Well I am putting my 4Runner body on my X-Cab frame, this will give me 10" more than the runner frame it should look something like this when done.....


build page

I got the fule tank and lines removed , cut the bed and body mounts off and got the frame rail cleaned up.

Keep the updates coming. Its nice to see something other that jeep stuff for a change.

Clay, Whats going on. I haven't seen you on here in a long time. What s new with the bronco?

Hey Frog, How are you doing? Went to disney few weeks ago. But been going to clayton OK mostly. You still wheeling?

Ya I'm still wheelin, mostly at kansas rocks disney is just to far with diesal the way it is. Sold the sammy and got an 87 4runner now. its got dual cases and a body lift W/ 33's and I put in a fuel cell. As soon as I get the axles built it is going full width SAS. I got a 44 9in for it. What axle gears do you run in the bronco?

I run 5:43 in the rear and 5:38 in the front.Its as close as you can get but I have never had any problem. I run F250 flat tops, high steer, chromolly axles and ctms with a full detroit in the front and 35 spline full spool in the rear. why are you going full width on the toy? I love toy axles. I have a 85 sr5 that I put 529s and a birfield elim kit in and I love it.

I am going full width because 1, I have the axles allready 2, toy fronts around here go for around 300 bucks 3, Stability and big old meats. I want to run a 4D on there but I have a set of 38's I will go with to start.

For gears how about a 5.89 front and a 5.83 rear? I am not sure if this is what I am going with.

Pinion gear gets awful small at those ratios. With the dual case I doubt you need that steep of gear. Are you running the F.I. 22R?

Yes its FI but has 200,000 plus miles. I just put in a new clutch and some bearings in the trans and the tcases will be checked when I do the doubler. T-case gears will come later.

Know anyone that needs an ifs front w/529s?

No, I would put that over at pirate there are alot of guys that still run IFS over there.

Thanks for Jacking this thread

Its not like anyone but us was looking at it. So kiss my A$$.
