So thats everything up to today. Next week im orderin up a 4" RC lift and goin to get a set of 35" BFG A/T's. Also goin to get a set of 3rd gen bucket seats and center console. Im constantly doin stuff to my Yota so there is much more to come

Comments and opinions are more than welcome.

 

solid axle it, and get half doors

 

I want to SAS it....but idk cause its my DD. Now's my chance to do it and im affraid if I dont I may regret it! lol And Im doin half doors....gunna pick up another set of doors when I get the seats.

 

im gathering parts to my SAS.

 

I found a guy in my town that has everything to do it! He has frame with a extra cab and SAS with rears up front and Chevy 63's....but idk if I wanna SAS it right now. I know I will one day but idk if I will now....like I said its my DD.

 

Little update on what im doin guys. Got it figured out now. So I still cant afford an SAS so this is what im gunna do. Decided to use a bracket lift for about 4" with the IFS. Then Im going to do Chevy 63's in the rear with an Elocker, ubolt flip and relocated shocks. So thats where I am right now. Hopefully my tax return will be in my mailbox when I go to work today. Hoping this will all be done by next weekend.

 

Lookin good, I like the two tone paint.

 

Thanks. I love my truck Yeah I like this paint job too. Finally think I found one Ill stick with. The Tiger print went waaaay differently in my head lol

 

Ok another update.....I keep switchin suspension Ideas but finally found one ima stick with. I found a guy selling a complete 6" Procomp lift for 86-94 trucks. Its bracket lifts up front with bigger torsion bars. Then 3" packs with 3" blocks in the rear. Its a complete front end with diff and all. He took it all out do to an SAS. For $500 bucks I wasnt gunna let it pass me. Gotta drive about 4 hours round trip to get it but thats ok....its up the coast line Should be a nice drive.

But another thing....I looked on Procomps website to try and find the kit on there and I cant find it for the life of me online. Im guessing they quit makin it or what but idk. If anyone has pics of a 6" Procomp IFS lift let me know.

 

I am glad that you 'unregretted' that immediately...
looked like crap, looks much better redone

 

I love the bumper you got man. And I agree with ocdropzone about the paint good lord that was nasty. But I love it now. what did you use?

 

nice lookin truck

 

B-yodaful: I love this bumper too! I traded the stock one straight across for it. Gotta love Craigslist. And for the new paint job I just went down to wal-mart and got black and OD green from their Camo Paint line. I love the paint job now...im keepin it this way. Idk what I was thinkin with the attempted Tiger Stripes.....It was only like that for about a day...my girl wouldnt even get in the truck

87hillbillyoter: Thanks man! I actually like yours alot too....I check out your build thread quite a bit.

 

Yeah I agree, the paint looks way better now!

 

IDK, I think it looked best with the blue paint & graphics on the side.

It's looking good though!

6" procomp lift?Never heard of it. Its probably the 4" with cranked torsion bars; gonna be a stiff ride. Stick with 33s & 2-3" lift; it should be plenty.

 

i like the front bumper also it really sets off the off road look

 

I know they make 6" kits for the 3rd gen yotas....but all the IFS is the same.

 

Ok so I got new tires FINALLY!! And I love them! These have been my favorite tires for a long time now and I finally got a buddy to sell me his with the nice rims.

33x12.50/15's







Stick out a bit far!

 

thanks man, new tires look awesome! i really like the look of your truck and the two tone paint job. yours is way cleaner too haha

 

Yeah I like this new paint job. I also love these new KM2s Not bad for $550.
