    Holy hell man, I think I speak for everyone when I say you need to go bigger! That ain't gonna cut it by a long shot. Do you really expect to pull jeeps outta the mud when you don't have enough chain bcuz ur box is too small? Betcha thought I was referring to your tires haha. Nice rig dude!

    If the workout machine that is clearly not in use due to certain cases blocking it, you should sell it, buy more beer and truck parts

    My gardener showed up on Friday with this and all I saw was a 31 year time warp. 1991 Toyota V6 Heavy Duty Dually with factory flat bed and 43k mi. He said he rarely drives it because he doesn't want the factory paint to get scratched and gets offers every time he drives it around which is totally believeable.

    So what are some good replacement IFS cv axles to go with, i do wheel my old 4runner quite a bit but price is a concern. Ive found LCE has some and are priced good but not sure of the quality of the cv's. Ive gone through enough cheap cv axles that only last a year and im done swapping them out all the time.

    Anyone in here have any experience with t-case brakes? I'm trying to decide between the more expensive one offered from all pro versus the sky version. Any thoughts?

    Uhh I have one on my 85 and my 96.

    I'll have to look and see what the 85 is, the 96 is a discontinued ballistic fab.

    They work OK but need a lot of adjustments and can be finicky about loosening up more than the self adjusting factory brake.

    The 96 has a floating caliper that rattles audibly while driving.

    Thanks for the feedback! I definitely don't want a rattle. That would drive me batty.
