Yotarob's 86 4runner build

[yotarob]

Those are sweet, but Marlins 4.7's won't work in my chain driven T-case. Inch worm has an adapter for me to keep my auto and convert to a gear drive case.

It is the only way for me to make a doubler without a 5 speed swap, but at $550 for the adapter + a used gear driven case ($200?) + $450 for 4.7's from Marlin it is going to be expensive as fuck! When I get to that point I am going to have to seriously consider just doing the 5 speed swap. Not too sure what I will end up doing. I think for now I will re-gear the diffs and keep thinking about it.

Damn! I forgot about your automagic. $550 for the adapter! FUDGE!

 

[yotarob]

No kidding right! Hard call! I could prob. swap it for less $$.

You could easily wrap up 2500 in a doubler setup behind that automagic. (2 4.7 cases with all the goodies and adapters)

Yea, thats pretty much what I did, but kept the taco rear case and added some beef internals and input shaft

You got a doubler?

Thats pretty much just not going to happen. I don't have that much in my entire truck at this point. Adapter and single 4.7 case is more like it.

SAS parts on order?

Did some more work on my CB antenna mount last night.

Marked and cut out the sheet metal

Some welding and grinding

Drilled the holes to mount the aluminum bracket

Finally hit it with some primer.

I might spread a little bondo over it before I re-paint the truck green.

 

[balakay]

That's definitely not going anywhere.

 

[Silverback]

Looks great. Just don't back into a tree with it. Too soon?

 

[AlienXtx]

no tail wagging?

 

[Mauzer]

Nice work Rob

 

[yotarob]

Thanks guys, In truth welding it in flush was done because I didn't have a big enough gap to fit a respectable piece of steel in between the tailgate and rear corner. Strength wise the mount itself is pretty strong, but in theory it is only as strong as the sheet metal you mount it too so strength gain by welding it in is minimal. I can say that it doesn't move, and I will try not to smash it on a tree this time, but no promises

awesome job rob.

[yotarob]

You guys might not believe this, but the boys in brown actually delivered a package on time!

Nice eye wraps

Friction pads on both ends of every leaf

And a full set of poly bushings

Nice man! I can help put them on next Sunday.
