i havent had the internet in a while but i picked up this http://toyotaminis.com/forum/showthread.php?t=5106&highlight=stout

running and driving survivor, doesnt get anywhere fast and leaks all over the place doing it

havent done much to it cept get the motor running the best it can and get it clean. tossed on my keystones cuz i couldnt stand the stock wheels.


plans include everything to make this picture real plus a 1uz, need something easier to start.



there is a absolute $hit ton of pics here: http://s81.photobucket.com/albums/j204/CB_shonuff/stout/

pictures of every page of the owners manual here: http://s81.photobucket.com/albums/j204/CB_shonuff/stout/washed/owners manual/



real work will begin this winter.



does anybody have pics of the tranny out of the truck?

 

Congrats man! Get to work!

 

you have no idea how bad i want to start in on this truck.

but i have a 77 fj40 side job i gotta finish, install the new suspension n motor in my celica before autox season is over, 5 lug swap n new custom radiator in the wagon, with a possible full retard bag ugrade, then there is some stupid crazy $hit im doing to my wheeler involving 20% of a datsun king cab and a 2in body drop w/ a exo, yes i said wheeler.


so ya, stout is some winter $hit, drool at the photoshop like i do until then. its gonna be a project where nothing is halfed assed, so im not rushing and gonna throw money at it like its a stripper.

 

Oh ****... Nuff has a ****ing stout
bwuahaha this is awesome
can't wait for more

 

well congrats man. Ya cant wait for it to looklike the second pic, that would be nice. Well you better get started.

 

that pic looks soooo real!! how the hell do you do that? can u change the color and add stuff to it?

 

thats going to be one sweet truck!! but imo the new wheels are ugly as hell.

 

since you extended the bed in front of the wheels to be the same level with the cab you should do the same to the bed after the wheel and make it lay corner to corner...photochop it to see how it looks but it could look pretty good

 

Looks sexy Nuff!

 

damn that's nice!! i like those rims!!

 

photoshop my good man. and yes i could get all stupid with it but i more want it low then anything. this was just a quick one to get my loins movin

i agree that "those wheels" are ugly as hell. but they are close to what i want. i want a brushed non clear coated fatty 5 spoke 20in+ wheel. very simple but with a lip to it. those are a lil too "busy" for me, lookin for something that looks like raw cast aluminum.

actually you got that wrong, i didnt touch the bed. i did the photoshop like im going to do the real truck. i trimmed the cab down and stretched the fender sail panel to match up with the bed line. to get it to be like in the pic should be fairly easy with a sfbd, but to lay out the rear bumper would be alot more work for that extra couple inches. since this will be my first "good" body drop, im going to keep it simple, maybe the next truck will hit ground all the way around.

 

do i have to start photoshopping rides again?

 

Hahaha. Don't let the new people know about the skills and you don't have to do it for them.

 

Anyways. It is a pretty sweet little stout. Front suspension looked a little goofy. Like the hilux's grandpa or something. We gots to get schemin' on how to get that one sittin low above those keystones. And maybe yellow the center headlights. or eyebrows. But I'd totally rock it that look. You know me. I hate painting stuff

 

Ah, I remember what happened last time.


you know from experience

 

the more i think about it the more i want to go to a 78 frame.

would make things all kinds of easier.

 

I am using the stock frame for the stout and the only real problem is the stupid drum brakes that are insanely expensive and the BIG A$$ crossmember.. mine is as low as the front will get and im gonna have to body drop it 4 or 5 inches.. sfbd woulda been awesome if i had put more thot into it.. or swapping to a completely diff frame.. but ohwell, im gonna cut the seat out completely and rock some bomber bucket seats so it should make up for the huge body drop.. (i hope)

if anyone gets bored and wants to photoshop my truck with a flat blue, i wouldnt mind im computer dumb to anything like that!

 

Nice find!

Go the later model frame, a friend in NZ is running the 89-95 model on his stout

 

so you chopped into the door. Thats what im doing with mine, its very difficult...its the hard way to make these lay bed. Extending the bed down to be level with the rocker/door is much easier. Look how the door and the "rocker" are on these trucks, to get it down that low you are going to need to do a SFBD and a conventional...
