Mike, I feel your pain. The temptation is very easy to get something that you can take out "now." My van sat for almost a year while I searched out a new front axle and steering components. Having purchased an older 4x4 van, I have A LOT of things that need to be worked on and addressed. It...

Sent you a PM...

Linda, great photos and stories. It was great to meet you and Pepper. Hopefully we will see each other again soon... :sombrero:

What he said...

Kevin, That was cool! I need another hobby, like I need a hole in my head. But that looks really tempting... :sombrero:

You mean the article with "Van Artsdalen?" That was a good article. I am going to have to re-read it and look for your name. You should come up for the Butch Van Artsadalen paddleboard race in June...

Wow! That was a quick turn around from the one in Colorado to this... Congrats!!! AND... I echo everyone else's sentiments, PICS!!! :victory:

Sent you a PM.

Thanks! That's a great idea!

So, how much work would be involved converting a leaf-sprung 1988 to this setup? :drool::drool::drool::drool: Need a donor vehicle? :chef:

So, when I owned my Toyota, I used only Toyota parts. There is a great guy in New Mexico that gives people a discounted rate, usually wholesale. The reason I bring this up is because I know realize that I will more than likely do the same with my 1988 Ford E350. The main reason for prompting...

To mirror a bit what dsw4x4 said... 1. Gear Vendors, or just generic overdrive unit. This won't be needed. Especially because the 7.3 came with the E40D (i believe), which already has a factory overdrive. Gear Vendors cost upwards of $3K, which would partly put you towards a U-Joint...

Congrats! I knew this wouldn't last long. I was one (of the many) that emailed you. But I decided to focus on one project for now. At least that's what I keep telling myself... :sombrero:

A friend of mine with a 4wd Sportsmobile and the V10 gets around 10-12... Start thinking extremely capable RV. I only wished I got 10... :Wow1:

Justin, I may have missed it somewhere, but what size tires are you running? How have they held up so far to the Baja abuse? What psi are you running in the above picture? Thanks BTW... There is a guy in Escondido selling a 40 gallon tank from a 93 E350. You might be able to put it in your...

I would stay away from the kayak for the reasons mentioned above... I would also recommend an IRB. A well made 12' should be able to withstand a lot of abuse. Pair it with a short shaft outboard, and you can maneuver quite easily. Although I don't know if it necessarily solves the problem...

Reviving an old thread... Any update if this sold or how to get ahold of him?

That's just wrong. :drool::drool::drool::drool::drool: You're going to make me start driving around looking for your secret lair... (And I have a really good idea where to start) BTW... I dig the Tiger. Good work on it so far. Clean, simple and pure function just like your Tacoma...

Bummer. Receipts are the biggest thing. After talking with my insurance provider this week, they couldn't list it as a 4x4. But said to just make sure I had lots of pictures and receipts. Good luck.

I will try and get some interior pics soon... The 460 is a monster, good thing it has two tanks though! LOL.
