1996 3.4l m 4x4 extra cab taco restoration

Awesome--thanks for the info and answers. Im a sucker for a nice undercarriage (lol)

I saw it in your thread but can't find it...what head unit did you get? Pioneer or Alpine w CarPlay? Also did I see a powered sub as well?

 

$280 Alpine Ilx w650 Digital Multimedia Receiver with CarPlay and Android Auto Compatibility

Alpine Ilx w650 i got a screaming deal on it. I go the

$298 PWE-S8 Compact Powered 8" Subwoofer System

PWE-S8 sub under the driver seat. Adding wireless CarPlay shortly via adapter. When the original paint starts to come off the sides I’ll do the bodywork, but it seems like a waste and having been through it a few times with other cars, I just prefer a car when you’re not too worried about the finish

 

Drive shaft love.

haven’t been able to drive it much with the new suspension because of the driveline vibration. This should fix the issue hopefully

 

Help! Weird grinding noise pulses after letting off the gas at high speeds, started after the lift. Planning on shimming the carrier and replacing the center bearing but this seems different. Most noticeable in 5th

 

Try greasing the slip joint. If it helps, install a zerk for upkeep. Otherwise a custom shaft setup may be in order.

Us 2G reg cab guys have an issue with the exact thing. We can flip the shaft which usually helps since it's a one piece.

 

Drive shaft is all better used the XG-8 ford slip yolk lube, changed the carrier bearing and added an old man emu pinion angle misalignment spacer.



got my trail gear reinforcement plates

and looking at ideas for a bumper

 

Engine update

 

How'd you get the mudflaps to look so good? Great color on them.

 

It’s in this thread. Tape and spray paint

 

Thanks

 

On board air,

toyota center caps

tomorrow I weld on the reinforcement plates from trail gear

 

Mockup

 

Any tips for a clean wiring of the compressor?

 

Noob95.5 awesome work man. I've really enjoyed following your thread.

 

Much appreciated

 

Coated again

 

Interior update

 

Planning on doing something like this in the next week or so

 

Ordered a. 4x4 innovations trans mount to hopefully do away with jerky gear shifts


On the way are a set of injectors to go with the fuel pressure regulator that I’ve had in a box for 6 months, new plenum gaskets, new valve cover gaskets, half moons, and cam plugs.

wiring the compressor, front and rear cameras, fabing new bumper, trailer wiring, brake controller, I think that’s it for now. Finally got the subfloor In in my airstream so I gotta get the truck trailer ready

 

Nice work! This is super impressive.

What's your opinion on the POR-15? Was it easy to deal with and worth it?
