PEAK PUTTERS

i rolled my rig, now its time for a face lift and some plastic surgry to make my rig look like it did. here are some before pictures....





And heres the new cab.....






And a paint job and sas, and efi are on its way.. ill keep ya'll posted

Looks like a lot of work. I think that I would make a convertable out of my truck if I rolled very hard -- kinda hope that project never develops.

What Steve Said. . .x2

Meh it's a bit of work but it is EASY work. It lets you get to things you normally can't get to while the cab is off so you can improve and upgrade. While that cab is off I'll put the shackle tubes in the frame, it doesn't get much easier to do then while the cab isn't in the way.

yeah and its my dd so i dont know if the convertable idea is the best

Who wheels their DD? (Oh yeah.) :oops:

ahaha i just dont like driving my car, makes me feel like a soccer mom

My mini van is an '05 Rubicon.

not too bad for a soccer van

I wheeled my dd's for years... The 90 got driven everywhere including several trips to the Portland area and I was never nice to it at all. I look forward to driving to and from the beatings once again.

another day, the less it looks like my truck.......






theres another day haha
and ryan wondering what he got himself into

I'm not too worried I can always scrap your junk if it annoys me too much.


You should be worried though, I just cut your frame in half.

the frame will be back together tomorrow??? right

If you're lucky.

hahaah well im feeling pretty lucky so hahahah\

So what was the purpose of cutting the frame in half?

were doing a sas and we took my frame that has all the ifs on it, and replaced it with a straight axle frame. less cutting

The shape of the ifs frame is basically flat and actually dips down by the front body mount so the torsion bars can pass over the top. Lots of people do sas's on ifs frames but at the expense of uptravel and pitman arm clearance. The 4x solid axle and 2x frames are the same shape so they lend themselves to keeping the suspension low with plenty of uptravel.

another day, and i have one Toyota again...


Engine and tranny getting dropped back in

solid axle

it is put back together but will soon be torn apart again
