Its a smittybuilt light bar. It was only attached at two points at the bottom stock so I added two more tabs on the main bar to attach it to the bumper too. The lights used to bounce around and drive me insane but now they're rock solid :)

I guess its a plus the condom was still sealed... Nice X, I've had a soft spot for them since my parents had couple when they were new.

Front lockers are generally not good ideas on IFS vehicles. It puts undue stress on the CVs and makes them go pop. Autolockers are especially bad in the front as they make it almost impossible to turn. If you don't want to go rock crawling and just stick to moderate trails like you said, a...

Oh that's clever ntsqd. Good idea with the string.

I'm jealous of you guys. I don't know anywhere close enough to my current house to make a nice day trip worthwhile.

I "modified" the CD player my truck came with to use it as a place for my HAM radio. I also made a Hi-Lift mount and a shovel mount out of Yakima bar mounts and some longer carriage bolts.

Flex? What's that?

The Aussie is in the rear right now. I have just the ring and pinion for the rear gears and the whole differential and housing for the front. Thanks for the help so far everyone.

Once I find someone to go with and a place to go. I need to try out my locker!

So you're telling me that you've had no real problems with your 235s?

I've got a 22R backed with a 5-speed. Currently I have All-Pro sliders and plan on getting the Marlin rear bumper at some point along with some sort of tube-ish front bumper and a Budbuilt cross member.

Exactly, the Luxo-Cruiser needs more bling. Maybe a chromed snorkle would set it off

I have an 87 4x4 pickup with OME suspension, ball joint spacers and an Aussie Locker. Currently I'm on 31s with stock gearing (4.10s). I have 4.56s sitting in my garage that I got a good deal on but haven't installed yet. I also have a set of 16" tacoma rims waiting for tires. I planned on...

I miss your chrome wheels

That looks like a mighty pricy combo lock there buddy :)

I'm pretty sure you'll want to regear for those tires. I think 4.88s or 4.56s are what you want.

I'll second that. An oil cooler will pull some heat out of the engine and you can relocate the oil filter to a easily accessible area. If you go this route, be sure to get a set up with a thermostat, you don't want to cool the oil too much.

You should grab me a diesel swap while you're over there. This may be sorta blasphemous here but I'm a big fan of the Nissan Patrols...

Looking good man. Your truck looks much nicer than my 87 pickup does, haha.

I have a set of wheels from a 2001-2004 Tacoma for sale. Wheels are all straight with not bends. Some minor scrapes on the face of two of the wheels. The white stuff seen on a couple of the wheels is spackle from when the garage ceiling got redone, it comes right off. I would also be willing...
