Well I got the rear suspension cut out and the 14 bolt tacked in. I never knew how soft 63s in a 4runner were! This things gonna ride like a poor mans Cadillac. Need to finish freshing up the transmission, then get those set in to see where its going to live and how much tunnel im going to have to cut.
I also rebuilt the clutch pedal assembly and got that installed.

Looking good. Yea the 63s are really soft back there. Im running the 4leaf pack with a AAL to match the front TG 4" springs. Although I think the front has settled enough I may need to make some changes in the rear now.
Im really interested see more of the motor swap. Ive been tempted to swap to a manual trans behind my 4.3 and ive also been tempted add another number a drop a 5.3 in it lol.

That 450HP V8 would look good in my '92 T4R. Although merging on to the freeway would be much less "sporting".

Cool build Nate. When you say you are trying to keep it low, are you talking 35s? 37s?

40s I’ve always ran 40s on my builds. I’m trying to keep it low on 40s, there’s a lot of body carving in the near future.

Cool build! And some really nice work going on here!
I really like the low height of your Chevy 63s. This is my plan for the rear of my upcoming slow build. How much lift did you get from them? Do you have any pics of how you set up the mounts and stuff? Hope you don't mind me picking your brain a little, just over here doing some research...

It sure is worth the wait to see photos of your build. Thanks again for sharing them.

The most expensive part is in. It’s all down to making it work now.
