Eagle_Adam Posted August 14, 2013 Report Share Posted August 14, 2013 mounting both in the bed? Quote Link to comment
]2eDeYe Posted August 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2013 Yep, need to figure out exactly where and how still. Probably up by the cab bolted to the bed. I plan to padlock the ammo can as it will have my recovery gear in it. Bleed the steering, wholly shit does that make a difference. :lol: Quote Link to comment
heretic Posted August 14, 2013 Report Share Posted August 14, 2013 VERY nice.. those ammo cans are super handy. 1 Quote Link to comment
]2eDeYe Posted August 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 I love ammo cans. Water proof storage on the cheap. :) Quote Link to comment
]2eDeYe Posted August 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 Got to do a bit of cleanup yesterday. Under the hood turned out nice. Replaced my screwed up mudflaps too. Quote Link to comment
Farmer Joe Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 is the block supposed to be offset on the leaf perch in that last picture? Quote Link to comment
SandyMush620 Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 Wow, cleaned up great. Those mudflaps have a big job to do. Quote Link to comment
]2eDeYe Posted August 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2013 is the block supposed to be offset on the leaf perch in that last picture? If by 'supposed to' you mean, that's where it is at and even if I fix it again it will move right back to that position...then yes :lol: The pin portion of the casting broke off. I just keep an eye on it and make sure the u-bolts are tight from time to time. The entire rear is getting redone after I get the red truck back out of the garage. My neighbor has a built yota axle with a 1/4 elliptical 4 link that I might just have to purchase, but we will see when I get to that point, need to save up some $ first. :) Wow, cleaned up great. Those mudflaps have a big job to do. They are ok,but I really want some of these. But these would be the best. :) Quote Link to comment
Boxcar Posted August 19, 2013 Report Share Posted August 19, 2013 You may want to fab one of these. https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&ved=0CCsQFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.unbalancedengineering.com%2FCamaro%2FRag_Joint%2F&ei=2SISUvrwKoqIygHqkYHwDQ&usg=AFQjCNG1r-dKOOLRyLcJmMNcJE_xTMFuuA&sig2=_KmcO0v4CdvR9orS5heSmQ It will save you a bunch of down time in the future. I like the front diff cover. Are you getting much axle rap from those blocks? also like the vid. Looks like a fun trail system. Quote Link to comment

I like the front diff cover. Are you getting much axle rap from those blocks? also like the vid. Looks like a fun trail system. I already deleted the rag joint. I picked up another couple u-joints that I will put together on order to delete the delete :lol: Then it will just be a u-joint to both splined shafts. The splined shaft on the column is collapsible so the rag joint isn't really needed. Walker Valley is good times. That was some of the easier trails for the shakedown run, I'll get some video of some of the harder stuff next time we head up there. :) DAMN IT.!!!! pics of your truck makes me wanna skyjack mine SO BAD.!!! I like it with no front valance & the tan accents are perfect.! Thanks, I like both elevations :D The new bumper will cover up a bit of that, but I will fit the overall theme. :) Quote Link to comment
Siqx20 Posted August 19, 2013 Report Share Posted August 19, 2013 are those goodyear mt/r kevlars? how do you like them i was thinking about getting a set 31/1050/15 for the 720 Quote Link to comment
]2eDeYe Posted August 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2013 Yep, MTR Kevlars. They are great tires so far, they roll round and dig well. Quote Link to comment
Farmer Joe Posted August 20, 2013 Report Share Posted August 20, 2013 lol, i guess if you have it in check its cool then.. ive seen crazier shit than that. Quote Link to comment
]2eDeYe Posted August 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2013 It's under constant supervision. :) 1 Quote Link to comment
Farmer Joe Posted August 20, 2013 Report Share Posted August 20, 2013 i know how it is... you just have the opposite situation than I. i cant count how many times i shake the truck side to side to make sure im not driving on a broken leaf... its happend before. lol Quote Link to comment
collision and customs Posted August 20, 2013 Report Share Posted August 20, 2013 82/83 Totota 4x4 wheel openings would be awesome on your 4x. I cut them down to match the size of the stock openings for a slammed ride. I think the stock toyota sive would work fine with the 35 or 38" tires you have. Quote Link to comment
]2eDeYe Posted August 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2013 I'm keeping my eye out for some of the plastic 720 flares. Still not sure if I want to run flares or not though. Sorry I missed you last time you were in the area...I tend to get carried away with stuff at home and lose track of time. :) Quote Link to comment

ratsun73 Posted August 21, 2013 Report Share Posted August 21, 2013 dang that thing is still sweet! what kind of milage are you getting? Quote Link to comment
]2eDeYe Posted August 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2013 I get about 22 or so, I don't really keep track though. :) Quote Link to comment
]2eDeYe Posted September 30, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2013 Went and played in the woods yesterday. Truck did excellent. I really need to get rid of the lift blocks, add another muffler mount and get a battery box. Push button locker is oh so nice. :D Should have some video once I get some time to go through it. Airing back up (yes I know I am missing a lug :lol:) Made it home 5 Quote Link to comment
