1-piece weber adapter still working flawlessly.

Put new valve core in tire a little while back, it worked longer this time, but the dang tire is still going flat on me.
Probably mud/pebbles in bead again.

Still haven't gotten the pics of the hi-lift rebuild up yet.

 

can't imagine how you could get mud / pebbles/ bone/ gravel / grass / cement / other vehicles / stuck in the bead. yup. no clue....hehehehehe

 

Lack of beadlocks that why. lol. Unfortunately they are both expensive and not street legal in PA.

 

pffft.

do those new tires help that much in the mud pit? I guess they do, but you have to air down and you are gonna always have the problem of crud getting in there. I have 4 extra 31's, 2 in really good shape and 2 not-so-good. find some rims, throw them on, mud wit those and crawl with the ones you have or both or neither. what?

 

Bah mud season is over, doubt I will get to go wheeling by the end of the year, got another spot starting on frame as well. Otherwise, I'd probably be going to RC this weekend.

 

betcha RC would be awesome right now with less heat, bugs and definitely make for some awesome pics.

 

4.88 Front Courtesy of 3MPH Toy

Bout time I find a good deal on something. Now to just find a matching rear. I will have to convert the ADD shaft on it using my current one.
Time to start doing some reading. Should be simple enough. https://www.yotatech.com/forums/f116...l-tube-225215/

 

Sweet! I mean, you're already a menace to the high dolla Mud Rigs with your moderate toy.... now adding 4.88's? woot! lol. Are you not in Rausch, B?

 

why you gotta wait til it starts getting cold out for the big wrenching stuff? you crazy?

good deal mang.

 

That front diff is gonna be easy. The rear not so sure. lol. And no RC this time for me Chef, got another sketchy section of the frame to worry about.

 

DANG, sorry to hear that, B! I bet you wanted to go, eh? Well, you'll have that third in and frame buffed up in no time. And, well, look at it this way... maybe you'll save yourself from some freezin crises by staying this one out, right? lol.

 

so. this place is close. he's a toyota nut and we never met him. he has fab skills and we need some welding classes....got it.

 

Yup, took me 1/2 hour to get there, you maybe slightly more.

nah...just was doing some early morning searching.

keep coming up with lots of parts in Elizabethtown which is where I got my door and the guy goes on ebay (and here i think) as "toyotapartsdude or toyotafoolish" ...i think it's "partsdude".

other guy on here who may have a line on stuff is "drptmazda?"....i bought wheels off of him in Allentown and he knew alot of stuff. he was on Joe's thread a few times too.

 

If I buy another vehicle and use one for a dedicated trail truck, it will be another yota, 84-85 lets say.

 

I did send that guy an email though and asked what gearset was in the 3rd he has. I'd be willing to bet though it's either a 4.10 or a 4.30.

 

the guy emailed back with an unexpected diff ratio. Wonder if it's from a 4x4 or not because it doesn't sound right.
Only problem according to 4x4wire: http://www.4x4wire.com/toyota/faq/parts/
But 4x4wire never covers 2wd's for the most part.

 

Pete's my new best friend....he just doesn't know it yet...lol
