looks like you have a lot of work ahead of you

 

that's a list!

 

Nice, and thanks for posting up the prices....s'scribed!

 

yeah its going to take a while to get it all done.. but at least i have direction right? I still have my pick up so i need to find a runner with a clean body for cheap. i'll probably look for one with a blown motor or something. I'll keep building on my pickup for now, everything can be swapped over later. Gears and lockers are first on the priority list!

 

good luck

 

Sub'd!

Planning everything out like that makes things less of a headache. Nice

 

yes it does unless you have 3 engine worth of bolts then you dont have to worry as much haha

 

for Dual Cases you are gonna need two mounts so add one more your list

 

$7,000.00 in suspension is alot of money. I'm sure you could put a solid axle under it for half that price if not less. Any reason you want the IFS?

 

Whoa buddy, hold onto your credit cards! It's gonna be an expensive build!

 

thanks will do!

 

yeah more comfortable of a ride as a daily driver. and The ability to jump it! lol but at the same time still be a moab capable machine.

 

OK. I new there had to be a good reason to keep the IFS and drop that kind of money into it.

 

Saweeeeet!!! can't wait to see this happen!

 

ok guys i was really board at work today so i decided to further develop my paint skills. so here ya go... my dream 4runner playin on some slick rock in the sand dunes!

 

haha like the pic. but one question is it crawling in 2wd i dont see a front driveline haha

 

Haha he's got a point.

And you know your way around Microsoft Paint huh?

 

Wow. Now thats a build plan! At least you have a direction. Some of those parts are possible CL/YT finds. Save some $$.
