im probably getting ready to do some sheet metal type work? A lot of the carpet/cardboard/plastic that makes up the inside of the 4Runner is starting to come loose. I was thinking about pulling it off and making a bunch of the inside out of sheet metal (or something) then putting some sort of bedliner over it. That would also give me a chance to pound out some of the character marks. then just fiberglass it all. Then as soon as Keane and I do our next Little Sluice run and one more Fordyce run for speed, My Toy will be going down for some major modifications.. I am building a custom suspension, double triangulated in the rear, and a 3 link mid arm in the front. I am getting rid of my stock tranny skid plate and going to a flat belly pan from budbuilt. I will have to modify my driver floor board because my dual case crawler will need to be about 2 inches higher than it is now. I want to stretch the rear a few inches. Not for wheelbase, but for a better departure angle. I'm tired of dragging my rear bumper over everything at the Hammers and the Mall. I want beadlocks because I'm tired of burping air or unbeading tires when I have to run low air pressure. I also want new seats and harnesses just for safety reasons. I want a grill hoop incase I flop it over. I want to prtect my radiator. Also building a front Dana 60, and by next summer, I hope to have my V8 swap done (Although I am not convinced I need one) I will have to evaluate how my toy drives on 44 inch tires with 5:13 gears and the stock motor. o ya, john sucks
This is just the stuff that I know I need within a year or 2.
