What Did You Do To Your 3rd Gen Today?

231 believer

Went from 65 to 00 faster then I could say "holysh!t". Then almost had to say it again as a Tahoe come at me in the rear view and at the last second he veered off onto the shoulder because he couldn't stop behind me. It was so close I actually prepared for impact, (the Tahoe ). I had about a full car length in front of me. I fully believe if not for my new brakes I would be reporting another lost t4r...... BUT! Not today. It Was the first time ABS ever kicked in on dry pavement,

BEST MOD EVER!!!!!!


Oh yea, cause of traffic, was a pulled over car by the police!! WTF people!!! All rubberneckers can bite a bullet as far as I'm concerned.

Unique looking bumper, aren't you heading to Moab a week early?

Gonemoab this week. Rock therapy next week

Nice looks good man. What are your clearances from the IC?

Winch sits about an inch away from the IC.

 

[Taylor20]

Lifted it, finally! Pics later

 

[IdahoAngler]

Changed the fluids in the rear diff, transfer case and manual transmission. Front diff had to wait...don't have a 12mm hex bit. :rant: Ordered one yesterday.

Finally got the e-locker wiring done in the 96. No pre-wiring and no locker ecu.

I did find this cute little light in the cluster though:

Thank goodness for all the work others have done and posted. It would have been much more difficult without their informations, diagrams and peoples' input on how well the ideas worked.
Time will tell how well I was able to interpret it all...

Got the headlights in...

TRS H1 bixenon projectors, and OSRAM nightbreakers in Rumin Sport housings.

 

[montana_jeepn]

Did a compression test and deckplate mod.

Drove to the store than found myself by the lake with the ball on my hitch in the mud. Those lights look.. Amazing.. Brilliant. Nice job.

DPDT relay with factory switch install?

 

[xcmtb83]

Scored a fully functional 4.30 e-locker. $55 for the carrier and $65 for the housing.

DPDT relay with factory switch install?

Pretty much. I used:

For the diff light I started here, from shinyblackdeer:
http://www.toyota-4runner.org/1480759-post141.html

I also got some terrific info here, from BigFishAllDay:

And here, post 11, from black taco:
E-Locker Wiring Help Please - YotaTech Forums

And I've started putting stuff in my thread too, posts 1855, 1861, 1879...I'll get more up later:
habanero's 1996 4Runner Build-Up Thread - Page 94 - YotaTech Forums

And this help me figure out how to get the diff light to work rather than use the lock light indicated in the dpdt relay diagram:

I've also got to find some terminals to fit the switch so I can light it with the dash lights.

That Radio Shack DPDT relay was on clearance for a little over 3 bucks....

 

[GhostDog]

Finished up my sliders and welded them on.

Cool!...I am black_taco over at yotatech. I admit, the dash light wiring is a little confusing if only relying on the diagram.

I thought you did a great job with subbing the Dick Foster dpdt diagram switch with the relay. Perfect! It sure made life a lot easier for me!!

I only varied by leaving the sensor wire out of the dpdt wiring diagram all together. Instead I connected it straight to the wire from the 8th pin of the tan connector that I'd added in. So everything is wired to match your really cool diagram except the sensor wire and I use the cluster light pictured rather than a separate light.

Thanks!

 

[xcmtb83]

Cool...I also used the dash light.

Broke the other rear shock....leaving me with no rear shocks

car seat anchor installed-

Well i did this yesterday but whatever-

We had nowhere to anchor the safety straps, so I found this kit on ebay for around $10 & it worked out great!
