DHFHades' 88 4runner build
got this a while back, traded for a 90 Cherokee...has a blown head gasket so I am currently pulling the motor to do a full rebuild...this build is going to be slow since I am poor white trash
first thing I did was stereo install
the sub that is currently in it
interior gutted to run wires
and some door pods I made
pods installed
start of the tear down
and where I currently am
I am a bit further than this now, but not much...I will try to keep this as updated as possible...any input would be great

I actually have thought about doing a 3.4 swap...but cant afford it atm. and yes, the jeep to toyota switch was a difficult one, I love my cherokees, but this was worth more monetarily so I figured why not...plus I really like the removable top

made some good progress last night, had a midnight brain storm and ran with it.
this was the result of my hard work
this was my idea that just happened to work, had this chunk of chain in the shop
and this was how I stopped the cams from turning..passenger side
drivers side
strange things work sometimes

I was kind of wondering what those spots were for, I saw them and putting a wrench on them never crossed my mind...lol

lol they are for turning the cams and if needed to hold the cam in place. say you didnt remove the valve cover, theres a tool that fits into the cam to hold it in place. i got one for like 30$ a few years back. but im sure they have gone up. was a MAC tool
