Tanner757 highschool build

Sub here man! Its always cool to see another 17-18 year old build up their trucks! I can't help with the conversion questions though haha

 

You can press the hubs in but you will want to get new bearings etc. Easier way would be just take the spindles that already have the manual hubs in them and just replace your pre runner spindles. Would be a great time to do balljoints and tie rods as well.

 

So i started contemplating a sas
I texted a guy and he wants 350 for the front axle and leaf springs, does this seem to be a good price, its an 89 so from my research it shouldnt be a vacum kind of 4x4 those apparently started in 91 if im not mistaken

 

what axle is it? Toyota? Dana44?

 

Guess i forgot to mention that its a wagoneer axle dana 44

 

Tanner. I have my stock 4.10 ring and pinion

 

So its been a while but since my last update
I have bought a new to me
Trd v6 double cab 2003 thats lunar mist
And gave my dad my extended cab since he needed a new work truck



I have since swapped my
arb bumper
Lift from my extended cab
Toolbox
Radio
Linex bed linered
Weather tec window visors
Walmart all weather floor mats
4' firestik on a custom mount
And bought some rims
16x10
Other misc stuff
Im about to buy 295/75r16 bfg at ko and a 2" body lift from Roger Brown


Also ive ordered a muffler that should be in any day now
So that will hopefully be on my next weekend
Im sure ive missed some stuff
Ill update more as it comes in


Edit: oh stupid me the biggest thing
I finally completed my 4wd parts list
I got manual hubs, oem cv axles, front diff, front drive shaft and everything for 300 bucks
Now i just need a place that my truck can stay for a week or so or a group of people to help me install all the parts
I can do alot of it but im living in a condo and mainly need a place to do the conversion since the condo frowns upon any auto work in their parking lot

 

Noice, you still do landscaping? How many lawns and such?

 

Yea i still do, i do about 3 a week and im about to go full time at geico too

 

Sub'd

 

A 1" body lift would be much better FYI. The frame is pretty noticeable at 1". it should be easy to cover with sliders and gap guards in the bed but 2" might be overdoing it. 1.5 might be a compromise if you are looking for height.

 

Haha imma have to do something because my tires are hitting my fender/firewall at lock so i may do an inch or inch.5 and tub not sure yet

 

The less body lift the better. Kind of messes stuff up.

 

Yea ive decided to trim everything without any bl and if i still need clearance i may go 1" but i doubt any more

 

Cooool

 

Well got an alignment, inspection, and trimmed the bottom of my fender slightly
Also took the camper shell off for the time being
But its back to being my daily driver again
Everything works
Only thing its missing is i havnt pressed in the 4wd hubs into my abs spindles yet
That will be this coming weekend or the one after that

 

Great build! Its awesome to see other 17 year olds modding their taco. I need to get a second job to get some money for mine, I've been wanting an ARB forever now, just haven't had the funds. I am also open to donations

 

Haha yea man i hear ya
Been a few years and im onto my second truck now and it is still just as fun as ever
