I would kill to have a 3rd gen Toy

[Lean540]

Tyrota, the only way to go!!!!

[Tyreeshaffer]

Is this truck on craigslist now? It looks like the exact same truck

[FirstGenToyMachine]

@Tyreeshaffer nope not mine

[vwkoolaid]

I'm quite positive this is my old Toyota wish I never sold it!

[FirstGenToyMachine]

@vwkoolaid is your name tyson? cause I got boxes of NOS OEM parts with the truck with "Tysons truck parts" on them. or the guy I bought it from in langley who never told me about the cracked frame. :0

a frame swap later and I'm laughin

[ismoketobacco]

air down u will creep up that

[FirstGenToyMachine]

@ismoketobacco They're as low (10psi) as non-bead locked wheels can handle without a chance of the bead popping off.

Don't tell me how to wheel

[greendayfan199]

@FirstGenToyMachine way to be man, i hate when people try and tell me how to wheel

[raganriley]

Hey awesome truck, what kinda tires/wheels those?

[Graeme234]

coolest shit lest wheel man

[london1817]

cool truck man! Great driving skills as well !

[misterbeastliness]

cool truck dude. i've got an '85 with 5.29s locked front and rear, almost (off) road ready. just wondering if you're running a 22r or a swap (sounds 22r), seems to have decent power for turning those 35's anyhow

[FirstGenToyMachine]

@misterbeastliness its got a 22re swap. oversized pistons, rv torqer cam.

[yougoo9116]

excelente, ustedes si que saben como usar una toyota, sin necesidad de maltratarla (aunque ya sabemos que aguantan todo)

[BLACKLACDTS]

love it! i just got a 86 4x4 i have plans for. are you dual cased?

[FirstGenToyMachine]

@BLACKLACDTS no dual case but I have 4.7's in my single case, thats the same ratio as dual 2.10 cases. I wanna put duals on one day, so I'll have 2.10 and 4.7, thats 9.87 just through the tcases!

[BLACKLACDTS]

@FirstGenToyMachine yea man you could point the truck at a obstical and then get out and watch it crawl over it without you even drivin! lol nice yota i cant wait to get my project goin!

[FirstGenToyMachine]

no bob on it. just a regular 75% bondo shortbox. I moved the rear shackle frame mounts back about 5" so it may look bobbed

[channeljaycob]

Hay mate have you bobed the tail? Love your hilux! I got a 82 im building here in australia more strickt on read laws here tho

[MonkeyBrainSushi]

Nice truck.....you running 35's?

[RandomDuckk]

did the 63 inch chevy leafs fit with little modification?

[FirstGenToyMachine]

@RandomDuckk cut off the old hangers, weld on new (fabbed up) ones on the flat of the frame. make sure the placement of the hanger allows the leaf spring center bolt to be plumb-bobbed to the center of the bumpstop on the frame (have the leaf spring bolted to the hanger while tacking it in place). mount the shackle mount 4" or so back from stock, you just want so have a 90 degree shackle angle for best travel.

[RandomDuckk]

@FirstGenToyMachine ookk thanks

[SamuraiJoshua]

Nice Toy, Im up on eagle ever so often too, sometimes with Kenny and Brennan. iv got some vids on mine of eagle too with the new diesel in the sami.

[urlocalkream]

Love that truck man. I have a 90 4x4, 4 inch lift and currently running 31s on it. What size tires and gearing do you have?

[FirstGenToyMachine]

@urlocalkream 35" interco truxs m/t with locked 5.29's

[FirstGenToyMachine]

cheyy 63" rear leafs with beefy 6.5" shackles. and the fronts are 4" lift springs. I have the highsteer swap done too. If I could go back and do it again, I would have used the rears up front and welded my steering box just alittle more forward for it. rear up front would be alot softer and comfy.

[taggingsane]

what kind of lift is on that thing
