    I simply welded the flange to the pipe so now all I have to do is unscrew the o2 sensor instead of fighting with those stupid studs. I'm pretty sure I did it on both of them, as well.

    Just had the shop put my new OME kit on. 833, dakar w/ AAL, camburg uniball UCAs, BPV, cut off the exhaust since that bracket seemed to put the tail pipe right in the way of the leaf. Drives nice, just a bit stiff in the front. Next up, some kind of bumper/winch combo. Before and after shots to start.

Put some washers on as a makeshift drop and it helped slightly. The bearing is shot, so it and a new stake nut are on the way. I've also ordered the drop bracket to help. Debating a single piece drive shaft now. It's only money, right?

    yea. I figure it will be the best route to go. Considering my truck is already a 3rz it would probably cause my mechanic a lot of headaches and would cost me a lot more $ if i went with a 5vz. If I still am lacking power after i regear i will probably throw a supercharger on it. I don't need a crazy amount of power to make me happy.

    Anyone know where i should begin looking for a low mile japanese import engine?
