Project Trail Ninja

So i have had my 1990 std cab toyota since i was 17 never really did anything to it other than some 33s and blew up two motors and drove it like i was 17 you know how that goes since it has beeen sitting since last december since i have been collecting parts to build this thing i didnt think i would ever get around to doing it but then two days ago i got a wild hair and pulled the blown motor too it down to my buddys shop and started commiting genocide on the ifs so far the frames clean and motor mounts plated will post pics sometime this weekend today its crossmember and shackle holes maybe be done heres the list of what all is being done to it..

Current work being done

83 front axle 5.29s and limited slip
marlin hysteer
bilsteins up front
sky mfg front springs
marlin duals
50 k 22re just put comp cam in it (has anyone else done this?)
rear axle 5.29s lockright
buggys on waggys in rear
lifting tranny and transfer case
schucks pleather racing buckets oh yea
35 12.50 15 radial tsls

Near future plans

bob job
dovetail rear maybe front
exocage
turbo 22re
hydro assist
diy beadlocks
bigger tires dont know what size yet maybe 39.5 iroks
9500 warn winch top priority!
and whatever else i aquire for it

heres some pics of when i first got the truck

Put a full truss on the front housing and forget about the "buggy" leaf idea, too much axle wrap. More pictures! :corn:

everything looks and sounds good. One suggestion i'd make is people might give you crap about "tearing up the meadow" not sure where your pics are from though. Anyways, your plan sounds good, maybe reconsider the rear locker though and get a selectable or weld/spool it. Oh yeah, bobby long 30 splines should definately be on there too. And don't overlook the Driveshafts either.:awesomework:

thats my buddys private property yea i spaced on the bobbys there already in my axle i was supposed to have my axle mounted today but went wheeling instead got my front crossmember on and frames all clean and my bucets mounted i like buggys i just build a quarter wall track bar got the truss on the axle covered yea i dont know about the welded im gonna run the lock right till i can get e locks next big step after throwin my engine back in is bob and dovetail and get duals in it my freind is very excite as you can tell from the last pic thanks for the input guys more pics will be comin in almost every night
