Updates on my original rebuild and a BIG thank You to all!!!

So almost 2 years ago I joined up on YT.com as I have a passion for Toyota trucks. I had recently purchased a '91 Toyota 4x4 and was looking for some help on what started as basic repairs and upkeep. First a PCV valve replacement, then a fuel filter replacement, then finally a top end rebuild (my original post is HERE but please don't add to it. In this time I have met many great people and have learned more than I could have ever imagined.

Well after some positive set backs at work (good for me, but bad for spending time with my Yota) I finally was able to get the major bugs worked out. After my rebuild I had some major PITA issues with my starter. Well I'm glad to say that I finally solved the issue and again learned some valuable lesson's. My Yota is back on the road, running and sounding great!

I owe so many thanks to so many people that I couldn't even start to list them all. Instead I'll give just one big "THANKS" to everyone here at YT.com. All of the members, staff, Corey for starting this great forum in the first place, just everyone.

Well below I will include some pics of my rig from earlier tonight. Nothing great as it was dark and very little lighting but I still wanted to show off what I had accomplished with everyones help!

STATS::
'91 4x4 std cab v6 3vz-e 5spd
31-10.50X15 wheels
dyed interior carpet
Rustoleum hammered Black painted interior
Bucket seats out of a Mitsubishi Eclipse
Custom audio with Dynamtted door panels, Pioneer HU, Pioneer speakers (check the sig), custom door pods hand made
Top end rebuild with Oversized Valves
Downey Ceramic Headers
New starter, battery, battery cables
2wd Flared fiberglass fenders
Clear corner lights
2" Body Lift
Sky Jacker Shocks on all 4 corners
Sky Jacker Steering Stabalizer

and Plenty More to Come!!!!

Future plans (real soon - as the stuff is in the garage)
New (to me) tires and wheels with a more aggressive tread and maybe 1/2" in height
new saw 25m torsion bars
MSD 6a Ignition setup
Window Tint
Paint
and the application of my YotaTech stickers now that she is worthy of their presence!









Here she is the night I brought her home! Bone stock and running on 5 cylinders


If you want to see more pic's click the link at the top and review her progression here on YT.com!
