Sliders are on. I need to decide what tube Frt bumper to go with and get my quarters repaired.

 

Start gathering parts for a hydro assist/ high steer

woot

 

figure out overheating problem, remount sliders, 35s, 5.29s, lockrite f&r, bed bob, marlin front bumper

 

- Herculine the truck bed
- Secure the bed tool chest (already ordered)
- Borla Performance exhaust system
- ...and eventually 1.5 spacers for now

 

An engine without a rod knock...

 

In the two months:
Install new hannemann fenders
Put pro-comp stage 2 lift on (if it ever comes)
mount wheels + tires (17" ballistic jesters, 35" BFG KM2s)
Buy 89-95 tacoma "cut out" fender flares for rear, MAKE THEM FIT!!!
send it to paint (black)
weld up new front and rear bumper

it's going to be a busy couple months

 

Got my gear drive t-case in with 4.7s/twin stick, and new to me tranny with 90k/ shifts much better than my old tranny.Also installed TG crossmember.

Now i gotta start thinkin about movin steering box forward so i can move my axle forward then install hydro assist- get some 39.5 iroks and cage the beast.

EDIT: for pics
modded twin sticks because they interfered with the tranny shifter

 

this week: repair exh. mani. leak
next week: install OME rear leafs, measure for shackles
before end of year: install stereo/speakers, install shackles that aren't 9" long
next year: dechrome, tint side windows, replace grille, turn signal mod, replace tail lenses

whenever my money tree blooms:

regear to 5.29s with aussie locker in back
OME shocks all around
sliders, bumpers, tire carrier, under armor
POR-15 all undercarriage
2.25" exhaust
100 amp alt, 2nd deep cycle battery
aux lights front and rear
on board compressor
fabricate storage bin under bed where spare was
pull carpet, lay vinyl bedmat throughout
cb or shortwave w/antenna
aux fuel tank
overhead storage bin in cab
pull tailgate dent, replace rf fender
new paint
line-x rockers
roof basket

this will all take like 10 yrs so convert to biodiesel or hydrogen or whatever they have by then

 

Soon when my addicted off-road front bumper comes, maybe in a few months, get that baby on there.

Some Day: Totol Chaos suspension, so I don't have to worry about my stock suspension breaking all the time.

Dreams: Make my yota Trophy truck status.

 

Do an SAS, IFS to many dang parts.

 

rear sway tire bumper and save up for some prorock dana 80s
get the 4runner to pass the california ref

 

SAS rebuild
New tyres

2005 Hilux MK6:

-Just got the 2" leveling kit installed up front (strut spacers).
-The fender flares are getting painted and will be installed in the next few days.
-TRD decals
-Rear bumper

-I'd like to lift it more but don't want to screw up the handling or quality and don't yet have enough faith in the mechanics around here (North Thailand) to do a body lift on my baby and I am not at all set up over here for getting into much serious work. I need to look into ball-joint spacers to see if they are recommended on this model. I'd like it to have the Pre-Runner look or close to it.

 

The 60K mile service. Then probably the tundra brake upgrade. Hopefully not too soon though because I love my 33x10.50s but with the tundra brakes I would need 16" rims...

 

You see these 4runner fender flares? http://www.junglefenderflares.com/ne...special-order/

 

Mounting winch on bumper, mount roof rack (built and ready), and tire shopping (open to ideas)

 

front locker and longfields up front and a sec t case and iam done..........for now

 

Rims
Tires
Sliders

 

move my steering box forward, and build some sliders.
