Waylon- I have been pretty lucky in the body damage department. Ive rolled it on its side twice in the woods but it was mostly mud both times so it didn't really do anything. I was trying to get ahead of the dogs so I had a empty box. The flatbed and front bumper saved it. The last year Toyota put the straight axle in was in 1985. It had the 22re originally but I swapped out all the fuel injection for a carb intake and put a weber on.

Bird I wish you lived closer I'd like to walk around that rig of your and ask you some questions about your build up. The shorter rear I can handle pretty easy, but I'm not to up on Toyota engines, dad and I used to drag race a little but always had small block chevy engines, I'm trying to learn some yota stuff so I can rebuild this little 20r after this winter. Nice rig you got there I am gonna show my little orange yota a pic of your and tell it when it grows up it be can just like that if it eats it's veggies

Haha. Let me know how the veggie diet works out. I dont know much about the 20r just because I haven't had one but I'm sure its close to the same set up. I do know the vacuum leak does effect the motors performance quite a bit. I had a vacuum problem with the stock carb and bought a weber and its been find since. Weber eliminates most of the vacuum lines so its one less headache. If you decide to keep the Toyota motor it is a good upgrade to get a weber IMO. I found a rebuild kit for my 22r for around $300 that included most everything except new rods. If you've had any motor experience then these are a breeze to rebuild.
