I saw your thread good luck with your build, Hope all goes as planned. I sure love my 4Runner

 

The reason I ask for the picture is becuse I have 1/2 rotation more to one side of the truck and I am trying to figure out how to make it evan. Thanks that picture helps.

 

Well I had the truck in the shop getting the AC Charged and so far so good It is cooling and working great with only 2 LB of R-12.

 

I am getting ready to up grade the brakes I saw a thread on the board but can not find it. I ordered and received the V6 calipers and FJ 60 rotors from Marlin Crawler. I also got the new longer brake lines in red. I still need the wheel spacers and paint to paint the calipers.

 

What size wheel spacers are you getting ?, i want to upgrade my front brakes also, but im not sure on what wheel spacers to get.

 

With the rims I have, I only need about a inch to clear the caliper. There is a place in SJ that I can get them for $40.00. I was wrong it is Fontana.

 

I painted the calipers and need the spacers still. Had one nice day to clean the garage and put away tools.

 

Well it is time for another up grade. Since I lifted the 4Runner 3 inches, when you make a left hand turn I have to back up to make it. I lost 1/2 of a turn to the right side and it went to the left side. So turning to the left is great but to the right sucks. This is because of the steering box and the connectors to the nuckles. I am going to install IFS steering box and over the spring drag link and tie rods. Pictures to come later. I have the box and need the other parts.

 

Some pictures for Eric. I now have three 4X4 and one has to go so this ride will be up on the block But I will keeping working on it until it sells.

Thanks Randy! Just what I needed to see. So you're still on 31" tires, and an additional 1" shackle lift over the standard Emu suspension in the front, correct?

Too bad about letting that go, it's a clean one.

 

That is right. It is not gone yet I will not give it away. I will take the time to do it right.

 

Truck is sold. I got good $$$$ out of it. FYI

I will miss it, not the lack of power on the freeway

 

I am discovering that myself with my own Gen1 '85 4Runner
