I have all my parts just need more T&M. My Sammy has Rocky Road coilover kit w/16 inch fox coilovers 22r/w56/2case 5.29`s 37" IROK. Planning on propane. Any pitfalls to installing toy drivetrain? Can't wait to show up all the Toyota boy's around here! Semper Fi

Sorry,First time in an online forum. I will try not to look like a tool! Buddies made atempt at high country this weekend,no luck,2 more weeks. Only had one rollover and busted a sector shaft.

I'm working on pics.I really like the way Lostsamurai turned out.I bobbed from the front seats back and went full tube.Worked awesome with 1.6L and Toy axles.Should be just right with the extra ponys from the 22r.

I decide to build a aluminum dash this weekend,Should be nice.I was able to retain the heater and defrost for some winter wheelin.Anybody who needs a dash for a 92 is welcome to it.I also have a straight front clip minus the hood.Debating on wether to narrow the hood or go fiberglass.

Never thought about a TJ kit should work pretty good.I have buddys using TJ coils on there toys.You should look into A weight jack to adjust preload. Speedway motors has some inexpensive ones we use for our dirttrack cars.

I might have a line on some 14" Fox airs,I'll keep you posted.I like the airs but I got such a smokin deal on my coils I had to do it! In other news I won my class in RC crawling this weekend and my son got 4th. The kid has skills.

Just received e-mail about thr rc crawler.There are three main classes,Scale,2.2(wheel size),and Super.I'm running 2.2,Seems to be the most popular.The technology explosion over the last year is unbelievable.Check it out on www.rccrawler.com.Rules are on the usrcca website.Our locals just started and we have had almost 40 people competing at the first two Grand junction events.
