I had to move to tiny tits... Not into the grapefruits in tubesocks and if they touch my forehead while im going down on her i usually get up and leave the retirement home. Last week i got home and there was a set of dentures in my underpants when i stripped down to shower. Guess thats why the bj was so good?
:barf:

I've learned not to ask for proof

Spent my motor $ on 17" kmc enduros and iroks.

Couldnt mount 2.5 rear coilovers without a definite reference for clearance...Its tight, even w a 64" axle and 4"@center skinnier rear frame surprisingly. 4.75" backspacing is what causes anxiety. But itll be nice to steer locked up...

At least itll look nice while flowers/weeds grow in the engine bay

At full droop(8.5 down/5.5 up @ 24.375" on "37s") my front axle moves 3/4(3/8)" to drivers. Upper link worked perfect, doesnt rub inner frame, but is way outboard for continued motor options...
 
Hi,
maybe I missed one info. Your first plan was the 4WU kit with the 1UZ engine, right?
Why you changed your plan? I know that the exhaust was hitting the upper link mount, but is it really that hard to modify the upper mount or the exhaust and stay with the 1 UZ?

I'm asking because I wrote Brian allready some e-mails because I'm planning also front and rear 4WU with 1ZU swap.

You can totally do it, but in ca we have super strict cat and o2 sensor location laws im pussing out on. Its actually the large(wide) oil pans on the tranny and engine hugging my driveshaft thats the issue, not 4wu parts/design. I like to go 75 to moab and back in 4wd(accident), so my diff is almost exactly where the tcase output is off centerline(perfect driveline angles@4-5 degree caster). The auto dipstick on a 5vze taco i built nearly got kissed w dana 60 diff offset, so this would most likely be a potential issue for my axle setup.

Plus, i keep braggin about my 'japanese onetons', so i better stick w 3rz power to ensure i dont have to eat my words:flipoff2:

Allright I understand.
I don't care about smog restrictions. I'm trying to build (for me) a 4 Runner with the best Toyota Parts to racing here in Europe. We have more mud/wood that rocks.
What would you recommend me? I have a set of Landcruiser 80 Axles, should I center the rear Diff or just stay as it is? I'm worrying about driveline problems.

Two u joints and a flat pinion is fine on an 80 rear. Im sure the torque on a 4.5i6 in the 93+ 80 is similar to the 1uz and an 80 i worked on recently weighed 5160 w a plate rear bumper and sliders(otherwise stock).

I got a 22r ill give ya.:flipoff2:
In all honesty I could probably get you another 4.3 for cheap/free
Go with a 4.3! I have mine running I can show you what 4.3 and 4l60e feels like on 37s and soft alcans
I really like the scpi 4.3, but i sold it.

I drove to ski resorts in high school in my parents 4.3astrovan and we had a ski boat with it too.

Im getting close to 20mpg w A/C on in an 08 4wd/4door 4.0 taco. It does NASTY sideways burnouts too:)

Im getting a 3rz though, its awesome. Just look at the 975hp(na) motor in the scion trd nhra car!
 
I will if you take off the 44s and carve whatever size you want into a set of 35s and run em.:flipoff2:
Shit, I should at least get to run 37s like your going to...

I just meant the toyota motor bottom ends are SOLID!!! The 1uz up til 94 is bulletproof(not that later years arent but the rods on early motors look like a carillo H beam part):flipoff2:

And i always drive the lexus against my son in the Srunner on gran turismo:grinpimp:

On a side note, its 103 in the shop and my balls are currently so saggy there dippin in the toilet water here while i sit. Its a nice sensation, til you think of whats in the water:laughing:
