Is it just me, or will about 25% of the steel on this truck be new welds? <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />
You must have the worlds best memory to be able to get it all back together after taking it that far apart...

I took about about 100 pictures and made around as many labels just removing/re building my engine.

I was just thinking, the other day, that I have turned just about every bolt in my '84 truck and even put new metal into my frame. I'm nowhere near the master of this stuff that you are, but it made me think that it's a good thing to have this kind of knowledge and familiarity with a machine that you use everyday. Much better than going down the road without a clue. My plan is to stick with the second generation truck and a first gen 4runner and work them until I'm dead or they are outlawed <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />
