I like how the hoop is bent with the same contour as the side sheet metal. 
Thanks, but unfortunately, school is taking a big chunk of my $$.
I may go with a solid axle if I decide to do a 4wd conversion, but I don't see this happening any time soon. 
Thanks though.

5. The 700R can be built to withstand some serious power
6. Automatic would help in the rocks
7. R151F's are hard to come by and expensive when you do
Disadvantages
1. I won't be "all toyota" like I wanted to
2. I'll be a "toylet"
3. 3.4L->R151F->23spline case->23spline 4.7= sick
