I think we can get it done though.

I like this idea of yours very much. We could also start a support group for people coping with the loss of real 4Runners and living through the RCs. Mine had a 22R though so it was even more crappy and awesome.

You're good at trucks.

I have no B's in stock. Would you accept an X?

Thank you.



Did I do this correctly?

That is indeed a splendid idea, my gray and black 84 tiyota 4Runner has a pretend 22ret coverted to 22re because the ct20 blew and who likes boost anyways...way overrated, at least it's better then 22r with slobberator fuel system.

I enjoyed your version of 'Moving Pictures' very much! The scene around the 4:15 mark shows the leafy springs flexing as well as a 1:1 'Yoter.

Axles looked like they held up. Now I'm eyeing my set to see if I have the cajonies to cut them up. My forest service truck build would look sooo much better with the tires inside of the wheel wells were they belong.

And to scale you were hitting bumps at 30+mph!

I bet an 84 4Runner would like boost. It might be able to get out of its own way if it had some.

Did you cut your axles yet? If you wreck 'em the only thing you're out is time and money so no big deal!

My 30+ mph comment was just agreeing that it looked realistic bouncing around on the trail.

I made a simple roll bar to dress up the truck.

This is satisfactory. Time for paint.

Man that paint came out smooth on the OYOA. The narrowed axles look great under there. Fantastic stock appearance.
