1985 Toyota 4 Runner Crawler
'99 Chevy Vortec 4.3, 4 speed auto 4L60E w/ shift kit mated to Toyota t-case.
T-case is a twin stick Marlin Crawler 4.3:1 case. Aussie Lockers front and rear with Cryo treated 5.29's.
Longfield Super 30's, Longfield 4340 inner hub gears, chromoly knuckle studs, hub studs, etc.
3 Link w/pan hard rear, FOX 2.0 Shocks. Extended wheelbase, dovetailed. Leafs up front with high steer and hydro assist.
35"x16"x15" Super Swaper Boggers on 15x10 steel. May or may not include Milemarker 9500 front and Warn rear winchs.
Tooo much to list, and a good bit of spare parts. The Vortec had 55,000 miles on it when I put in around Sept. 2006. From there it has maybe a max of 1000 trail miles.
Transmission was a complete professional rebuild with an aggressive shift kit. (It will chirp the Boggers on dry pavement going from 1st to second)

I got this Virginia truck from a friend around Nov. 2004. From there I rebuilt the thing from ground up, replacing anything and everything until I got it all done in August 2006.
Sept 2006 is when it hit the trails for first time. I have wheeled it from PA to AL, and it has taken everything in stride.

Currently it needs some minor work to get it running. I had swapped in a 10 gallon fuel cell with foam inside, which has been a nightmare. The foam has degraded and was clogging (BOTH) fuel filters.
I have just pulled the foam out and tossed it, and put 2 new fuel filters in place. I am guessing all fuel line needs purged/cleaned, along with fuel cell and probably fresh high octane and it should be good again.

I am just at the point that I am tired of working on it and there are not many locals that wheel enough and can keep up on the trails.

Also consider, I am looking for a Polaris RZR, or a Polaris Sportsman. (looking to buy new, but never know what you may find)

I have over $20,000 invested in building this rig right from the ground up.. seems like a lot, until you start doing what I have done to build it.
I didn't skimp on cheap parts just to get it together. I am fully aware I will get nowhere near what I have in to this thing, and would make a lot more parting it out, but that is not something I want to do.

All that being said, I will not entertain low ball offers. If you are looking at this, you know what it is and what these cost to build. This is not a Kelly Blue Book vehicle.

Toyota Pro/Celebrity race switching from Scion tC to FR-S [w/video]

Thu, 07 Feb 2013

Toyota has announced that the rear-wheel-drive Scion FR-S will replace the front-wheel-drive Scion tC as the racecar used by actors, singers and celebrities of all grades in its annual Toyota Pro/Celebrity Race. It's the first time a rear-drive vehicle has been used for the event in 27 years, with the tC having been in use since 2005, and the FWD Celica before that. This year's race takes place on April 20th amidst the festivities of the Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach weekend.
The racing FR-S, which debuted today at the Chicago Auto Show, won't be left stock either, but rather outfitted with a range of official Toyota Racing Development parts and equipment, such as a stainless steel exhaust, new coil overs and springs, upgraded brakes, a bigger air intake and 18-inch wheels, not to mention all of the safety equipment required to keep the celebrities and pro drivers safe. The company says the performance mods have lifted horsepower to 210 from the standard car's 200. Check out the build process for the cars in the video below to see just how much work's been done.
The Toyota Pro/Celebrity race is also about more than just letting celebrities and pros do battle on a road course. The spectacle helps raise money for "Racing for Kids," a non-profit charity that supports children's hospitals in the US.

Toyota Avalon celebrates 20 years with Touring Sport Edition

Mon, 27 Oct 2014

The Toyota Avalon may not have the sportiest image on the market. Heck, it doesn't even have the sportiest image in the Toyota lineup. But the Japanese automaker is out to fix that perception, at least a little bit, with the launch of the new Touring Sport Edition.
Announced together with some minor updates to the entire Avalon line - consisting primarily of enhanced safety and infotainment systems - the Avalon XLE Touring Sport Edition celebrates the 20th anniversary of Toyota's large sedan line. Setting this special edition apart are a black paintjob, HID headlights, LED daytime running lights, 18-inch alloys (similar in design to those on the Scion FR-S) and an interior decked out with perforated leather with dark blue trim... plus, of course, the requisite special badges inside and out.
Only 2,500 units will be offered with a $37,170 sticker price that puts it near (if not quite at) the top of the Avalon range that's capped by the $41,700 Avalon Hybrid Limited. Pricing has increased on most models by around two percent, and you can scope out all the details of the updates to the full range in the press releases below.
