any one else notice how SLAMMED that DHL truck is? Just realized it haha

 

^^I thought it was a sea train container. lol, more paying attention to the 4runner.

I love this project, i cant wait to see it laid out. The work is great, keep it comin.

 

the dude i got it from collects junk. the dhl truck is just a body that he stashes crap in lol

thanks

 

So how are you registering this runner? Cause in CA it says if vehicles are made of one or more vins it is based off frame vin. So thts what I'm going off of

 

in az they wont even look at the frame, they just check the vin, but he wont even need to get inspection, and the 4runner i believe is already registered since he got the plate

 

yeah it's already registered as a 4runner, and i still have title and 5 year registration on the frame.

 

Ya I'm keeping mine as pickup reg. Cuz I have no idea of the last time the runner was reg.

 

so when you get pulled over and they look at the reg and its states its a pick up yet it looks like a suv they will tow your ****! swapping the vin wont help either cause when they run it and it comes back as a pickup still on a suv body ubfukd.

 

Well vehicle code 671 states this click on link. Which ill hve a printed copy with me
V C Section 671 Vehicle Identification Number

 

did a little work on this today. my wife had to drag me out there cuz it's so hot and humid lol

wife welding up the rear tubs



and i built the stuff to run the clutch master backwards under dash

















and a vid of it cycling

cycling flipped toyota clutch m/c - YouTube

 

So sick! Indipentent rear dope! I'd trade my truck in a heart beat for a bagged 4 runner lol!

 

^^ I got one to trade lol

 

this project is a pain in the butt. i should have kept it a truck and bought a suv for the family mobile. lol

 

I agree with you there man I wish I kept it a truck aswell. I just got mine back to my new house so hopefully ill finish it soon

 

Great project man, I feel your pain on leaving it alone, but you get to the point where there is no return or short cuts and you have to do it the right way. I'm on car number 14 in a span of 1 year. And it's not my full time job but just a hobby. Next car I am buying done! Well, maybe just swap out the wheels... That's where it starts right?

 

been tinkering with the runner some more.

got the pedal assembly and firewall modified for the 88 toyota mr-2 brake booster



this shows where the clutch m/c will be



removed the old clutch line and copied it with a new line, except mine goes into the firewall. it's the bottom darker one.



and got it hooked to the m/c. just need my wife here to help bleed it.

 

now we can push it around and have brakes lol

 

hell no this bastard is way heavier then the hilux. it can sit until it drives lol. good thing there isn't any shows till memorial day

 

Ya these bastards are heavy as hell. Looks good man

 

Any updates? Great write up on relocating the clutch m.c.! What size heim joints did you use?
