    Stretch's 87 4Runner - Easy E

    Thanks! It was a damn good trip for sure. There is an aluminum tube that drops from the pickup fitting to the back passenger corner of the cell. Came that way so I am running it for now. I have a buddy 10 minutes from me that has been running the same style cell/pickup/prefilter/pump setup for...

    She runs and drives. Got the last bit done today and went for a cruise around the house on some 2 lanes. Drive flanges and a square front shaft get bad around 40 :lol: ran it up to about 50 on GPS before steering got a bit twitchy. Gonna hit all the nuts and bolts one more time but it's ready...

    Just needs fuel and an air filter and the ol shitmissile will be ready to fire up. Bumped the key just to make sure the fuel pump came on.

    :clap2: perfect! LOL. Thanks. I really enjoyed my windshield and doors on rainy trips. Time to just mash the rest of the metal in around the cage now for full raisin look. Well I have my work cut out for me to make it to Harlan in a few weeks. Pulled the trigger and have parts on the way from...

    Showed up at DPG with the talent tank on E. Guess the gauge was broken. This happened... Then this happened... https://instagram.com/p/BClvaTXqrzI/ Left looking like this... Hit the garage this morning to begin working on it to assess the damage and lose some weight and now it sits...

    With the DPG ride postponed, I took the opportunity to hit the shop and get some more work done. Checking wheel bearing preload Replaced the hub studs with ARP's and all new hardware Got the drivers harness mounted Finished the welding on the shock mounts Started pulling Justin's trans...

    Well...hell hath frozen over...this rig has rear shocks. :laugh: I do need to go back over some of the welds where it all ties into the cage and frame.. I got the brackets burned in with pretty beads and it got progressively shittier from there. Turns out the tank was on its last few psi of gas...

    Good day of rev limiter fun at The Flats yesterday. It was pretty sloppy in the AM and got tacky later on. The sticky tires definitely made a difference from the last time I was there on the TSL's. Finally made the right ledge on Tank Trap. Still need to get the shocks and other hardware...

    Stretch's 87 4Runner - Easy E

    Going to try and get a little work done on this thing over the next couple of long weekends. Ordered some 14" Bilsteins for the back (FINALLY) so I'll have to figure out how I'm going to mount the upper end. The PO had some cut down TG shock hoops on there like you use on the front, but they...

    What psi do YOU air down to?

    Kick the tire and if it jiggles like the last resort at a bar, good to roll.
