well, its been my daily driver now for about 4 years, i've had about $6,000 worth of work done on it since i bought it lol, i'd love to have it painted by the first of the year hopefully...
eventually a 20r/22r motor, with the w58 transmission would be amazing.....its running bone stock, down to the original emission setup...still though she runs like a scalded dog
Cool truck man! W58 and a 22R hybrid? Dont forget the rear end gears...Do you know what your R&P ratio is?
thanks man honestly, i'd rather keep my stock engine setup and just do the trans, my engine has plenty of power for me...if the gears were taller i think it'd be perfect. the rear end is the one from the factory?
Great to see another 82 member my all time favorite, truck looks great, very clean. What are your other plans, I can hear her begging to be lowered LOL! Is it an SR5? Heres my 82, got it bone stock , original owner, I was very lucky My truck is stock floored, bagged, 18's,3 linked,4x4 front end (minus fenders) detailed motor. Truck is schduelded for body work and paint next spring.
I hope you decide to lower it, its a great life, I have been a Mini Trucker for 23 years, I'm a lifer! Hope you enjoy the site, very knowledgable people here, anything you could want to know about your truck can be found right here, check out Street Source - The Ultimate Custom Automotive Resource, very great site too
