Koup's 94 Truggy Build:38.5s, duals, links, etc..
So I'm finally building another truck, tossed up the idea of building my 94 sr5, but couldnt justify ruining a perfect dd, so I bought a 94 reg cab with a "blown" motor for $300, with the sole intent of fixing the front main that puked everywhere n drop the 22/5speed/toycase in my uberly clean 88 zuk....then I changed my mind yet AGAIN and decided to just build the 94 reg cab and not care about body damage... Then the day after I got my 94 sr5 inspected, the headgasket in the 3.0 blew, so I sourced a 3.4 n decided to swap it, putting a huge damper on the trail truck build, but I've got a loooong history with my 3.0. Myself and my old man did everything except the wiring, which the auto trans harnes was cut, and i was in over my head, soooo the truck went to my old man's buddy's shop and he's doing the wiring. It should be done within the next week or two, and I cant start cutting the reg cab up, since it is my temp dd... so I'm going to start with the pics of the shit I've made for the build, since I took a million pics... enjoy!
94 Truggy build plans:
-build AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE, before using my plastic money
-cut frame 28" ahead of leaf spring mounts, build new rails off the back
-double triangulated 4 link for the rear and stretching to 108"
-sas the front with leaves from my previous 87 pickup build
-dual cases for now, then 4.7's in the rear case down the road (baller on a budget)
-junking the cancerous bed and building a flatbed
-hydro assist
-partial exo.... and you'll just have to watch the thread to see what other little touches get thrown in
