These are some random clips of my Toyota pickup from Tuttle Creek (near Randolph, KS) and down at Disney, OK. Started out with a Toyota straight axle swap and 35" procomp xterrains... Ended up 1 ton axles (d60/14b) and 42" super swamper IROKs. Had a blast in that rig. Yes the engine was making a loud clatter but kept chuggin' away. The guy I sold the motor to called to let me know the cam was wore so much and that's why we could never get the valves adjusted right. Front springs was a home brew toy rear pack, 63" chevy rears. Running a 2.28+4.7 doubler with twin stick.
3 Link SAS Toyota 4x4
My build pictures. I have missed placed a lot of them so the pictures jump around. Trail Gear Three Link kit with Fox Air Shocks. 85 front axle with 5.29 gears, chromoly Dirty 30 axles, chromoly hub gears, Lock Rite locker, Axle gussets and truss. Dual transfer case with twin stick. Trail Gear 5'' Classic rear lift. Rear axle has disk brakes and Detroit locker. Maxxis Creepie Crawler 37x12.50x16. This is my daily driver. Just needs bumbers, rock sliders, and some body work.

85 4runner on rocky mountain loop
Shakedown run in my 85 4Runner after a year and a half build. Specs are 22R, W 56, Marlin Ultimate Dual Crawlers clocked 10 degrees, Lock Right in the rear and open in the front, geared 4.10. Lift comes from Superlift in the front with stock rears with extended shackles, add a leaf and 2 inch blocks from Auto Zone (Which I don't recommend.) Armor comes from Trail gear for the front axle and All Pro for the sliders and a heavily massaged Triple X cross member for the clocked cases. The axle wrap you hear my camera man talking about started to crush the lift blocks down around the spring perch causing the pinion to rotate up. If you look closely you can see it. I later did one of the harder lines at Kodak Rock before the damage was noticed. 63 inch Chevy's are in my near future.....
