^ the DP thing i looked into and is great for the 4x4 guys but 2wd has the torsion bars inside and under the frame and i believe it will cause clearance issues, i am still going to have to rebuild mine to have the most ground clearance

 

Ya I forgot about the torsion bars since I don't have them it'll work for me haha

 

it's your walking sticks on the line 100 buck's a leg is good to me

Stroud 516 Stroud Transmission Blankets


further more the clutchs runs on bands and they can bust/snap one of thous at higher rpm like 4 rpm it will do some heavy damage since you mounting flange has bean weakened alot



this is from band snapping

 

Spent about 4hr on the truck today

 

finally got paint on it

 

wow thats starting to look amazing. good color choice

Oh and do you have any videos of it running? What did you end up doing with the exhaust? I know some people like it and some dont but how about running a Stack going up through the bed like the big boy diesels?

 

Look on YouTube under Tdswaps.

 

Hey can you get a pic of your vacuum shut off for me?

 

wil try to get one after work for you

 

Damn bro, get over it. Next time you build a TD yota, you can put all the sheet you want. He already said he don't give a sheet if it lights on fire from stuff busting or snapping. Quit trying to convince him. It doesn't matter if he wants to roll in a busted up hoopdie. It's his ride and he can hack job it up all he wants...

 

Doing what I can with what I have, I know there are plenty of areas i could have spent alot more money or time on but this is no show truck , this is a truck i bought to do dump runs and and go get parts

 

The trucks coming out great, I just don't understand why some people are so insistent on try to get you to go with something that I am sure you already thought of. Sure, I give people my opinion but once. If you decide not to listen its up to you.

 

turbo diesel swap 89" Toyota pickup

for sale

 

Sold

 

What??? Why???

 

Probably to make room for the next project. Sometimes the fun is in the doing, not the having.

 

Well, yeah, I can see that. But thats like saying: "I'm sorry Kate Upton, but we've already dated a few times and the fun of chasing you is over. Off to other endeavors."
Unless your Leo Dicaprio, chances are you aren't going to be mowing through Victoria Secrets models in the near future and will probably just end up settling for Justin Beibers, groupie cast-offs.... I mean.
Selling your project, just to aquire another rusty old project that you'll have to fix all over again.
