85 4Runner: Attempted Build

Do you have any pictures?

It does seem pretty narrow in and I never even thought about axle movement. I may end up getting the TG universal mounts.

Ugh FML. Too close to the leaf springs aren't they....

 

Yeah they will see a lot more travel that far out on the axle. I wouldn't worry about it too much now. Get the leaf swap done then pull the shocks, flex it out and go from there.

 

Si senor

 

You should weld up the diff that's going in the front while it's out.

 

Hells yea. 4 tire fires

 

Lol. I Mean he's got manual hubs... then maybe he wont have to ride the rev limiter on Daniel and hit it 20 times

 

I'm going to wait on a front locker. Eventually the Spartan will go in the front and I'll have an ARB rear locker.

But that shit would be so boring.

 

Those dumbasses still sent the lug nut order I cancelled. Apparently they were shipped to me, I did not know this, and since I did not pick up my order from UPS in time they sent them back. And now the lines are busy. Yay LROR!

 

I don't know why you have such shitty luck with them!

 

I guess it is guess inevitable for some reason. It kind of sucks too because they have some parts I need, but I'm too afraid to order from them any more.

 

Lol the rest of us were locked and none of us just walked right up.. and an ARB? I hear ya money bags. Why the rear though? I feel like if I want one to be selectable I'd want it in the front.

It has nothing to do with that lol. That is way further down the road in another stage of the build. After suspension and transfer case regear I'm going to be tapped out for a while.

So the plan is to burn the 33"s to the ground and get my moneys worth. Then upgrade to 35"-37", regear, and ARB (preferably front and rear)

I understand what you are saying about having a selectable front and that is probably the best way to go. Either way none of the above is going to happen for at least another year.

The reason I would like to have a selectable rear locker is so I can enjoy it around town more. I already drive it around town a good bit, but I like having an unlocked rear when mall crawling.

In all honestly if I could get the 4Runner into DD shape and be able to wheel the shit out of it, I would do that. 3.4 swap etc etc

And look who's talking over hurrr calling me money bags :roll eyes:

And the best part about LROR fucking up my nonexistent order? It shipped through 4WheelParts.

 

Went to SBC Offroad today to lay out the plans for my T4R

Scheduled shop time for the end of October

 

Yes but they aren't great.




Here's an idea for rear shocks if you don't mind cutting a hole in your rear floorboard. I'm gonna do it to my truck when I go to 63's.

 

He already has a nice rear shock setup.

 

You are going to love high steer as much as flexy springs. It just feels so much better

 

Talking to me?

 

OP... And I guess you too
