    Gambler 500 - I guess it is time to learn about VW's

    Is there a date for 2020? Is it worth it. I’ve kind of thought about it but been disappointed that there are not really any $500 cars left in this area on CL or similar, but a couple of days remembered the $350 2wd S10 blazer I bought a year as a chassis done for a project that hasn't started...

    Car Stereo Stuff Question

    Coincidentally I just ordered a set of Rockford Fosgate R165X3's. There "Prime" series. Should be here tomorrow and I'll try them out. If I like them, I'll get another set and replace all 4. I'm kind of excited to have a complete set of working speakers in the truck again. $40 and free...

    Car Stereo Stuff Question

    So I know squat about Car Stereo stuff, never got into it as a teen even though I knew tons of friends that were. The driver's side door speaker in my Silverado has gone out again. Just over a year on a "GM" replacement from Amazon. Turns out the rear driver's side is out as well and pretty...

    Trail Gear 3-link. Options?

    Coincidentally, both lower links that came with this truck have a nice frown to them. I wonder if its more not stout enough material rather than geometry. Also seems that is the kit comes with links already welded, then the geometry is pretty much fixed by the manufacture. Especially if the...

    Trail Gear 3-link. Options?

    True, linked it would not be a "Formula Toyota" class anymore.... but since that really doesn't exist much it doesn't bother me, and this things has already been bastardized enough to probably not fit the rules anymore. I picked this because I always liked the shape and it was a good deal to...

    Trail Gear 3-link. Options?

    Trail Gear 3-link. Opinions? Ok, my f-toy project I'm working on had a 3-link if the front in its last configuration. It came with some of the parts, but the links are bent and the housing is missing a bunch of parts. Originally I was going to trash it and sell off what I could thinking it...

    Sold/Expired Want - Toyota T-case

    Bump. Getting a better idea what I got and what I need. Looking to do a doubler, I got one t-case but I'll need a top-shift to complete the set. Looking to spend $100, not more than $150 for a good, serviceable, ready-to use unit. In this case I'm not being a cheap ass, I just did that math...

    Toyota Front Leaf Springs

    Kind of thought the same thing. I might steel some leaves out of those springs, and they will work as-is for holding the rig up, but they are not suitable. For one the spring eyes are WAY too small for the big bolts the toys use. Like I said, I had to torch the bushings out and the bolts take...

    Toyota Front Leaf Springs

    Took some pictures and measurements. Front mounts, fixed to shackle is in the 45-46" range. Springs in the pictures are a set of springs I had laying around from an IH pick-up truck which, after I burned the bushings out, fit in pretty nice to allow me to roll it around. Right now they...

    Toyota Front Leaf Springs

    The mounts that are on there right now are pretty beefy and/or have been reinforced. I'll take a closer look tomorrow.
