Toyota truck update for those who give a rats ass

Recommended Posts

To bad I'm to dumb to remember to take pictures, but my toyota fullsize conversion is going well. In around 10 hours I've flipped a `79 blazer on its side, cut all the drive line stuff off with a torch, cut all the toyota trucks IFS stuff off, welded in brackets and bolted the front solid axle from the fullsize blazer in place. I removed the rear toyota axle and have the fullsize axle in place and just need to get the lift blocks to hang it.

Next I'll be putting on shock mounts, hooking up the steering, replacing the toy tranny with a GM SM465 and making driveshafts.

 

The trucks total lift is 13" so far and will be capable of running 44" swampers if necessary. I'll probably keep it around 37" to be nice to the driveline though. After this stuff is done and I move it from the farm in Marietta its getting onboard air and an onboard welder/120VAC system over the late winter/spring.
