If I were you I woulda taken the warn hubs and sold them and found some factory aisin hubs. I have never broke one and I'm spooled in the front with 39.5 iroks. I had warns on my daily 4runner with a 3 liter and broke 2 warn hubs before I put factory aisins on it and never broke another one. Not dogging on what you did just saying you may wanna keep an eye out for some cheap factory ones. or IFS ones and buy the Trail gear chromoly hub gear and ur set. I know I need to step up to those here soon

yeah hows that motor do in their my buddy had one he was gonna swap into his truck but then traded the whole shebang for a banshee he blew up first trip out. I know another guy who put one in his 94 4runner he bobbed sased with narrowed 60's and turbo'd and it was outrageous.

Its going good for free motor. It's not a beast but it at a decent power,definitely sings in the higher rpm range I thought about running a turbo motor. And still might in the future. Your buddy have any video of that runner?

It and just brought it home to clean out and up.....when i opened it up this fell out. From a 84 montero and will be a perfect addition to my truck. I needed a volt anx oil pressure gauge and i get to a tiltmeter ontop of that.

Thats such a sweet find for a classic truck.
"And yes I realize I just called a vehicle from the late 80's a classic"

Well after going on the snow wheeling trip on newyears day with the group i saw how important and nice it is to have onboard air. For tools lockers and airing back up. Since there are two ways to go about doing it and i saw both ways in action i decided it was time to start my next project for the truck. The first option was i stall a electric air compressor with a storage tank. The second option converted an old air conditioner pump and can be used with or with out a storage tank. I choose to go with the second option as i already had sevral a/c pumps that will work for my engine at my disposal. So starting this project hasnt cost me a dime yet. First i found my parts from the parts shelfs. Hard to believe it but i had the belt laying around too. I had to put the bracket on first than the pump cause of clearence with the radiator. I also had to repair the electic magnet ground wire on this pump. So my soder job wasnt caught on camera either. About a half inch clearence all the way around the pump. Fits perfectly :-) Now i just need to source an oiler and a seperator. Pressure switch. A storage tank and two T's and the rest i believe i have.
