    Maya Rally Questions (But Maybe Not Answers)

    I know it is early yet and we are not exactly sure what you are coming up with....but I am going to throw this out there, How about some Mayan Rally stickers that participants can paste on their rigs for the event? I would be willing to paste some vinyl on my doors for the event or just a bunch...

    Well, I am planning to go, in my FJ60. If that truck isn't ready or I don't have a pile of cash for fuel there is a early 1990s Subaru sitting at my property for $350. It has high/low, 5spd and gets 30mpg! ;)

    100 Series master cylinder..yikes!

    An electrically powered M/C, um isn't that kind of un-safe? Might as well be some super old school single circuit unit. I am sure there is some sort of safety system in place in case you blow a fuse or whatever but still. Just saying

    No doubt, you can get a 60 for the price of the M/C!! LOL!

    100 Series master cylinder..yikes!

    This post and your quote is exactly why I own old trucks!!! Two grand for a M/C, make me laugh! And since it is all computer controlled you can't just toss in an 80-series or something, I am sure. I will never buy anything newer then an 80-series for this very reason. Sheesh I still can't...

    My Proffitts 1HD-FT 80 series conversion *UPDATED WITH PICS AND VIDEO*

    True enough. I think the point is a donor truck or a half cut is certainly the way to go. I will rephrase what I said above by saying I think it could be done for the $12-15k mark if you do the work yourself. if you pay somebody to do it, $18k is a pretty solid number considering the cost of...

    You talking about LinDen Engineering? There is another guy in your area who just did Volvos, his business name slips my mind though.

    ya cheers to you for putting the numbers out there for the world to see. I am sure many people appreciate that. I have said it before and I will say it again, FYI, in Panama you can buy diesel 80s all day long for $10,000. I haven't looked into shipping from Panama of a half cut or just the...

    That thing is sooo funky and super cool at the same time. It needs tons of work but it could be made to live again. I will make somebody a deal, you buy it and I will fix it up and then deliver it to Guatemala. Fixing it and delivering it is on your dime though. I would love to see the look on...

    Pre 1985 toyota SFA diesel Swaps

    My buddy has a Supra motor in his 85 4Runner. I was trying to recall the engine model but can't seem to. It has about 200hp, revs to 5k rpms all day long and gets awesome mileage. On a trip last week, the 06 Jeep we traveled with was on a 1/4 tank after a day of wheeling, the 4Runner was above...

    Which Truck is best suited for expedition??

    If anybody can tell us how good a Patrol is it would be you! 70,000ks in that truck with no major problems and as heavy as you are loaded along with the 3L....well, all I can say is who would doubt this truck after that!?
