What up. The names Chris, and i see your checkin out my Toyota. I just got down doing a dual axle swap on it. IM running a Dana44 up front and a Dana70HD rear. Shes geared to 5.89 and locked in the rear. Im also running disk brakes all around. Took out the toyota master cylinder and put in a gm 1 ton master. Running Hi Steer (cross over) steering. Shes got 36's for the street on hummer beadlocks and for the trail im runnin 38.5x14.50 super swamper sx's on black rock crawlers. I really cant thinkg of anything really thats been done so far but if you got questions about my build just shoot me a message and i will get back to you.

A LIL BRUISE ON THE TRAIL
Update! January 12,2006-----SAS
Nothing really has gone down with the ol yota lately. I have started collecting parts to begin my solid axle swap. I will be using Dana 60 full width 1 ton axles front and rear out of an older K30 1ton. I plan on also setting it up with dual t-cases and twin stick as well. The axles will be geared at 5.71 ratios and will be locked in the rear. I cant figure out what type of locker im going to run yet. I am thinking about running ARB. Not too awful sure at this point. Also this spring I plan on removing my bed and custom building a flat bed with an incorporated toolbox, DOM hoop over the cab, stringers, and bed rails, diamond plate floor. There are a whole host of ideas right now at this point. I reckon I will just start small and work my up. Also since i already have the 3 inch body lift im going to run a drivetrain lift as well. All of that will be done at the time of my SAS. If anyone has any ideas feel free to fill me in on what you think. A marlin or allpro in cab cage might also be in the works as well, depending on if I can get a tube bender or not.
Update! November 15, 2005
I am starting to miss my truck now. Im goin on 2 months of not havin the ol beast here at school with me. We had some unfortunate problems at home with my mom and sisters vehicles shittin out, so i had to let them take my truck until i get back from school and can fix mom J**P!
Update! June 07, 2005
Finally I have been able to do some more mods to her since coming back from school. I got a set of bucket seats from a Chrysler something or nother, but i ripped out the lousy bench and threw these bad babies in! They feel like a dream compared to the stock toyota seat. After about 45 min i had them bolted in and ready to take a test drive!
As of Dec, 4th here she sits on some 33's with a 3 inch body lift with 15x10 steel simulated beadlock rockcrawlers

UPDATE!! Dec 2nd
Lift and tires came in this week. I've been busy tryin to steam clean the undercarrige this week to make puttin my lil ol body lift (short on cash)easier to deal with! I ordered a 3 inch body lift from national tire and wheel out of West VA. And got a badass deal on a set of 33's mounted and balanced on some simulated bead locks, with center caps, gorilla nutz, all shipped to my door for 950! Ya cant beat that! The lift goes on this weekend, so i cant wait to post up some pics on here. My dream has partially came true! When these tires wear out we are goin to be ridin on some 36's, but thats another day!!
April 15th
Yea my new engine has been running good but now i have aquired another knock in the bottom end so i called ATK and spoke with them about gettin another one...so it looks as if it gonne be another month before shes on the road again! Nothin but problems!
:UPDATE: March 23, 2004
My new engine arrived today from ATK and my stage 4 clutch from Exedy Racing is gonna be here tomorrow! I advise anyone not to go with centerforce, cause guess what they use a stock clutch plate or pressure plate and paint it to make it look aftermarket!!! So no more standing around watching my truck...its time to get crackin' I just order a computer upgrade thing from Venom, its called teh Venom 400 module... more updates to come
April 4th- I got my truck back on the road yesterday. I have to get an exhaust on it cause i dont have enough backpressure and its a pain to set teh timing right and tune it cuase its soo freakin loud i cant hear anything but noise! I got my Hot Shot intake on and the Venom 400 Module isnt goin to go on till i break the motor and clutch in!
My Problems!!!!
After buying the truck I found I had a cracked headgasket! Here are some of the pics as I rebuilt the topend.
Here is what she turned out looking like in the end.
My work is trashed!! The motor blew and here she sits next to my other brokeass truck waitin a new motor coming in march!
