Sweet Jeremy, we can chalk up another Runner to the list of locked 4ROC members. If I could get my hands on that 85' that you were talking about Jason, I would be up for going the double ARB route, 1,500 for the truck and another 1,600-1700 for the double locked kit, that seems like a good idea . Oh man I can see my attempt at a cheaper turck, getting very expensive VERY FAST.

Jeremy I can't wait to see your rig, that is gona be sweet. Keep it coming, the more you talk and the more you buy the more anxious we all get .

ok the SAS is officially postponed till further notice. The notorious 3.0 is having yet another headgasket leak so Jason and I are swapping out the engine hopefully very soon. I guess you could say this is now the 7MGTE conversion thread

NCSU-4runner

theres a nice pic, notice the 7MGTE badge on the engine.

Good luck J. Hope that engine in FL can be yours soon enough. I love that truck in the picture as well, I get all light headed just looking at it. a Supra engine in a SFA 1st gen, what could be better.

Keep us posed w/ the swap, take plenty of pcitures, I can't wait to see you tear up those MTs when you have 300+ HP under your right foot.

i've been looking at all pro's kit for a while but it seems that the only way to go is a huge lift. like 5 inches or more. do they have a set up where you can do like a 3 inch or something? and gl with the hg and swap(s).

NCSU-4runner

allpro has a 3in over stock leaf spring kit, its the minimum needed to use hysteer.

allpro SAS


see the first kit, lists availible leaf springs at 3, 4, and 5 inches over stock.

NCSU-4runner

you can pretty much call this thread over for quite awhile. going to pick up my new trail truck soon ( as long as its in good shape when i look it over )

I saw that truck at nc4x4.com also. Glad your getting it. What are you going to do with the front axle? Put it in my 94' PU perhaps

NCSU-4runner

by front axle you mean the one i bought already?

evilcow

Yeah. I was kidding though. Definitely not ready to take on such a job myself.

NCSU-4runner

well scratch the idea of buying that truck, a$$hole sold it out from under me. you can refer to this thread for details

customcruiser

that really sux but he said it wasnt worth trying to bring back from the dead although it didnt look that bad

so whats the deal with the sas

whats you gonna do with that axle?? If you are gonna sell i wish i didnt have mine already

evil you should get if he sells -- not a bad idea under that pickup its not that intense if you get somthin like the allpro kit (which is on sale right now -- and since today is my birthday i am ordering durning lunch)

NCSU-4runner

well now that im not getting that pickup ill SAS the 4runner one of these days, just not anytime soon. im most likely keeping the axle i bought for it. im so tired of not having my truck, i just want the engine work done and id be happy right now.

customcruiser

about how much did it cost to rebuild the axle?? did you buy a full rebuild kit or have it done or havnt done it yet??

i know allpro has a kit but dont think they include in sas kit

NCSU-4runner

payed 100 bucks for the rebiuld kit, its not that complicated to do but id recommend putting aside an entire afternoon to do it. also rebuild one side at a time. i took the whole thing apart like a month ago and its a little overwhelming having 50,000 bolts and stuff laying around and not really being sure how it came apart.
