Good Idea space-junk...done

toyospearo: Yeah, he would hate it though, he wanted to keep the truck stock for a while, to wheel it like that, but everything in the front was going out, and I just couldnt stop there!!! LOL

There will be some wheeling pics coming soon, as I am going to the lonestar toyota jamboree tomorrow, to break her in will be back sunday!!

Awesome truck you got there! It looks amazing! So how much would the total cost be for the SAS, lift, driveshafts wheels and tires if you did all the work yourself? Just so other people who can do the work themselves have an idea.

Wheeling pics!!

Okay here are some from the toyota Jamboree!!

These were taken in Gilmer texas at Barnwell OHV park on the Twister trail(pretty much a 4ft vertical wall)










I dont remember the name of this trail, but I was only one of three to get up without winching. It started at a 2 and we got mixed up and ended up driving up a 4!! This was my first time on a trail too!!









There are more on my cell phone, Ill have to upload them!! But all in all the truck did awesome, like night and day difference, Never had to winch, or be pulled up.

I did get some body damage going up the twister, broke my drivers side corner light, and peeled some rhino liner off my front bumper!! It was great, I dont even want to fix it!! LOL

Im trying to get my HEEP buddies to go up there, its really nice and clean, and its a huge park, about 4 hours away from me.

I towed the toyota with the chevy and got 10mppg going up there and 12mpg comming back. Not to bad, and the hills werent as hard as I thought they would be!

Awesome build! Are you going to put some sort of "dedication" on the truck?
Maybe a skid plate with a name and dates cut out....?

thanks nosfanatic, it did great...way better than I thought it would

86toy: Yeah, I love the looks of the boggers, and the performance is great with them...they are actually a good trail tire, maybe too stiff, but okay...In the mud though!!! AWESOME!!!

poynter: I dont know, I want to do something on it but Im not sure what...

On the road the tires do not rub at all... I think the rims are 3.75in back spacing (15x10).

When at full stuff, they do not rub if the wheels are straight, but when turning stuffed they do rub a lot on the fender/firewall. Nothing a sawzall and BFH wont fix!! I only cut a little bit.

The back does rub at full stuff, but I havent trimmed any there and it can be easily fixed
