    So I realized I started my original build thread in the wrong section...:eek:
    plus I ended up buying another frame so now it's a frame off rebuild.:p

    I would apreciate if anyone who posts would stay on topic...
    and not use my thread to talk about stuff your selling or other off build thread topics, that is what a PM is for:duh:
    Unfortunately!! there are no mods on this site :shrug:
    so the BS can get kinda heavy:brickknock:
    I do love the group of guys on here:clapping: (for the most part) :D

    Lots of great info;) and great yota dude's!:looney:

    The truck was bought in 08 and shortly after blew the HG.
    It sat for 2+ years until I got a new engine off craigslist locally due to a members post for a friend on here.
    I recently realized my frame was also tweaked:eek:
    I knew when I bought it the rad support had taken a hit but the frame hit was hidden until I pulled the bumper.:mad:

    So here is a few pics to get started where I am at now.:waytogo:

    Here is the new frame,

    And here is the truck as it is now...
    I just need to disconnect the brake lines and the body mounts and the cab is coming off.
    You can even see the rusted spot in the front of the frame where it's bent in.
    That was enough to twist the horn and throw off the front wheel

    Here is the motor, going with a Garrett turbo copy, the center housing is Garret the rest is parts from a copycat, it's a t3/4 setup. I am still using the stock manifold.

    The rest of the pics are for you pic lovers...
