One of my friends actually commented that I should cut out my roof and make glass t-tops. :0

So some of you will be happy to know that I backed out of selling the 4runner. I figure Med bills can wait. :-) I just sent in payment for more parts for the sas. Have the front hanger. Ubolt flip kit and IFS plates on the way. Getting more excited every day. Pics will come when I have more than my phone to work from. ( computer is shot)

sctrep

So my computer is still down. Sucks using a phone to type all of this. I have all of my sas stuff (excluding spacers) and my grand total is ....... $887.50 !!!!! I am extremely happy. My price list goes like this.

1985 sfa. $100.00
High steer arms - free
disc brake upgrade - free
Spring pearches- free
lower shock mounts - free
TG tie rod and fj ends - free
This was all included with the axle
TG drag link and ends - $124
Shock hoops, greasable shackles, motor mount plates- $148.50
Ubolt flip, steering box plate, front spring mount- $80
TG 3" front springs - $285
Bilstien 5150- $150
I still need tires and a few other small things. But I think I did pretty good keeping this a budget build. ( so far) next will be installing everything.

very nice!!! is this a 5 speed or auto? love th chop, shoulda domne this too the one 4runner i almost bought, was scared if that 3.ohh though

sctrep

It's a 5 speed 3.0 Im gonna run the v6 until it blows then do a swap. Woul like Either a 2jz or a 4bt diesel.

westjohns yota

2jz would be an awesome swao, figured out the rear lift yet???

sctrep

Yeah. Going with Chevy's for now.

sctrep

So I bought the rear kit for chevs but decided to sty with coils. I installed some 2" ironman fj coils along with extending the links: 2" lower 2.25" upper.



Rear sits low due to all the IFS crap in the back. Should sit pretty level.

sctrep

Here's a shot of the rear shocks with the procomp adapters.


And a shot of the 4runner and my next project. A 1950 Hudson pacemaker. And my stepfather's Dodge.

Been working more on the chop .

sctrep

Ohh btw. I'm officially at the $6k mark on this ride (excluding time and labor). Still think I'm doing pretty good.

Now I want to chop mine up.

sctrep

Do it!!!! As long as you don't need your cargo to be dry at all times.

J&Hfab

your 4runner looks amazing man I really like the chop

sctrep

Thanks. Still needs finished though.

Ok so I am going to Chop my 87 before too much longer. I have pretty much no experience with metal work though and the military isn't the kind of job that pays tons So I was hoping you could offer some pointers, tools that might be helpful, etc. The top of mine if fiberglass so I just have to weld the tailgate in place. and the rest is fiberglass work. Awesome build man, I am loving it, very inspirational.

Your rig is BAD@$$!! Im think of looking for a 4Runner after I get my truck back together, just have to convince the wife lol She will prob say I need to decide between either a Diesel 3/4ton or a Runner. Seeing yours makes me think a 2nd gen 4 door would be good for fun, escpecially with the dogs. Just saw a chopped one on craigslist. THougt for a second it was yours but im in Colorado lol Heres the link. It looks good but yours is alot nice and cleaner.
