The S-EXPEDITION, my old 98 supercharged 5.4l expy... man this thing was a beast it had a 4in rancho lift, headers, dynaflow flowmaster, 35 bfg all terrains, heavy duty transgo transmission upgrade and procharger supercharger... all done by the master, ok I did the work RIP SEXPY

My trusty ol' 86 4runner when first bought it had a chevy 307, carbed with a holley truck advenger carb, 14bolt rear dana 44 front... ran like crap... I got my hands on an 80s tbi and harness installed it in the parking spot my sexpy was parked in the last pic, and it ran like a raped ape... then the head gaskets blew as well as the block cracked while in AZ... kinda got a little hot, Pic was taken in AZ

My fix for the cracked block and heavyness of a v8, a 4.3l vortec v6 out of a GMC Jimmy, I spent 2 days pulling the wire harness apart learning it and wiring it to work with the ignition on the yota... i still have nightmares about it... suprisingly this had a ton more power than the v8, I could roast those 36 hmmvee tires with that spooled 14 bolt in the back

Climbing a tree in my back yard in GA, with that ram on there I could turn the wheel lock to lock with my ...

The 91 blazer, this was a monster and I miss this truck the most, has arb air lockers front and rear I still look for it to come up for sale in the states... if I ever find it I am buying it back because I want to put a 4bt cummins in that monster
