I think i bought to much.shock. i bought 14 inch stroke shocks

 

Maybe i didn't. Any how got the chevy springs installed as well as adding more leafs to my front packa and im no longer sitting on the bump stops and gives me almost 22in compressed shock length and right about 30 extended.

 

Took it on a test drive today heard some clunking inbetween shifts and after looking looks like the ubolts might not be tight enough

Well time to do emissions and tag it again

 

Passed emissions again!

 

Got the front drive line put together and i clearenced my cadinal joint still need to measure the max angle. just measured and max angle is 40* where the zert isn't hitting and where it does hit it's at 35* doing to put a plug in so i dont have to come across the day the zert breaks off in the shaft.


But here it is while its getting balenced and straightened.

 

looking good 7m dude

 

Drilling the front flange sucked but it is done i had other flanges around with the correct bolt pattern and in 23, 27 spline. I just could not find my socket to remove the flange nut. So i clamped one of the flanges face to face, center punched my holes and used about seven drill bits to get to the bolt size i needed. By the 4th drill bit i was aware two wholes were off center but the last two bits and the use of the flange as a patteren also worked as a guide for the drill. I do say i wish all my drill bit's were sharp as the first few new ones i had..








Thanks for the compliment. BIgtrucknwheels

 

Forgot to mention. I got the new long splin slip from trail gear and the front yoke flange was a very tight fit to the front diff flange i had to pull it it togerher with the bolts in a criss cross fashion.

 

Ugh i found three broken dowel pins in my wheel hubs, i managed to drill the center of one with two of my smallest drill bits. But after that it dulled every bit i tried.

 

Got most of the exhaust finished using scrape pipe i had laying around

 

shnazzy build man, how you liking the 7m swap? and from what i hear isn't it harder to find replacement and/or upgrade parts for it?

 

I like it, ive been a supra fanatic for eight years now and have owned and parted sevral so for me parts were on hand or free.

 

Awesome build man!


^That solid axle looks soooooo goood!!

 

Thanks street lancer. I agree.i definitely. Prefer the straight axle look alzo for how much better they wheel & off road.

 

Finished up the exhaust for now. Well till i replace the stock muffler and tail pipe.

Also noticed today that the previous owner gutted the cat .... i had no idea and have passed emissions twice now...
All i can say is dam the old carbed 22r was a dirty little engine...

 

Woodys4x4. Counter sunk. The wholes for me so now they accept the toyota cone washers and on top of that i installed a metal locking nut.

I finished one side today will have to finish the other side monday or tuesday.
