    Dana 60 Full hydro steering arms

    I have the sky offroad arms and like them pretty well. I do run bronze King pin bushings. They seem to stay tight. I did have to clearance them slightly to keep from hitting the tie rods at full lock.

    Cage Rebuild on my 85 Toyota

    Great so far. I am going to admit I really haven't put it in a situation where I have tested it but I do feel much safer while riding. Not long after my trip to Windrock last spring, I had a crazy engine fire that started out of no where. I had shut the engine off after loading my truck on my...

    TH350 - where can i measure oil temperature

    I put mine in the port you circled closest to the bell housing. That is a 1/8 npt port if I'm not mistaken and most sending units screw directly in to that port. I have heard you will get a more accurate reading from the pan but this location has worked for me.

    Transmission cooler in front of radiator?

    GM and Ford both have been running factory trans coolers in that orientation for years with no issues. I have replaced them in trucks before after front end collisions and never bled them. Mine is mounted in the same orientation in my rig and my trans has never been over 190°. Never bled it...

    Tom Woods offset u joints??

    I am running one on my front shaft at the transfercase end. I have broken spicer lifetime joints in my axles but never one of these. I do run 1410 driveshafts and I am a pretty conservative driver but with a heavy rig(5500) and 4:1 low/low range of my doubler, it has held up great. I do feel...

    Cage Rebuild on my 85 Toyota

    Ain't that the truth. I brought up new Chromo Shafts w/ Super Joints and after I told her the U-Joints wouldn't be a problem anymore, she didn't even blink an eye. Just asked when they would be here. :****:

    I will pass along the compliments. I'm just glad we can join our passions together on the trail. She loves to photograph landscapes and the outdoors in general. She also loves to wheel so it really helps make our relationship work. I'm sure she would have been done with me and this hobby a...

    Cage Rebuild on my 85 Toyota

    Great! Expensive as **** but great. We suffered through tons of rain on Friday but made the best of it. Saturday was beautiful weather wise and I was able to mark Rail Trail off my list since last time I was there we weren't able to run it. I did break a spicer joint in my front axle just after...

    Cage Rebuild on my 85 Toyota

    Cage rebuild is complete. I've spent the last few weeks getting a bunch of little stuff wrapped up. I remounted the lights and radiator. Plumbed, wired, and mounted the new Derale trans cooler. Switched out the old bulky plastic toolbox for a more low profile aluminum box. Recessed the cooler in...

    Cage Rebuild on my 85 Toyota

    Awesome! Glad to see my rig gave someone some ideas on their own. The 4 link setup works great in the front. Is it perfect? No, but it works. Good luck!

    Cage Rebuild on my 85 Toyota

    Here it is. I think it really turned out nice. I added the roll bent tubing to the rear and I think it finished it off. The new down bars to the bed aren't as long as the old ones and with the addition of the roll bent tubing to the rear wheel wells it gives the appearance that the truck is...

    Cage Rebuild on my 85 Toyota

    No. Not yet. Had to fit some tubes for the radiator mount to make the flow look decent from the radiator mount to the new cage. The radiator mount has side pans that attached to old headache rack right behind the cab. I always hated that rack behind the cab so I **** canned it with this new...
