does a 4cyl LS even sound like?
I wish someone would make a console like this... I feel that even a 3D printed one could be viable. I'd love to use all that dead space up front functionallyNot moving forward. Not enough interest and the cost of the units IMO would be out of most budgets.

Wow, taking 24 leafs out (12 ea side) should lighten her up a little8000# 60 series getting a rear coil conversion. Front Range Diamond rear axle with my TourFlex springs and Dobinsons MRR adjustable shocks with remote resi. These are the same rear springs I'm running on a 9000# 200 series for almost 3 years now.
MASSIVE REAR LEAFS REMOVED (YIKES) - 1" reverse rake in the rear and rode like ... well .......
1.5" rake now ( springs will settle 1/2 0- 3/4" )

It wasn't enough spring...Wow, taking 24 leafs out (12 ea side) should lighten her up a little![]()
price point VS an LS3? MPG?I'm on the list to receive one of the first units produced. No lead time details for the public yet, but this is going to be a fun and peppy swap once it happens. Will be able to mount all the standard transmission swap options to it.
If configured for a performance application, this bore and stroke combination could produce well over 300 horsepower and nearly 500 lb-ft of torque!
I've worked with BPE on a few other projects and the quality of the motors, components and customer service is top notch in my book.
I have requested two long block crates once available. Will put a H55F behind one and a built 4L80E behind the other.
