| Yeah well I'm on the hunt for parts. If I can find a deal on a 86 with EFI i will jump on it. But for what I plan to to with it I'm leaning to the run what I have. I'm still learning about this Toyota stuff. Its not like a jeep but so far reading up on Toyota's on the pirate and the many other site. As for my toyota it is at my shop with a cover over it till I figure what I'm going to be doing. That and I'm trying to buy a house and the piggy bank that was for my Rigs and maybe a trailer are know for the kitchen that needs to a new range top dishwasher and frig. So no toyota parts till bonus and tax season. But that give me time to do more build planning and learn more about Toyota's

I did not see you had the toyota, high steer and rear springs up front will be your cheapest solution for good flex |

Yeah thats what all the Toyota guys like to do in the front and the guys with the older motors run propane. I want to see if I can patch fix the frame and run it till I have the money to invest in a tube chassis or maybe find a old frame and start fresh and build a clean strong trail only rig that I can build for the rocks and hardcore trails to I can get back to enjoying my Yj a little more. Having the spool in the rear is great for the trails but the cops give me the evil eye when I pull up to the gas pump.

You should try the carb on the truck first many people run the stock carb with a few minor tweeks with no issues offroad. |
