I have been having an issue with stiff brake pedal and ended up changing out the front calipers for some 95 v6 calipers (same as T100) I had. Needless to say something was wrong with my first set of leaky '87 calipers.

I had also installed a set of 1.25" wheel spacers to clear the calipers and now I get some rubbing when turning. I am trying to figure out the best way to fix this, I do plan on running the spacers full time to match the IFS rear axle I am prepping to install.

Not yet just been adding oil as needed. Planning on a re-ring this winter if it's still happening.

E-locker install

I picked up a used e-locker diff off the Classifieds on here over the summer. Big win that the e-locker had already been re-geared to 4:88's. I finally got around to installing it in the rear axle from the parts 4runner. Along with new seals brakes etc.

Sometime in August I did get the new IFS rear axle installed and the e-locker wired up. Works like a charm.

Fabbed up some 2" square tube sliders. Tucked them close for a possible piece of kickout tubing in the future.

Made a trip to Uwharrie with a buddy. Ran Dickie Bell backwards and Dutch John along with a couple other trails. The only carnage was from him rolling backwards into me. All-pro rear vs. stock front bumpers is not an even match up. Needless to say this speeds up the offroad front bumper.

Pics to be added.
