What a second you have a SASed built rig and you couldn't identify a rear bumper.....??

I'll give you a hint.... See the MC cut into the plate by the receiver hitch....

 

haha ok ok I see now...I worked a night shift last night. Things aren't working to well upstairs right now. I haven't slept in 55 hours. I'm pretty tired.

 

Time to get off Yotatech for a but and get some sleep

Jeremy

 

no kidding...in class now though. But I'm going to work on my 3.4 swap after class. Maybe not a good idea since i'm pretty exhausted. The whole starting it today makes putting off sleep a good idea IMO.

 

took off the rear hitch and bumper so I could finish cutting the rear brackets

and for my new bumper of course

the rear axle cleaned up and ready to weld

 

Looks good man, wish I had done the rear at the same time as the front.

Jeremy

 

keep up the good work

 

looking pretty sick dude.

 

Really looking forward to seeing and hearing what yours rides like. I'm waiting to pull the trigger on a rear leaf swap.

you should go for the ifs rotors and calipers too, big stopping power increase.

I have those same 33's and i love them, w/ the 2 middle rows of lugs siped and the outers soild. On snow, ice, mud, gravel, street anything those things stick. I've ran them down to 4 psi on 8" wide steelies and never blown a bead, haulin through the snow.

 

nice to know on those tires... How long have you had them (in miles)?

He has LC rotors and is keeping the IFS calipers, the IFS rotors will not work with a solid axle spindle.

 

^ what he said... I wanna see what that siping job you did

 

I've had them for over a year 1/2 now? like 10K on them


I was under the impression that i could run my IFS hub assembly w/ the bigger rotors, etc on the SA spindle or atleast change the wheel bearings to fit the IFS hub?

BTW, got those pics tomorrow when i go to school in the morning, time to go to work now. shoots

 

this is what i meant by the siping, just like any local tire store or les schwab can do.

 

What does that accomplish???

 

sheds water

 

I guess... looks like it does more damage than help, cool.

 

The only IFS Parts you can run by using LC rotors are the Calipers.

If you use a spacer, you can use the IFS spindles, but not the locking hubs.




I remember reading somewhere about a guy who put his caliper on the other side of the knuckle using a nut/bolt to fasten it though the ear.

 

hey, sry im new to this site, but i own an 89 4runner was looking to do an sas. this is my first vehicle and im only the second owner of this runner. picked i tup back in august for 1650. bought it of an old man who got toyota to install a new v6 3.0 blcok and all the jazz was done to it. only 40 000 on the block. but back to the sas will my front driveshaft work and does anyone no the gear ratio in this truck?

 

Congratulations on the truck and welcome to YotaTech!
To answer your questions:
1)No, your front drive shaft will not work.
2) Your vin will tell you what gear ratio your truck was built with.
Look for the sticker on the driver side door jam it looks like this:

The circled part is the part you are looking for

Take some time and search out the different forums on here to figure out all the details, but an SASed 4runner might not be your best option for a first truck/daily driver.

Get some moderate sized (32-33") tires under your rig and possibly even some sort of traction aid (e.g. a rear locker), then go explore and see what you like and how capable of a truck you really own!
