88 Toyota Pickup

[B.Harris]

the build actually started in June of 14 but heres what happened so far...
started out with a 88 cab and bed, 88 running works 22re with a top shift case, some one had all ready swapped a 84 frame,frame suspension and a ifs rear axle... all ready had a stock straight axle...

ok so here it is when i first got it, at this point i had already put 63" chevys with a double shackle, and triangulated the shocks... on 31" bfg all terains

here it is when i got 35" km2s and put trail gear shackels up front

added 3" block in the rear, moved my rears up front with a add a leaf, ifs box and high steer, 5.29s and welded diffs

Flex test with the new setup

went to a set of 36" iroks on allied beadlocks and built a bumper and sliders

Curious, what add a leaf did you do in the front? Good looking yota BTW.

 

[obullfish]

Nice Yota

 

[B.Harris]

@easleycrawler I took one of the leafs out of the factory front pack and chopped the end to make it match the offset of the rear... I want to say it was the 2nd leaf from the top

I recall seeing a 2nd gen Toyota bed on Raleigh Craigslist recently... short beds and maybe a 2wd long bed

 

[B.Harris]

ok thanks. heres an up date on battery/tool box and fuel cell mounting... had to weld tabs on to the aluminum fuel cell... first time welding something like that so not too bad.

[B.Harris]

[B.Harris]

next is a winch mounted in the rear to bring the ride height down in the rear... and all the other uses for a winch... at the moment 26" to the frame at the rear of the cab and 24.75 at the front of the door

 

[GearHead11]

Is that the TG link kit?

 

[Chris_Keziah]

It doesn't look like it, the TG kit has the link mounts inboard more on the frame side.

 

[B.Harris]

the only thing trail gear is the link mount on top of the axel every thing else is Ballistic fab

 

[B.Harris]

did a little wheeling this morning... truck is very stable and defiantly makes me feel more comfortable on tire off the ground situations

 

[1stgenxxx]

looks awesome dude

 

[Hunter44]

Love the truck! Exactly what kind of muffler/pipe are you running? Wanting to add a exhaust system on my 95, getting annoyed by the straight pipe

 

[B.Harris]

its a flowmaster 2 chamber, single in dual out. long tube headder... no cats or any thing, piping is all 2.5"
