Intrepidyota's '85 4runner

[Intrepidyota]

In October I bought 4.7:1 t-case gears, went on one last run before intalling them...and started having engine issues. I threw them in anyway...and then could no longer drive it. Lacking the cash to do anything at that point I parked it for a couple months. Near the end of January, with the help of a friend, we pulled the engine.



After a false start and more issues than I want to discuss, we finally got a running engine in it. We found an '89 22r with 40k miles on a rebuild, converted it to EFI and dropped it in! Got it finished up and running on Friday March 23rd at about 8 pm, test drove it, loaded up my gear, and took it wheeling on Saturday March 24th. I LOVE the 4.7's!

Fixed:






I also was able to get a good deal on one 5.29 diff, I just need to find one more cheap and I will be good to go.

5.29's should be in within the next month, after that a 13.5" bob is on it's way. Once that is done I can get some fender hoops on there...to protect my smashed fenders.

Also added Exo to the list.
