okay this migt be off topic but are you haveing any trouble withe the front driveshaft angle it looks kindof steep just seemslike it would bind at that angle


just an idea to mate 2 more tranny outputs togrther with a tube so it can rotate at more of an angle









ps if this dosent make sence im sorry ....partied a quite a bit for the superbowl last night

Dave I know about that specialized stuff I think thats what he doesnt deal thier bikes, to many restrictions. thanx for the feedback on the runner

4rnrrick- Thats a badass 4runner dude! I was thinking of going all out with an exo like that but it would be a pain in the *** to get the body off only problem with the lil scaled down trucks

buggyboy, I inquired with dave about that, he said in post that there was some sort of slop, I gotta see what he says about it more.

Mike

Is it done? NOPE but the exo cage is back from being powdercoated it came out great and the best part of all is it was FREE (stepdad worked for the guy years ago and are still good friends ). I snapped a few pictures but the damn sun glared everything horribley, I plan on actually driving it this weekend since I should have some free time and its suppose to be in the 50s finally .

I still have to install the head lights, do something about the body roll and install my other bender mount on the back, add some dual exhaust and maybe one of Unimogers roof racks. OOOO and I just found out the my hilux interior fits so I am going to do an interior as well maybe with some cage work

Well Ben, I took your advice and got those knight hauler bearings off ebay for 9.95 and I just installed them and also dropped the ride height down a bit by swapping out the shocks. I lost a little bit of flex but it looks so much more scale now, itll look even better once those roof racks are available Only pirctures I have now are from the "rock"









Ill have more pics soon, I should be able to actually play a bit this weekend with the trucks rather then just wrenching

Stay tuned guys, the 4Runner is far from done

Mike
