1993 Toyota 4X4 Turbo LS1 Drove it home tonight!! Not bad for a 6 lb spring. All the gauges and cluster lights work! AC all wired in just need to make lines. Little cleaning and some wire tucking (and a 10 lb spring)and off to the painter!!

The turbo is a Garrett and I am running 60# injectors. The drive shafts were simply GM on one side to Toyota at the ends.

I had a 98 Toyota truck with a SBC 400 cam, intake, headers, and I beat the hell out of it for 6 years. I only broke it once.....trying to pull a BIG boat out of the water I got BAD wheel hop in the sand even then I just chipped a tooth on the pinion and I still drove it. It is after all an 8" diff with 4 Pinions and 31 spline axles.....Stronger than the F-body the motor came from......But time will tell.....

I am sure there is an electronic transfer case that could be used I just happened to have this one, thus I had to make the shifter for it. The drive shafts I simply took measurements and took 4 drive shafts to a drive shaft place. Front and rear from Toyota and Blazer.....Made 2 Custom shafts using the shaft ends. Turbo was a blown up STS turbo, had it rebuilt and installed it by making custom exhaust and pressure pipes. Any other questions feel free to ask....

Shorty headers, they fit and are better than long tubes with the turbo. I honestly got it registered less than a week ago, I am still seeing what is going to break...LMAO I love wheeling, and I will do some before I paint it...after I paint it I hate getting it scratched in the woods. Thank for the compliment...

That is just badass. I will be interested in seeing how well the axles hold up. Might want to snorkle that intake for the turbo. I would love to have one like this only without quite so much lift. Can't see real well, but is it still IFS?

Nevermind, I can see a little bit of A-arm on a couple of the pics. So I will be fascinated to know how the frond diff and axles especially deal with some serious 4x4 launches.
What kind of wheels and tires are on the way??

Guessing you used a passenger side drop NP241 transfer case? What did you do for the VSS sensor. And did your mechanical Speedo cable for your Speedo hook up to the case? Doing a similar swap on an Isuzu trooper soon.
