4x4 Wanna Be Part 2 - SAS Toyota Axle/3Link

Sweetness

 

Awesome! I bet Kaleb's all excited.

 

Last night while we were breaking in the cam he was grinnin' like a jackass eating briars

It should be ready for him to drive home tonight... I think she came out pretty good for a couple of rednecks in a garage

 

Also... I had to replace my MAF sensor and my upstream o2 sensor to get the Prerunner inspected. The transmission hasn't been fucking up, just not getting a good mixture... this puppy has got some pep again!

 

Haha I bet so. I need to replace my o2 sensor too. My check engine light has been on for a while.

 

It's well worth the money... I wish I had done it a long time ago... I could have saved a pretty penny in fuel

How's the wisdom teeth Mike?

 

Not so bad, I would kill for some real food though. Can't chew anything for a few more days.

where did you get your lift kit?

 

You may need a coat hanger also But it can probably be done without one.

 

EBAY, it's a 6 inch Trail Master with 882 coils and 6 inch blocks in the rear. I took the lockers out so it will be light, resulting in better traction

 

Phillips head screw drivers usually work better when installing this lift, but a flat head will do

 

I like the lifts from Amazon that you can install with an adjustable wrench. QUALITY.

 

Well just a little update on the ole Prerunner...

We went wheeling Memorial Day weekend and had a great time, everything went smooth Saturday and Sunday morning.





Sunday evening we went to run Daniel again... get all the way up to the first ledge (pictured above), put it into 4lo and the front tires were not pulling. The transfer case is stuck in 2wd and all I have is hi and low range. I'm going to try and pull the cover and see if something just popped out of place. Worst case, if I end up pulling the case, I'm going to replace the gears with chromoly gears/shafts.

ALSO, I bought a 91 Toyota Pickup. It's a 22re, 5 speed, 4wd, extra cab... Things are about to get interesting again

 

Whats the plan for the new yota?

 

Nah, I am going to keep everything yota

I think I'm going to do 3 inch springs up front/63's in the rear, 4.7's in the case, 4.88's (Yukon Grizz Lock in the rear and Spartan in the front) with 33's. I don't know what the plans are for armor yet and I will be faced with the choice of tubing out the bed or keeping (possibly bobbing) the factory bed. I'm wanting to bed liner the truck silver to some-what match the Tacoma.

The goal with that truck in a DD and I can keep miles off the Tacoma and that I won't feel horrible if it were to get damaged. If I have to re-do the case in the Tacoma, I'm going to go ahead and bullet-proof the case and probably go ahead and do chromoly front shafts

 

Well since you want to keep it all yota, you could put the tacos axles under the pickup and put the 80 axles in my driveway under the taco

 

Or put the 80 axles under the pickup. . . your choice

 

Yes but with a single case it should be fine. The only time it will pose a problem is with a short rear drive shaft. There's a few people runnin them without any issues already.
