2.7 L 5spd
inchworm dual cases, 4.7s in the rear
lockright rear locker, 5.29 gears
30 spline longs
TG 5" springs



i have since made a custom exhaust with magnaflow muffler, new custom bumper with TG winch plate, swapped grills and hoods with the other 4runner, and ordered some parts to beef up the front axle

the rough edge on that last valve is my issue, tough to see in my pic though, will get better pics when the valve is out.
