Niiiiiice.

Gotta start a damn internet truck club #tiregaters

 

I really like the fender bars for doing engine mounts and steering racks on some cars...

 

Works really well, the bar is plenty strong and that spot on the body right where the edge of the fender is has great support.

 

The weight isn't as focused as you're imagining it. A fat dude leaning over the side to peer into your engine bay would likely do more damage (still not enough to be noticable). A hard turn where the frame flexes and tweaks the front mounts a bit would throw everything off more. But all of that stuff springs back so even then no lasting damage.

 

i am hoping that the Eastwood company can inform me on what type of scope they used for one of their products, i need to access one and see what the next steps are for frame restore and then onward!

 

Salvaged yard pics...
97 v6 reg cab
Toyota told me my state has no problem...

 

but wait! ... there's more

 

Sometimes the setup like that doesn’t work to well when your working in the engine bay. Or if your tenders car support the load. I usually use those to pulling transmissions

 

What on earth ... did the engine blow? (2nd pic)

 

Looks pretty normal for an old Toyota to me, just leaky. People don't maintain Toyotas cause they don't break, so things like seals and stuff just get left to leak.

 

@JKO1998 would drive it

 

this truck had an abandoned on the road alert sticker from the state patrol
almost 240k miles
only a month older than mine on production date

 

did they overdo it with the extra ubolts on the springs?

 

His leafs look cracked. Or they are helper springs

 

i took a pic of the interior, that was clean as a whistle!! near mint it was!
but so far have misplaced the image
hahah

 

that big chunk of frame dragging the ground is not a fun sight to see firsthand

they must not have gotten the notice to get it checked, the same way i received NO notice to get mine checked

 

Had Toyota windshield still

 

@Speedytech7 you need any small stuff off an 85 300zx? I see the yard near my school got one in today. Plan on hitting them up tomorrow at lunch for some other stuff.

I wont have much time to snag anything big, or have my full tool set with me but if theres any interior parts or other stuff you need just lemme know.

 

I swear its not stolen
