Im wanting to keep it simple, yet effective. For sure future plans are 4.70 transfercase gears, and a spartan or lock rite front locker. Planning to do some misc things like clutch, and some lighting upgrades. thats basically it, I am happy with the suspension so far, and all the current modifications seem to be doing great.

I just worked on a first gen, replaced the frame section on the rear spring hanger

Just realized I didn't ask you how your frame looked around your rear spring hanger

Frame is in very good shape, some surface rust like all of them, but no holes or weak spots luckily

Haven't updated this in a while. I've made a few more mods to the truck.

Finally built a strong rear shock racket, luckily it hasn't broke like the last one.

Nice first gen! I just picked up an 81 that I'll be building slowly...

So I see you swapped grills, what happened to the original grill, for sale? Nice build, good seeing a Toyota born in 1982 still getting out on the trails.

Looking good man!

I still have the grill, and headlights. I'd be willing to part with it. It doesn't have the toyota emblem in it though

Received my new light switches, also I ordered my 4.7:1 transfercase gears. Should give it the reduction I need to dominate.

Swapped in some 87 4runner seats
