Chris, for what is worth, I found a good low mileage 4.0 for my daughter's XJ when it's motor went south for $500 at the local boneyard. The biggest problem with the swap is reaching the bellhousing bolts on the back of the block as there's not much room to get yer hands in there.
Welcome to the Tundrabirds!
That's a good looking truck. We are all looking forward to seeing what you have planned for it but more importantly what you do with it.
That rack looks good up there, better than the factory to my eyes. We want to do something similar but will have to use the full flat version because of the extra length of the Maggie. I will be watching to see how this rack holds up for you as I'm always a bit dubious of how western powder...
Hells yeah...what kind of knucklehead gets rid of a perfectly good 1st gen Tundra? Fafhrd is going strong as ever and will be in the family for a long time.

Everything I've read and been told says that to put a locker in a LSD equipped Tundybird you have to swap out to an open diff as the ARB wont work with the LSD third member. That being said the LSD in Fafhrd is very tight (a lot like an Auburn) and I've never felt the need to go full locker...
Thank you for doing that. I have always enjoyed the trips you've shared with us and even been inspired to follow somewhat in your footsteps. It nice to see an ExPo member that is actually out there and not just posting driveway shots of their newest set of tires.
