Operation Crash Bandicoot 4x4 Swapped 05' Tacoma

Brute Force Fab, i have about 7-800$ just floating around out there... :/ I'd rather get it back and just pocket it, its been forever since he's responded, i know his father is dying of cancer or something but an update would have been nice.

 

Your mastiff on page uno? Nice truck, sir.

 

nah it belonged to the old man with the white single cab in the background. That dog is freaking huge..


Thanks man!

 

May be selling the '82. Idk, May be moving to Washington St. after graduation and no need for a truck on top of the trailer i'll be towing..

The build will continue, i've decided to keep the Hi-clearence and i'll have it hopefully by next year( got some CC's to pay off and shit from school).

 

Look what I found.....

 

a wild crash bandicoot? :O

 

Wash St eh? Some the best wheelin is up here in pnw man, throw a diff in it ull be good to go

 

yeah i heard.. lol I dont really want to wheel so much as travel/hike/ect. If i could convert cheaply, i'd be down.

 

Welllll i finally built a spout for my Military Scepter Gas Can... A year later. laziness is my thing now a days.

 

You still have mine brotha? If you pass through I'll $$$ pay up.

 

That 6 month break from TW tho... Not too much change on the truck during this time. Sold the 82' so no more project truck and im looking at mid-travel now as i prepare to Move to Arizona.

 

Wha?

 

Son, I think you need 4x4

 

nah 4x4 not needed. I think(very soft think) that I've figured out what my truck can do currently and after adding some new meats that should increase my capability a bit. Besides, im not going to half build something, alot of folks on here have a metric fuck ton of disposable income and that is what i lack at this time, this next year is going to be about getting out of college safely and moving to my new location. The mods on the truck can wait, being a successful (young)adult is on the plate first.

Tentative list of Mod to be completed

• Get some new tires
• Install my seat heaters(been slacking for like a year + on this)
• Finish paying for my Rear bumper
• Midtravel(Icon,fox or king whatever deal i can snag)
• New UCA's (Total Chaos or Camburg most likely)
• OBA/Snorkel

After all this is done, i should be good for a nice minute unless i run into surprise funds.

 

Just go LT in that case

 

Glad to see you back!

 

LT will cost moar than 4x4 conversion hahaha. MT is still bad but doable

 

Its been awhile haha.

Well im looking at changing up the suspension up front now.

my 285/75's will be here tomorrow (mounting them on saturday or friday)

My ARB is sitting at a nice 160lbs and it's caused a sag that i've neglected because it hasnt been a problem, now with 33's coming in, im afraid i will be rubbing (more than i normally should expect to rub). The back is fine, ive got like 4" in the rear to play with so im not worried there. Now my predicament,

My options
-Buy 700# coils (adding a winch in the future so may as well have the right coils on the first time)
-Buy 4" spindles and see where im sitting at after that ( a more expensive option but i wouldnt need UCA's at all)
-Just crank up my 600# coils that i have on my coilovers now and roll..

Im leaning toward the first option and i think the ARB will keep my lift low enough to where i can get within specs

Thoughts?

 

well whats your front hub to fender measurement now?

 

22 1/4 or something like that. Havent looked in a while. the rear is around 24 ish
