Great build!!!sick pics!!!!

 

Dam player ... I can't comment on just one thing that's sick. The whole build blows my mind... Great job.

 

I got my new taillights mounted and my CB antenna again. The taillights are from a tractor trailer, I do have plans for turn signals. I can't wait to bob this thing!

 

Went snow wheeling with a sad ending. Driving in the snow the engine lost all power. So now I'm left trying to figure out what happened. I also destroyed my sidewall on one of my tires. Brandons purple tacoma with SAS D44 3 link and Symons extra cab that is LS power and D60s links F&R. Luckily enough, Symon gave me a tow from Payson to Phoenix to get my runner home.

 

Sorry to hear about the engine. You will get it figured out in no time

 

A few weeks ago we ran Pyeatt Draw

 

I got the truck up and running again. My fuel pump relay was corroded (on the ORS harness) and I replaced my EFI relay and fuse (both on the drivers kick panel) I unplugged every connection I could and she fired up. I lost my TG resovoir cap, they don't sell replacements, a 60s Chevy gas cap works nicely. This time I included a safety chain.

 

Nice wheelin pics! Always a bummer bring towed out, but glad you got it covered!

 

Brandon and I ran Anaconda, well half of it. Anaconda is a tight trail with a supposed 4.5/5 We got half way up and brandon broke a drivers side hub (no spare) then bent both rear leaf springs, and we believe his rear locker broke. So, we took the exit half way up and left.

 

Picked up a crawler hauler. 2002 dodge cummins sport.

 

Damn your rig is spicy!!!

Came up on this using the illusive search button. Glad I did.

 

Thing is Sickkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk!

 

Went wheeling at Table Mesa on Anaconda, Predator, and Lower Terminator with Gabriel. I ended up taking a line on LT and my bald, muddy MTR's didn't like it. Muddy tires slipped and tried throwing me over, luckily Gabe was there to save me.

 

Nice pics as always!!

That chop top xj is cool...

 

Alright, at this current point in time the plans are as follows;
-install fuel cell, I don't know how much more the stock tank can handle
-install roll cage, 4xinnovations!
-bob about 1 foot
-install front bumper
-install rear bumper

 

I got my front bumper put on, still need to run some frame side supports. 39" BFG Projects (KRT's) that I got for a smokin' deal from Potts racing. I bobbed the bed 12". and I have begun a pickup tailgate swap.

 

Well I made a little "boo boo" on the final obstacle on Anaconda. Fender, door and cab took a good amount of damage. Door still works though. I need to hammer the door to get the window to be able to roll down all the way. Other than that, I'm loving my 39's. they get great traction in the rocks. Just not when its wet outside. Hopefully going to make it to the Parker poker run this year.

.

 

Well a few new exciting things. I picked up a parts truck for my to fix my 1987 4x4 pickup and it came with a nice cab. One thing lead to another and here we are. I'm in the process of reinstalling all of my wiring and making a lot of fixes to things that I've been neglecting. I've added new body mount bushings and a 4crawler 1" body lift to help clear my RAD triple sticks. Lots more work left, but it should be done in the next couple of weeks.

 

Well I finally got around to trimming my rear fenders so I could finally go wheeling. I've done a few very simple crawling trails to make sure that everything is working properly. I need to trim the rear fenders a little more, and then get a rear bumper to attempt to keep her looking nice.

 

I broke down a few of the engine updates into a few posts to make it easier to explain everything. I sold my 3RZ. I picked up a 1JZGTE VVTI from a JZX110 from Japan with 45k miles. Installed an Act clutch, Xcessive motor mount adapters, DriftMotion light weight pulley, and a rear sump oil pan. Apparently I didn't get a picture of it, but I also installed a Future Fabrication downpipe.

The passenger side motor mount had to be notched for the turbo oil return line.

These are the motor mounts I used:
