nice job cant wait to see this thing on the road man.

 

Caliper adapters are being made at the machine shop. What is the tool called that measures how straight rotors are?

Been working on my 4 runner bumper. I section a couple inches out of it. Still quite a few things but I can see that I'm almost able to drive it.

 

Worked on it today

I'm waiting for my caliper adapters. I need to get new longer wheel studs and lug nuts. Uhhmm I need to finish my rear cab mounts (was doing that today). I need to finish the front end, which is pretty much mount the fenders. Need to paint the front of the frame. Still some things on the list.

My Dad's truck. It is in really great condition. I get to use it while I don't have a vehicle.



I worked on some things today+random pics:

Did some things to the box for clearance of the gas tank and tires

 

Nice at least you still get to roll around in a yota while your building one. Hey what type of shocks are those?

What a mess:

 

KYB gas a just for a toyota pickup. I could of possibly found other ones. These will have a limit to the lift. And if I drag through my front leaf spring hangers the shocks will start to bottom out. It is such a pain to look at shock dimensions on the KYB website lol really time consuming!!

 

Just pics





There will be more soon

 

Looking good bro. Cant wait for more

 

Well I was trying to find a way to get the heater and ducting to function. I came up with a plan.

I had to fit this back in on the passenger side


I decided to get rid of the top section and so now my fresh air/recirc air dial on the dashboard will not do anything.

 

I made some sheet metal covers for the existing holes. I can seal these over the hole and cut out a hole in it. I can also weld new ducting off of these made out of 18 gauge.


I added a bit of metal to this piece of metal that is inside the fan already:


I will have the fan right about here when I am done:

 

I ran some airline through the frame today also:

 

Almost there man i can see it. Keep it up

 

Thanks. Motivational words are always welcome.

Had an idea



Cleaned up the interior

 

Well that piece looks good inside the cab. But what is it for ?

 

Well I saw a drift car with something like that. They have to have a firewall behind the seats because of the fuel cell. I really liked the look of it so I made my own version. Of course it is just there to look good. I guess as part of the sub and amp rack I will eventually have. I can picture it now...
