    Recs: late model v6 into toyota pickup

    I've been out of the world for a little while and I'm looking for advice for a later model (something like 2014 or later) v6 engine of some sort to put into a Toyota pickup, 1990 extra cab. I was planning on a Gen V all aluminum 4.3L from a 1500 Silverado, but I'm having a hell of a time...

    Thanks Marc, Correct, aftermarket tank. My guess is about 12-15 gallons? It's plastic but has been in there for some time. Probably 90s or 2000s with the conversion. Here's a pic of it from the other night. Slightly ghetto, but that's OK...

    Help me with suggestions... Mild lightly lifted Jeepster Build

    thx man! Any chance I can boogie over and use your bender one night? Do that super simple cage as outlined earlier? Just the bends and I can weld em up etc all at my place so it shouldn't take too long, I think :)

    I'll take better pics of the perches to if they were moved out. Appear stock to me. I did some reading and here some points from Pirate. Just starting to learn all about this... Looks like some of the V6 models (like this one) were updated to D44 rears for towing etc. Looks like a 3.73 to...

    Help me with suggestions... Mild lightly lifted Jeepster Build

    Thanks -- It's a '67 Kaiser. Here's a pic of the rear end. I don't mind the drums right now mostly because they work OK.... EDIT ok I just google image search and it looks like its a 44 in the rear. Cool.... Supposedly it came originally with the Dana 30 in the rear, so someone must have...

    Help me with suggestions... Mild lightly lifted Jeepster Build

    Hi all, I'm learning about Dana parts etc now that I've had this Jeepster for 3 years. I love it. I've mostly been a Toyota guy. I had a poor idea and nearly sold it a month ago (you might have seen it on KSL) and luckily the sale didn't go through as I'm ecstatic to keep this Jeepster and...

    Brakes Source in SLC?

    Thx guys... Actually Advance Auto of all places killed it locally, great price, and they even delivered! Quality stuff from Wagner which is a good brand. I also totally dialed the suspwension & steering with all new ball joints and tie rod ends from Moog. Got these through Advanced Auto and...

    Brakes Source in SLC?

    I am too... But it'll be about $200 versus $60, worth at least asking about I figure.. :) 90% of brakes seem to come from the same places. The best I remember at Henderson was for my old Saab. ABS brand, or Brembos. $27 versus $95 a rotor. Opened up the box for the ABS - they were...

    Brakes Source in SLC?

    I'm super bummed that Henderson sold their car parts business to NAPA. They were the super cheap brake rotor source in SLC! I need some new brakes for our 04 E350 van. Anyone have any recommendations on where to get? Seem to be about $80 anywhere I look. I don't think I ever paid more...

    Wanted Tig welder

    Subject says it all.. Looking for ideally an AC/DC machine but may consider a DC only machine if it is reasonably priced. Trying to keep it under $1k if possible because the machine will be used so seldom. I am aware of the cheap Chinese models but would prefer a big 3 model that is used...
