that is a great looking truck I love it I want mine to look that clean

 

X2-that thing is pretty dang sweet looking, sounds like it functions just as well

 

The 3rz is by far the best modification I have done. The difference on the Rubicon between the 22r and the 3rz is night and day, I highly recommend it. The Elockers are a little work also but it's so worth it to be able to switch the lockers on and off when you need them. Marlin's lift with 35's are a perfect match. You will get a little rubbing on the back of the fenders but no big problem.

 

wanna come put a 3RZ in my 81 for me!!!

 

I'm a little too far away for that, but it's easy if you do your research.

i've been trying to track down a 3RZ for mine for about a year now

 

8T3, How does yout (beautiful!) truck ride on the road? I'm asking because your shackle angle looks to be a little on the steep side. Any chance we could see some close-up pics of the shackle angles?

 

tryin to post some pics however the jpg file has to be smaller than 48KB? all mine or 5 times that. is there a way to increase the size limit of the pics allowed?? thanks for any help i am a new member.

 

Here's my '79 :

I love her DEARLY, but she has to go. I need the money and the space.

 

I post most of my pictures at 800x600. Right click your picture, open with Micosoft picture manager, edit, resize, file-save as....

 

That truck is so beautiful I actually got a tear in my eye!!!

 

yep ..real nice truck .

just a quick question .. why are there no tiedown hooks on the bed ?

 

The truck rides real smooth on the road. Shackle angle has almost no effect on ride quality, it merely locates the rear of the spring. The bottom shackle bolt moves fore and aft, about 1/2" on the road. The angle is important when you start talking about articulation. Mine is the standard Marlin 2" back,6" forward with the front hanger 1" forward. Your choice of springs and shocks determine ride quality. Anyway, here's your pics. And thanks for all the compliments.

 

I didn't like them.

 

i like that tie down kit...where did you find that?

 

8T3, nice rig! What color is that? I want pretty much the exact suspension setup you are running.

 

Hello to all..I am new here.I just find this forum looking for some info about a first gen Hilux.
So I hope someone could help me to identify this truck. It's a shortbed but this one looks very original..Sorry but I do not have a better picture


Congratulations to ALL beautifulls trucks right here

 

Period aftermarket stepside - maybe a dealer install.

 

Here is some pics of my truck.








Here is a few pics of it in primer gray.
