I've been running a single 4.7 case for a while now with 4.88 diff gears and maybe wouldve went duels without the added cost of converting from v6 chain to 4cyl gear drive. I love my setup and can generate plenty of wheelspeed with the trans. gears. the only draw back so far is generating...

If you buy a flat pitman arm you can mount the box verticle which moves the bottom of the steering box two or three inches forward with out clearance issues with the core support but it does take a little fab work nothing too difficult though.

My driveline guy/ machinist races 4x4 mud trucks his truck is 600+ hp. He has probably ran every axle shaft ujoint combo known to man. He says that the warn axles are the best he has ever bought and well worth the extra money. He still breaks ujoints but wheen he does the axles dont get...

Years ago before most of my group had lockers and tires we found a hill that was challenging for us to play on in the naches area. My uncle in his very capable cj did not find this hill to be worth his time untill we decided to move on down the trail this was when he decided to show us how easy...

Sorry like I said Im not that familiar with your body style ext. cab windows. Sounds like a new window seal is in order.

From 89 to 92 toyota pickups and 4runners had 3.0 3vze engine from late 92 - 95 they had a distributorless version of the 3.0 3vz-fe. Toyota changed the V6 with the Tacoma model in 95 or 96 it is a 3.4 liter 5vze. I believe they are still using 3.4 Liter platform for there V6 and the bell...

Im not that familiar with your body style ext. cab windows but I have a 92 that I have replace about six of them in. If your cab is tweaked like mine then they dont seal very well. What I did was use narrow self adhesive weather striping put it on the window in such a fashion that it does look...

Has anyone adapted a FORWARD shift gear drive case to a Toy v6 Tranny. I have put a top shift on this transmission so I know you need the adapter and a 23 spline input. Other than that does everything work the same or can it be done at all?

Take a look at your knuckles this is a dead give away on gm and waggy axles if they are the flat top style then you have the correct spindle dia. for the ford hubs and wheel bearings. If not then you will need spindles from a 1976 or older gm or wagoneer D44. this is the year that gm went to...

My first experiance was at naches my dad had a broken back so the driving was passed down to me I was13 could reach the pedals and see out the window and it was the same vehicle I own now so I think it counts. My dad made me drive up this steep muddy hill he knew we couldnt make it to the top...

Thanks for the input it was all helpfull

I made my own diff protection using 1/4" plate, a couple of heavy c-clamps, a torch, and a old jeep brake drum that I cut in half. I found the inside dia. of the drum was the rite size for the front and bottom of my toyota housings. Then just ground off the drain plug ring and welded my armor...

I want to install a childs seat in the extended cab portion of my toy pickup. Iwas wondering if anybody has done something more safe than just putting a store baught child seat in with a seat belt. Has any one fabed a special seat or found a place to buy a child size racing seat for mounting...

If you have a manuel trans you can split the gears in in a low t-case and generate plenty of wheel speed.
