The BS Daycare but no build thread

I got all the above

4wd + force induction + ........ well, it's currently NWD at the moment

 

Been there, done that..... that's why I get Smiles Per Gallon

 

Customer coming over for a little work and since I'm busting out the welder, thought I'd do a thing.

Smooth diff means smooth going over the rocks right?



Jokes!



Didn't weld fully around as it's not really necessary. Just a small bit of armor up front as it's prone to denting in the event of a fuck up.

Should've listened to others though about grinding it down or chopping the corner off; it's meant for Yota Pick Ups so it won't fit perfectly around the LC diff but that's ok. I'll let it self-clearance if it comes to that.

 

Nice work

 

Damn bolt on the panhard bar was tighter than a mother fucker.

I didn't bust out the impact cause I didn't want to keep crawling underneath but it took me kicking the damn breaker bar just to break the bolt loose.

 

Also concluded I won't be making a transmission skid; as tucked up as the transmission is I'd have to be a complete knob to put a big ass rock directly center under my vehicle.

 

Look at what I found. Went through my pops crap and found a bucket full of carriage bolt of varies sizes and lengths.

 

Of course you never hook it up with anything

 

Ha. I'll drop some off in 2 week when I'm back home.

 

Well, it stretches.

And it's being limited too since I left my damn extended bumpstops on even though I said I'd remove them for the longest time now



Fronts come pretty damn close too, just those radius arms now.

Glad my brake lines aren't limit straps anymore.

 

Got the spare tire out once and for all

Glad to see it remains mint since none of my wheels are even scuffed.



Cooper STT Pro, man these tires were awesome especially since they were 315/70/17 (35s).



Been getting a ton of inquiries still and after saying no so many times (and not finding what I want) I'm considering a daily driver mod so...we'll see.

 

Do the IFS swap

 

Got new wheels?

 

Should have went straight to 343/85/R17

 

Sounds good, I'll start gathering parts.

7.5" front diff, some Taco cv axles, and "while I'm in there" I may as well just throw in a 3RZ amirite?

Get rid of that 1FZ.

 

New?

It's my spare. Same wheels.

Just took it out of the shed since it's been there for a year and a half.

 

You got it wrong... buy a 100, swap to a 2uz and run their IFS

 

Was 8am when I yanked stuff out of the shed and it was already super hot outside; I'm done for today fuck doing anything but chilling and drinking

I'll pull my rear bumpstop extensions tomorrow morning as they really limited my rear wheel from tucking in; lost several inches of uptravel.



Big difference versus the above picture where my front wheel is stuffed.
