    Thanks, I do miss the power of my Scat Pack paired with the tremac tr6060. But it's a good trade off for now.

    My 2002 Tacoma TRD, doubleCab I bought new in late 2001. Its a prerunner and built about as much as i can do to it so i thought I would try a different platform.

    I have a 1979 and a 1980 both are complete and I used to drive them both. They are waiting for me to retire for a frame up restore

    Thanks.
    It's someone rare with the 3rz 4 cyl.
    I've seen maybe 10 over on our sister page.
    TacomaWorld.

    I could figure out why I seen so many people over here who's names I recognized including some friends and people I've met.
    Then it dawned on me.

    I have a 4.3 vortec motor tranny and transfer that will go in the 79 eventually. I'll have to take some picks of a stock indestructible front axle sometime

    Are they pricey for the front?
    These rears were only like $220 for the pair.
    So I bought 2 spares also.

    Going in to do an 8hr shift then throwing a few things in the Jeep and making a trip from SC to my parents new place in Ohio for the weekend.

    Hoping the wind isn't to bad and get some decent gas mileage. Only pulled about 17mpg on my last trip. :(
