Just picked this up recently. Just got the tranny rebuilt, and trying to figure out why its running weird. This is how I bought it, but Im in the process of removing and adding stuff. The wheels is one of them that are coming off (too wide for right now with those 31x10.5s) lol.

 

Keep the tires n get rims that are not 15 inches wide.

 

Agreed!

Trucks almost back together. 21" to the bottom of the frame, the skid will hang a little below that. Nice and loooooow.

Yup thats the plan

 

My 86 turbo truggy

 

Welcome to Yotatech! Oh, and cute kid! lol.... OH YEAH, .... and what Teuf said about the rims, DITTO! I keep hearing "it's Hawaiian Style"...... Hawaiian, Cambodian, ..... Red-Nexican.... doesn't matter, it's "Makes NO LOGICAL OR PRACTICAL SENSICAN" in my book. But they look like really new tires, good shape... so yeah, get em on some Summit Racing Soft 8's.... you're in biz! lol... Actually, curious...what rims you going with?

PS> Nice Truck! One more thing you'll hear, ..."Ditch the Running Boards"... but if you like em, don't listen! lol.

Have a good one,

Mark

 

Thanks for the welcome Mark! Im planning on going with some 15x8s something plain n simple kinda like this.
Yeah tires are almost new so im keeping those for a while. I already took off the end caps of the running boards looks a lil better. I might keep them on for now since my lil girl can get on that way but we'll see what happens

 

Nightmare of a 4wheeling trip. Haha fell into a deep hole covered with snow and ice. Passenger side tires were 100% under the mud, up to the floorboards. Thats PA for ya. Bent the crap out of my bumper getting yanked out. Chevy finally did it after 2 dodge 2500s couldn't do it.

 

Ahhh, yes, see? The lil girl factor! lol. Mine are 20 and 18 now, .... not a problem, BUT, I kept this lil rope ladder on cables bolted to my pass. seat in there on my lifted 86, ....then she would just roll out the rope, climb in, roll the rope ladder back up and VOILA, solved! lol. It had nerf bars I took off, cuz they're pointless and heavy(they were for me) and she couldn't reach those either/anyhow! hahaha. Oh, and they also make these scissor steps, ...very cool! I had them, stock, in my 70CST blazer. They swung down with very lil pressure and hung around 8" lower than the floor boards. Worked great too. But again, if you like them or feel they're practical for you,.... pfffffffffffft, ...who cares, keep em, right? lol.

 

Yup so true, first need to get in running right then ill see if I keep'em or not lol

 

Hey Project.. I do hit the Kern quite often, .... haven't for a couple years just due to schedule and THIS FRIGGIN RIG! LOL.... but I'll probably hit the Kern this year, for sure, and maybe you could cruise up there with the lil bittle and do a lil wheeling? I don't go crazy, but I do get into stuff that many of my homies in their rangers, etc., wont bother with, lol. Usually set up camp at Upper Peppermint!

 

Yeah for sure im down for that. Wheres peppermint?? Never heard of it? Is it up in Gorman?

 

That thing looks sick. I like the bogger/tsl tire combo.

 

not sure if anyone remembers the pics of a buggy i posted a while back, but we've made a good bit more progress so i though id post a few pics. hopefully itll be done in two weeks, maybe less.

i think someones got a thing for push bars! those meats would look good on the first gen! nice find!

 

Haha it found me! lol and yeah the push bar was already on it. and i do agree that the KM2's would look good on my 4yellow but i have 33's for that instead! lol

 

Nice!!! KM2s!! Thats a plus!! Looks like you've got quite a collection of toys...

 

Yeah you can never have too many lol haha im turning into a Toyota hoarder!

Well a little photoshop work left me with this. I think that I am going to do it.
