do a rear coil set-up with traction bars...then shorten and angle the frame closer together in the rear. it will help with gettin hung up on shit and give you better clearance out back.


Extreme 4X4 did it to an s-10 i think http://www.powerblocktv.com/sites/xtreme/

 

I love 4X4 build threads. I am going to ditch cars here soon I can feel it.

 

Well if i went that route i would go airshocks instead of coils. Also you would need more then just traction bars. That would only keep the location of the axle but nothing to prevent it from rolling. Either a 4 link or a 3 link with panhard. I was going to do a 4 link but didnt have the funds. haha and if i did that i wouldnt even have a frame back there. Id just chop it off right behind the cab. My Frame is already shortened by about 6inches i think.

 

This is how you build a 4x4. Needs more motor though lol.

 

Build looks good Tony. You're missing part of your cage though. haha I want to build another sas'd truck. I'll prob do a 4runner next time around. ot but let's go hit some jumps on the bikes.
Not necessary. That's why it's called rockcrawling.

 

I can't lie, I loved it before this build haha.


Either way, good luck and post tons of pics.

 

Slower? sheesh.. you can already crawl all over the place without touching the gas.

Are you thinking of regearing the tcase?

 

yup put some 4.7 gears in the last t-case. Im about 188:1 crawl ratio now. My dads FJ40 is 280:1 and its a world of a difference when you are doing them hard trails. Haha plus i just want to be slower then my dad so i can rub it in his face. With the 4.7 i think its like 300:1 or something.

 

R u running a 4cyl or V6? I don't know how much$ ur going 2 spend on motor work but you can go various routes with HP!
