Steve's '94 Toyota x-cab mild build

[sixstringsteve]

that looks like an april fool's joke to me. I don't care how hardcore of a future missionary you think you are, you don't ask for people to refer to you as "brother moore" in a classifieds ad. Sucks to be that guy. He's probably getting a million calls asking for brother moore, about a truck he doesn't have for sale.

sorry I forgot it was april fools today

 

[N-Smooth]

when i saw the "Brother" part i knew it was a joke. plus if it was a legit ad it would be like ten grand like every other yota out there

 

[AlienXtx]

Damn ive been missing out, did you sell your truck too?

 

[sixstringsteve]

got the front hanger tacked in. I'll be burning it in and gusseting it tonight. PM me if you wanna swing by and help.

Damn ive been missing out, did you sell your truck too?

Yup. sold the '81, then got a tracker, then sold it, and now I'm building this

If I have time on saturday after I pick up my new truck I will swing over to help

where on earth are ya going to put it

to your guys paint responses, i have used some undercoating from superior, i am trying to remember the name. i know the can is black and has a red car on it. i will do some research and get the name.

i realy like it it cleans up realy well when you spray simple green on it.

 

[Fuller]

here it is. http://www.sjdiscounttools.com/fib348.html it is about 8 bucks a can but it is great stuff.

have you looked into u-pol raptor liner ? its about 100 bucks for a kit and it holds up realy well to UV

 

[sixstringsteve]

I've used that undercoating stuff before. Totally different product than self-etching primer.

 

[sixstringsteve]

I think he's just going to put it on top of the 260Z

Got a lot done today, but not enough. I got the shackles mounted, front hanger on, and springs hung. It was all the little things that slowed me down, 2 hours to get the leaf spring bushings out, 2 hours to try to make my ubolt flip kit work (it doesn't work). I took some pics, I'll post em up on Sunday. There's no way I'll be ready for HITR

2 hours to get the leaf spring bushings out

Awww man thats what im worried about when i do mine in my XJ:sick: I really hope mine are not this hard,i have been putting it off and putting it off in fear of how fetchin hard its going to be because i dont have all the sweet tools to do stuff. I have a hammer and a bag with a few wrenches in it Back on topic: i would like to stop by sometime and check out your build

 

[sixstringsteve]

come on over anytime. Don't stay too long or I'll make you work on it with me

yeah i know it is diffrent, but it is great top coat product

 

[sixstringsteve]

well, I gave it a good shot, but it won't be able to make it to HITR. I'll have to see if I can "rent" brother's rig for the trail.

 

[meach4x4]

I'll rent you my '96 Tracker. It should be a lot of fun on 30's and open, eh?

 

[Max Power]

You had a good run. I look forward to future trips with you as I am about to finish my Toyota as well. There will always be another trip to look forward to.

Cool, I look forward to wheeling with you as well. We'll be in Moab for the RME BBQ, it'll be ready by then for sure, hopefully with elockers front and rear.

I'm sure it could handle the trail, but I'm kinda spoiled now.
