    Here’s where I hurt it. I didn’t jump up the last bit with quite enough momentum and came down on the shaft, gas tank and muffler. Significant driveline vibration, gas gauge stuck at 3/4 (went in with 1/2).

    Looking good! Maybe a gas tank skid is in order after you straighten it out.

    Yeah I’m not sure what to do about that. Anyone know where the float is located in these tanks?


    Here’s me trying to get up this same obstacle in the old tacoma. Never did make it.

    Way too much for what it was. Canadian labour is expensive.

    I’ll be bringing the shafts back to them in a couple weeks for some other modifications :spy: not looking forward to that bill.
