New pics w/suspension lift

Updated pics of the 89 Toyota since I originally got it:









Since I last posted pics I have added:

Bushwacker Fender Flares
Lund Bug Shield
Aisin Manual Hubs
Power Stop drilled and plated rotors
Pro Comp stainless steel brake lines
Tinted rear windows
4" Superlift Suspension
33x12.50x15 WideTrack MT Tires

This thing is a beast compared to what I am used to driving. I barely cleared a 7'6" car wash this morning.

I almost spent my budget and am down to my last $1000 I want to spend on it. Trying to decide if I want to do an ARB/TJM Front Bumper and some SR5 seats, or 4.77 gears. I've already got a spare driver door waiting to be painted and installed.

Thanks. The RX7 went off to it's new home in Indiana this morning.

I am leaning towards doing an ARB bumper and a set of SR5 seats with my remaining budget. I rarely ever am on the highway, so I think I can get by without the gears, for now at least.

Thanks! I am ordering an ARB bumper Tuesday. I am anxious to get it installed. Probably going to be done after that for a bit. I hate to spend more than I told myself I would.

I've come to realize that. My wife, however, she's a different story

With the last grand..............Is doing an SAS not an option???

I would get a junkyard front axle, longs and gears and then do a locker later but that is just my thoughts. I have not followed any of your other posts to know if that is out of the question with you.

Gears are nice on the highway, but they also will give you an awesome crawl ratio off road, I think it would be well worth it.

[sarcasm] Is that a TRD sticker? It's a bit hard to see, maybe you should get a bigger one.[/sarcasm]
