4x4 North

I might as well Post up this garbage too

Been in the new shop maybe two weeks and already getting things piled on it

started with a bunch parts left over from a couple scrapped projects and a samurai truck cab

parts list ls 5.3, 4l60e, prototype northwest fab landcruiser black box combo fourteen bolt rear and landcruiser front axle

cab the day I brought it home.

Grabbed a piece of I beam from work and got busy cutting some 1.5x3x1/8 wall tube

After slinging some crossmember in there it was time for axles

Rear got a narrowed 14 bolt in the pics it was sitting on 60 series land cruiser springs. But they proved too long and it now sits on Toyota 4Runner springs

This came in a tmr shipment the other day. Third one I’ve bought as I sold the last two. So I opened it up and installed this one

It’s a moulded piece as well as having the different diameter outlets

not really liking the clamps that came with it and will probably change them out for a silicone hose style clamp

That's one way to make sure you make progress, actually install the parts rather than selling them to customers.

Is that prototype LC BlackBox something you got used? Or were they hoping you'd run it as part of their prototype testing?

I originally got it as part of their prototype testing and I know the output bearing and shaft have changed now in the production model. for all i know it will end up being a 3k paperwieght

Pulled these out of the box of goodies I’ve got stashed at home

Those look nice.

Stripped them down and just installed the shock bodies to give me a perspective on where the upper shock mount will end up and how much uptravel i will have without putting the shocks thru the hood looks like I’m probably going to tip them back 12-15 degrees to give me more room in the front of the engine bay.

As you can see thinks are tight up front.
