Nice deep sump with windage tray setup! 22R looks good, but needs oil filter on left side of block and PS pump up by distributor. :mrgreen:"thumbsup"
Lol...I knew you'd catch some details on the motor. I'm going to let good enough be good enough on this build. I have a much more detailed 22R coming for another one of my Toyotas, so let's see if that one passes the Natedog test. "thumbsup"
Great re-build thread !
The leaf shackle fix makes a difference, all of my TF2's have been done. Money well spent.
Thanks, gents! And glad to hear you like the leaf shackle mounts. Spoiler alert...more news on those, but you'll have to read to the end of this post. :mrgreen:
Thanks! We're happy with how it's coming along.
We've made a little more progress since the last update. First up were windows:
Scrunch decided that the windows should be ajar (not the kind you put jelly in, but the kind that are partially open). So out came the Sharpie:
Followed by the scalpel (in my hands, not hers):
MIRRORS!!!!!
She also decided that the passenger window should be open just a smidge:
She was pleased:
Did you notice the little elf in the background? It's almost impossible to keep him out of the garage. But he's been ordered to keep his hands off this one. This is Scrunch's build!
Then it was time to fit our newest BowHouse RC part:
As you know, we've had these little guys out for quite a while as a printed part, and they work great. Never being ones to leave well enough alone, we figured why not aluminum? They came out great and were just announced today.
Next up will be the interior (which is a good thing, because Nick has the chassis for a few days to start working on a new part). I think Scrunch already has some ideas for the innerds, so we'll have to see what she comes up with.
