May the two Chad's be united in holy basicness

Wait a minute- "to handle the new engine"? What are you putting in this thing?

I'm also about to round up every one of my military buddies and we're gonna go 10 miles out a trail then get "lost" so you HAVE to come rescue us

 

FNG reporting for doody!!

 

Putting a 2JZ into it aiming for 600whp

You should hope I never have to come rescue your military buddies as the nature of the rescues is usually not pleasant

 

Thank you for your service. I salute to you sir. I just stumbled on to your thread. Nice build sir.

 

Thank you!

 

We'll have a beer waiting for ya

 

Lol refer to original post

 

Vehicle update:

Truck is currently deadlined at Toyota with a trashed rear differential

Was dropped off Wednesday this week
Still no update as of Saturday morning

On their dime
Not mine

 

Damn man bummer, didn’t realize the rear officially died.

 

Yeah it's started hopping when making turns like it was a welded diff
And then in straight lines at 35mph it was shaking the whole truck

And at 30mph it sounded like you were going 80mph with the windows down

 

Wow man that is def some crazy shit. I really hope they take care of you and get it fixed up right.

 

Subd for new rear end!

I really wanna see your truck brown

 

As of today
Toyota is telling me that it blew
Because I modified the suspension on the rear of the truck

 

Sub'd for off-roading again someday soon

 

That has to be the most bullshit excuse ever...Im guessing the pinion angle must have totally grenaded the diff according to them even if its well within spec right? So are you eating the bill for a whole new rear? It would be great to see if Toyota could provide a "technical" writeup about just how the suspension modification caused the diff to explode.

 

would be tho​

 

You have bigger tires and long travel....what did you expect?

 

Yep
