Oh yes...very snappy indeed! Even with my 32 x 11.5 15's I can lay a major patch...not that i'm into that type of thing, but i have done it a few times just because I can. With the 4.22 gearing and the 32's there is just enough power to comfortably cruise in 5th on flat hwy roads. i would definitely benefit with some new gearing though.

Yo guys got some work done on the truck still waiting on a sending unit tho and some glass but I got to measuring and my radiator is about 23x16inches and I have an old junk 86 Toyota Celica the natural aspirated one for those of you wondering n its FWD so it has dual radiator fans on it and they measure about 25x13inches pulled em

Tested to make sure they work one of em does gonna take the other one apart and see if I can get it fixed when the one that worked started moving air it seemed like quite a bit so Im thinking the 2 of em ought to keep any thing cool planning on just using them for when Im creeping along so heres some pics of it

Let me know what you think and I MITE have access to another set theres an 89 celica that my buddy has and Im hoping it has the same fan set up if any ones intrested

But I have a question guys Ive been trying to decide what to do for seats in this truck and have came down to 2 possibly options
1. Suspension seat out of a Gen I Raider/Montero
2. A set of nice bucket seats that arent really buckets but have the console thats part of them in the middle I wanna call it 60/40 buckets but I dunno

So back to my question any one got a suspension seat base theyd be willing to hook me up with for a lil bit of green stuff? Or has any one tried using the suspension seats in the Mighty Max's/D50's? Any one forsee any problems with using the suspension seat in the truck cab?
