KidV's 1985 4Runner

[KidVermicious]

Have u checked out offroadsolutions.com? They carry harnesses and conversion parts. Bummed about the Bastard... Sorry KV.

There's actually a couple different companies making conversion harnesses. They're all outside the budget though.

Oh come on....every good housewife needs a mall crawler :bigok:

So does this mean the 85s going?!

 

[KidVermicious]

Negative. That fat lady sung a couple days ago.

 

[mikebontoft]

X 2 are you still buffing scratches out of the wife's car or something?

 

[KidVermicious]

I know, build thread fail, sorry guys. I got sidetracked after the Moab trip by all the honey-do's I'd been neglecting, and now there's going to be a baby on Thursday and I don't know when I'll be back to this.

I did manage to find an uncut factory motor harness and got it installed. Most of the exhaust is in too, but I need to add another O2 port behind the cat and have a shop make me a particular bend to get everything to line up. Then find a time that Mike and I can get together and finish the adapter harness. But other than that, everything is done.

Post a heads-up in this thread when you're intending to work on your 4Runner, and I'll help if I can.

I have quite the selection of those crap scotchlok connectors...
















Just kidding. Soldering and heat-shrink tubing only.

At 2am this morning, yup. Nine pounds and 21.5 inches of healthy boy. I'm home for couple minutes to get showered and a bite to eat.

I thought this was a 4Runner build thread, not a Kid building thread??





But seriously, Congratulations.
