I do have a question for the toyota guys; a 22re pickup would have no badging on the grill besides the "toyota" right? Every 22re pickup I have seen has had nothing...and I have this square on the grill just begging for a "v6" lol

correct

toyota was all proud of when they released the V6 so they actually badged it, just like how they had the EFI badges in 85, 86 etc. Its just to bad they rushed the design of that v6 and screwed it all up...they shoulda just ran the turbo motor for another year or 2 instead of rushing to compete with Nissan and failing miserably

Thanks 1BJB, I was afraid of that lol, maybe I'll make up for by using the 22re gauge cluster.

Got my chassis back from Lue and I love it!
.
I decided I was gonna swing for the fences with this build so I stole the axles from my J12. I lost the poison spider covers when I stole them lol. OD/UD gears, FI spools, vanquish shafts up front and LockedUp OT2 shafts in the rear rolling on avid bearings and held together with LockedUp RC scale hardware.

Stole the Agile rings and the Adversary rims from the J12 also. I stretched 1.55 growlers over them stuffed with CI closed cell 4.25" foams and replaced my 225 hubs for LockedUp RC 185 SLW hubs - So enjoy all the LockedUp RC goodness!
