Currently no blocks, they're definitely an option. Not a huge fan of blocks either but may be the best option. I'll see how much the expansion leaf pack AAL adds to height, if I still want a bit more I could even go with a 1" block which I assum would have pretty minimal effect on driveability.
Thanks for the feedback, to clarify, I'm looking for a lift in the rear to match the front lift. I'm not wanting a lift to compensate for load/squat.
With a 3100kg GVWR and 1250kg payload rating the springs are not in danger of being overloaded yet, more looking for the most effective way to...
Posting for a fellow JDM Toyota fire truck owner. He's selling his beautiful adventure rig. It was just featured in Four Wheeler Magazine!
Here's the link to the auction:

DM me if you would like more info or his contact info.
It has been a while since I have updated things. Work on the truck has been slow but steady.
Just installed new heavy duty torsion bars on the front which allows me to crank the torsion bars for a little more lift and will help control the weight as well. Going to be replacing all of the...
Hi all, hoping for some feedback from those who may have tried or know about the effects of flipped shackles and how they handle the weight of a camper, especially when it comes to moderate/aggressive off-roading.
The Toyota truck in question is an unusual beast, it's a JDM Toyota Dyna:

***SOLD***
Reluctantly selling our trusty family camping rig. Both the truck and camper were purchased brand new by my grandfather. Both are in excellent condition and meticulously maintained.
The truck is a 1984 Ford F250 Super Cab with only 53,900 km on it. It has the 351 V8 5.8L engine and...
So turns out that you can’t test for a Torsen lsd differential by raising the wheels and turning them as there has to be power applied to the driveshaft in order for the lsd to engage. It will act like an open differential when just turning the wheels.
Other than taking the differential apart...
Yeah, only thing I can think is the internals may be the same? From the forum posts, it sounds like the Supra differential is also an 8” LSD with a 5:1 ratio which I’d be pretty happy about! I have noticed that the truck drives very well when when not in 4WD but chalked it up to the weight on...
Yeah, I’m confused, the pictures I found of the Supra differentials look nothing like the truck. It’s definitely a solid rear axle and not Independent. Front is IFS
Looked up the part diagrams and a LSD option is listed:
Still don’t know how to tell which differential I have though, I guess I...
The wheelbase is 232cm and the track width with my current 3rd gen 4Runner wheels and 245/75R16 tires is 169cm
Ok, so the Trans/Axle code is listed as: R351F B03B
Does that mean anything to you?
Edit: Did some googling, looks like an ASIN transmission and seems that the differential is...
