    (Bought not built by me) J D 2.25 kit king 2.5 coil, front fenders tubbed for 37"s, KC rack with lights , full bumper front with winch and Baja design lights , rear bed trimmed with full metal bumper with swing out tire carrier, 5.29 gears with front electric locker. the truck had 40" inch tires on it when I got it and I put 37" KM#'s on.
    I got lucky and found this truck for sale and picked it up last month. Ive already been to Baja for a week and have learned I need to up grade the rear suspension with all the weight hanging off the back. looking into options now. My last toyota truck I bought brand new in 1981 lol.

    Here is a link to truck pictures and the first Baja trip.

    Damn you weren't kidding when you said already modded. :eek:. That's a bitchin monster.

    I'd keep a close eye on that spindle rub though. Might want to consider changing up the offset there.

    Are you talking about you backspace? Where is the rub I’ll be going to method bead locks soon so now is the time if it’s rim back spacing.
