The next victim (4th May 09 at 6:59pm UTC)
Well, the 4runner is getting stripped down to frame rails, getting a bunch of tube and a green sticker, so im going to have all these Toyota parts layin around with no home. I might as well throw them in my extra Yota. She is a 1984 SR5 short bed pickup. I will wheel the piss out of it, but wont kill it like I did with the 4runner. This truck is just to get me on the trail until the 'Runner is all buggied out. Im sure my old lady will wheel it too when I have my buggy done. Her she is bone stock with 57,000 miles on her. :scared:

Alright....we will have the $500 Toyota shootout when its done. Its just another Toyota. When this one is hammered, i'll go get another one for $500 and switch over the running gear. Thats the beauty of a Yota :fake:

I cut 12" out of the bed. Its so nice to work with un-smashed body pannels. I have some of the bed floor to finish welding and a little bit of bracing to finnish up. Just got some 3x2 box tube for my rear frame X member. I cut out the gay spare tire X member that was in my way. I will get most of the fab work done before I start transfering the other parts over. Its almost time to start on bumpers(something the 4runner never got).

This is before I finished the sides. Its just tacked together. I always weld the inside when doing a bob. It makes the outside look clean.

I sold the stock axles out of the truck. Shit, I sold them for as much as I paid for the truck. The axles out of the 4runner are in. Both axles need new gears. Im picking a set up from West Coast Diff tomorrow. Front springs and shackles out of the 4runner are in. (In case anyone wanted to know, stock toyota rears up front and a 6" shackle give you 5" of lift). Front still needs steering box mounted, shock hoops and dropped spring hanger. Im not sure what im doing with the rear yet. Might do the F150 springs turned around untill im rich and can link it. Heres what she looks like now. This weekend I put in the tranny and t-cases out of the 4runner in. Im doing another flat belly. A truck cab is way easier than a 4runner. I had to cut the floor, but nothing like I did in the 4runner....leason learned. Still need to finish up the tranny tunnel, but this it what I have so far... once the tunnel is done I can finish mounting the t-case crossmember. I need to move the gas tank sideways behind the cab and get rid of one of the stock frame crossmembers. It is kind of where my rear driveline goes. :booze: :boobs:
