Ok, so heres the jist of everything so far... I bought an 81' yota and was gonna fix it up. After sooner reconsideration I decided to **** that project because there was wayyy to much rust and the frame was bent. So I ended up picking up a 77 hilux 2wd for really cheap, drove it home. The hilux has the 20r engine in it, and i will be swapping everything *besides the 81 motor* over from the 81' to make it 4wd. I will be running 44044 waggy springs for my fronts, and make a springs pack of toyota rears, for my rear springs. Thank you rookie for hauling the 81 over for me :awesomework:
Tonight I was taking out the rear axle from the 77, my god those center sleeves are a bitch on the hangers. I poured alot of liquid wrench on them and I will check on them in the morning. As of now I feel like im coming down with the flu.
Also I was looking closer into to remove the front IFS, and the cross member that the control arms connect to, the stupid motor mounts are connected to that cross member also, so it looks like im going to need some help figuring out how to make motor mounts that connect to my frame (never done it) Anyways... that is all :awesomework::beer:
