I bought the truck for $75. They told me the timing chain was out of it. But I thought there might be more to it then that. So I decided to pull the engine, and put in a used 4.3. My used 4.3 is out of a astro van so I have to switch oil pans. Here is what was in the bottom of the oil pan. So much for timing chain.:fryingpan:

[BIGBEN]

yeah, that might be more than just a timing chain.



maybe.

[sglide]

what???? that thing is like brand new :hehe:

[Grandman]

You dont see it but the GMC's are parked side by side in the shop at the moment but mine runs .:D

[miffy]

your camera phone stinks, you better come and get dads camera.

Listen to mama, chances are he will forget that you have it.http://i63.photobucket.com/albums/h153/dads95yj/smiles/oldman.gif

Wasn't my phone. And anyway you had dads when I took those.:fryingpan:

[Grandman]

Maybe you should stay at work so there is an update on this post :poke:

Plus it would make more room for me if it was not parked in the garage :lol:

[MuddyPaws 3.0]

I don't see a picture of what was in there. I just see a shitty picture of something that looks like it got rolled.

I don't know what happend to the pic it used to be there.:wtf:

But it was a pick of a rather twisted up rod.

[MuddyPaws 3.0]

Well, then based on your description, I would say that the problem wasn't the timing chain.

That is my expert opinion.

:lol:

[Shaker]

:woot: It's finaly been brought back to life.:woot:

That was with out a doubt the worst vehicle that I have ever done a engine swap in. Didn't help that the engine came out of a Astro van.:banghead:

I have a couple lose ends to tie up tomarrow then I will have to go out and test the 4x4.

[MuddyPaws 3.0]

o-oh. Who's is gonna move first.

[Shaker]

Mine will be driving in stock form tomarrow. But I have alot of catchup to do with overall build.:tongue:

It will get done when it gets done, I come and help you, well I atleast give you a migraine, but my heart is in the right place..........:hehe::lol:

[Shaker]

Well I haven't had alot to show you. I got it running and have been fixing alot of 10 cent things. Like power windows and door handles and such. But what can you expect out of a $75 truck.

But I finally got my fenders and hood on it. As well as my winch bumper.:woot:

I like the roll of crapper paper in the foreground. It adds a a nice touch to a rig build photo.

[Mongo]

Doesn't the oldman have some 32 or 34's around. He's old and will forget he even had them.

[Grandman]

Shaker has a set of 33 Trxus but no way until the lift and sas are done .

[sglide]

[Shaker]

Don't let my wife know. I just got off the phone, and there is new 4:10 gears and a lockrite on the way for the 8.8 that's goine in the back. To match up with the 4:10 gears and Elocker that the dana 44 laying in the garage has.:woot:

[Grandman]

I see he dont mention the old man lit a fire under him today . If he wants that thing done for the DI run its time to get on it . SAS 4 link , regrear the 8.8 build perch mounts , build cross over stearing and some how i suspect i will get envolved . Im not very good at just watching :hehe:

Now get on the phone about those stearing parts and that set of wheels :poke:

Even with the adapters on the rear the 8.8 is about 3.5 inches narrower then the JK axle. Stupid ford parts.:fryingpan:

Ok, if you want a full size axle use a full size axle.

Out of curiosity, why did you weld the tube to the cast center section?

[pre4runner]

i think its an 8.8 thing, i've seen it done a lot. No idea why though, please fill us in.

It's just a press plug type thing, prone to spin the tubes.



edit: http://www.4x4wire.com/jeep/tech/axle/ford8_8/

[Lance-a-little]

the rear axle looks alot better now that it is painted.

[ddeadserious]

on the 8.8, the tubes are prone to spin separate from the housing, both in offroad and racing situations.

An idea for the 8.8, to push the ends out a little, is to buy yourself a super 88 kit by superior. It adds a couple inches(1 or 2) to the overall width, it gives you alloy shafts, and eliminates the c-clips. That would get it pretty close to being as wide as the jk44. Just a thought..


Looking good though.

I'm to cheap for that, so if you do it save the old shafts for me.:hehe:

Yup.

The rest of it will get paint after the new spring perches and shock mounts are on it.

I used Dodge 1/2 ton Pittman arm and drag link that I had here. But the angle is a little bit much so I think that after I get it out and do some testing I will need to change the Pittman arm.

damn, nice work. Might have to look into building an S10 if i can get 1 for cheap, ive been wanting to do a low budget build for a while now and still have some comfort.

Nice part of s 10 , theres a lot of them around cheap . To do a cheap build id put a 8.8 in the rear D 30 in the front and stay with 32 or 33 " tires

That combo your wheels would match 5 on 4.5 lock the rear and be happy .

Don't tell Shaker I told you............




SHAKER II, MADE IT OUT OF THE GARAGE TODAY!!!!!!!!!!!!:dance::dance::dance:


Thanks for all your hard work and wisdom and bloody knuckles on helping with Shaker II, Dad.... xoxo:dance::dance:


Thanks for all your hard work too Lance and Jeff.

[Shaker]

It drives.:woot:

No problems with bump steer, brake lines needed to be moved a little and the front drive shaft had some binding trouble. But that is resolved now.

So just an exhaust and she's on the road again.

I've been wanting to do this for awhile. The full size was fun but I think I will like this little truck much better.

Hater:hehe:

Due to size not brand.

[Shaker]

damn, nice work. Might have to look into building an S10 if i can get 1 for cheap, ive been wanting to do a low budget build for a while now and still have some comfort.

Thanks.

I will have about 3 grand into this one with exhaust. But it could be done cheaper. I went with the dana 44 front and long arms. To make future upgrades possible.

[Shaker]

Rock rails and exhaust.
