    I was heading home.
    If I ever pass you or any of you and it seems like I'm stuck up, I'm not. I'm usually on the phone and just don't notice so ease honk at me so I can wave. ;)

    Lol. My neighbors are amazed as well. Luckily they are very cool about all the grinding, banging and welding that goes on over here. Lol

    You forgot, they also tolerate the number of built trucks occupying the street. Last time I was at your place was when you were converting Masa's truck. Between me, Abu Mark, Masa and your buddy with the 1st gen taco, we occupied your street for hours hahaha.

    IFS Toyota box, PSC SP1200X pump with there own pulley, oh and sell the D44 and get a D60, even if the one you have is billet :p Really, a D44 just doesn't belong under these 2nd gen trucks.

    I've broke every single component on my D44 that is FULLY built to the hilt and I'm running 36" tires on a 1st gen... Good luck keeping wrenches off that axle.

    Even a ball joint 60 is 5x stronger than the d44. King pin is best imo, but not the only axle available.

    The steering box is from an early IFS Toyota truck that was tapped. I seel them now and the PSC pump was a prototype that they don't make any more but I have a link on which one will work now. I'll have to find it and get back to you.

    You gonna sponsor them on this truck? Your shifters are a work of art but I need function first then form.

    I've since cleaned it up a bit. I go for function first then looks. Can't see spending money of stuff just to get looks. It's got the have a good function first.

    I chose these knobs because of function first. They are all really cool when it's hot outside, and the smaller ones fit perfect when the trans shifter is in low and the crawler is in high with the t case in low. they all want to share the same space and because of the shape and size they can without hitting each other.
