Anyone looking to make an r150/ax15 hybrid to put an atlas/D300/black box behind a toyota motor?
I have an ax15 with no bell housing I'd let go cheap

If anyone needs a computer for a 1996 LX450 FZJ80, lemme know. I bought it for a spare on ebay like 10-15 years ago and it's sat in my shop ever since.
I think I also have the ABS stuff that I removed from a 96 LX450 as well.

Yeah your right that was not a great intro.
Let me give ya some of the back story of my F-Toy AKA "Groom Digger" so that maybe I can redeem myself a little here ;)
Me and fam have been desert junkies for very long time. When my son was about 4 years old when we got wind from a friend that the first King of the Hammers was going down and made our way out to Johnson valley for the very first time in my Turbo 4 Runner. I included some pics to show what we started with. It was a very cold and windy on the lake bed that morning but we were fired up to check out the scene having no idea what was about to go down.
we spent the morning checking out the cool F-toys there before the race started and quickly realized that we needed to convert our runner into a F-Toy. We were bit by the bug so to speak. My kids were young and I really wanted to start a project with my son so he could get some experience wrenching. Little did I know that it would be my daughter that fell in love with actually building the toy with me. My son just wanted to drive it :).
We drove up to Santa Cruze that summer to Hendrix and purchased our F-Toy chassis. I had never done anything like this build before and was totally blown away with Hendrix knowledge and F-Toy community that was so helpful in getting us going in the right direction. We had NO idea what we were getting ourselves into though. Mind you, I had just watch Ian and Jesse on extreme 4x4 build a F-toy in like three episodes so I figured it would only take me a year or so.... but it took more like five years and it was not the easy budget build, it was hard and expensive with lots of lessons learned along the way. Seems like it comes down to money and time and I never seem to have both at the same time ,so it took like what seemed FOREVER.
We finally got it done and on its very first voyage across the Mohave trail in 2013ish. We attended KOH every year since and have made many modifications and improvements along the way. Now my kids are off to collage and its just me, wifey and our two maliraptors. Our days of crawling up waterfalls and enduring the elements on the trail are coming to transition and a new build with a few more creature comforts like AC, windows and heat when needed. I honestly questioned even selling it because it has such sentimental value to the family but it goes back to the same money and time equation. My wife and I recently purchased a diesel pusher to tour the country in as kinda a victory lap for getting our kids off to college and we are looking for something that can be towed with us for easy comfortable but capable access to trails.
I have included a bunch of the build pics and us just having fun. Hope you enjoy

I’d be interested in the knuckles for sure. Possibly the diff, but that kinda expensive to ship

I'd have to look, but I think it was like $60 to ship my diff to ecgs. That was their rates though.
You just want knuckles? Calipers?

Anyone looking for a first gen pickup long bed? I'm in SW Idaho. I'm getting ready to hack it into a short bed soon if I can't sell it or trade for a short bed that's less rusty than mine.
