    For Sale - Firm Price 4 16x8" 8 lug wheels 8 on 6.5

    I bought these wheels a couple of years ago to use as rollers for a project I was working on. Finished with them, so maybe some body else can use them. They were off a crawler and the lip is pretty beat up. They are definitely not pretty, but held air for me. $40 for the set PM or text...

    toyota ifs cv joint questions

    The build is an Isuzu trooper. I am wondering if there may be an outside chance that the Toyota cv joint may be comparable sizewize. This would allow me easier access to longer axle shafts since there are a few companies selling long travel kits for Toyota's. Isuzu uses a birfield outer joint...

    "GONE" These tires were on my amigo when I bought it earlier this year. Scored a nice set of 32's here so these need to go. Four have decent tread and seem to be in good shape, the fifth was the spare and is older. Now the bad, they are '98 date code. The tires look good but they are a...

    Isuzu Where to go from here? (tie rod)

    Your next problem is going to be the idler arm. They bend pretty easy, It won't leave you stranded but it screws with the steering on the passenger side. After that the whole center section can implode. That doesn't happen very often though. I think that if a way can be devised to put that...

    High pinion d44 in rear axle, good or bad idea?

    I have been working on retubing a ford hp 44 for passenger drop for use in my crawler. I have been tossing around the idea of building another one for the rear. My concern is with the the ring and pinion. Not sure if it is up to being used in the rear. I have run a regular 44 in the rear for...

    Time to bring my isuzu crawler back from the dead

    Made a little progress this week. First off I decided to change things up a little. I was going to add the 5" that I stretched the rear to the back of the bed area, in effect making the bed area 5" longer to match the outside stretch. After I mocked up the seating a little I decided that I...

    Time to bring my isuzu crawler back from the dead

    Here are a couple of pics of the body sides I made up. I used 14 ga. sheet. I went with 5" strech in the wheel arch and will do 4 or 5 inches in the door opening as well. I made the new wheel arch 36" in diameter, but havent cut them out yet. That will wait until i'm sure they are where I...

    Time to bring my isuzu crawler back from the dead

    I won't be using the Willy frame. It is very spindly for sure. Right now I plan on using the trooper frame since it is all ready finished.

    Time to bring my isuzu crawler back from the dead

    I'm getting sick of seeing my old rig sit in the back yard slowly decaying away. I need to either part out the good and scrap the rest or take it in a new direction. It started life as a '87 trooper. I added a '94 3.2 v6 and 5 speed. SAS in the front, waggy, chevy mix d44, and a rodeo d44...

    A smaller bore will give you more power at the expense of added pedal travel. If you go to larger bores you will get a firmer pedal but less power. You may want to try finding a longer pedal and see if that helps out any.
