4x4 Wanna Be Part 2 - SAS Toyota Axle/3Link

I'll try to keep it that way

 

Thanks guys, I'm happy with how it's turned out. Now just to get everything tuned just right.

 

I just got my shipping info from polyperformance, my shackles will be here Friday. Guess that means it will be another busy weekend. Also got to help jerretxx tear into his rear leafs on his lil 85 build.

Also, after talking to several of the mechanics we deal with here at work, the majority are saying that there's either air in the system or maybe some gunk... so I'm going to flush the P/S system and see what happens.

 

I got the PS bled and now she's right


Took it out on the town with everyone for Jerretxx's b-day. It handles very well, just ready to have it completed

 

Looks awesome man. Post more pics.

 

Damn, whatta my going to read now? Looks good. Next project?

 

Nice work man looks sweet!!

 

Nicely done. I'm glad you kept it around $2,000. Just like everyone else that SAS's

 

Thanks man... just your average budget build... old axle, it's only from 79 so it didn't need new bearings, seals or rotors. The rear has 4.56 and the front has 4.10 so it shouldn't make that big of difference

Just a bunch of recycled parts

 

Thanks bud, there's still a few odds and ends that I want to do to it like chromo axles, synthetic winch line, LED rock lights and a few things along the way

Next project is getting a diamond... and I don't mean an axle lol but after that I may look into building a true beater that I wouldn't mind taking a hit or two... I would love to build a FJ80 or get a old body (79-83) and do FJ80 axles under it with a flat bed... but we will see

 

If you put a ring on it say bye bye to the builds haha

 

is that really not a big deal?

 

Nah, I was just messing around

They both are 4.56, I was just going back to a prior conversation me and SupraTT had about doing a "cheap" SAS

 

I got my shackles in thursday afternoon. I got them put on today and the alignment done. She now sit's just right and drives like a dream... not to mention the rear is real flexy I'm getting the shocks mocked up tomorrow and then it will be complete, ready to wheel.







Here's some pics of the skid plate he made. Not the best pics, I will try to get some better ones tomorrow when we have it flexed to check the rear setup.






I love looking in the parking lot and seeing this

 

damnit man, congrats. Your truck is badass.

 

Thanks, I'm looking for to seeing your rig next weekend at URE

 

Lets see some action pics!

 

We are going next weekend to URE (local off-road park) and camping. I will have plenty after that if all goes well

 

So clean man. So clean.
