Also, you know it isnt too difficult to build a planishing hammer? Ours we used 4x4 tubing, a long barrel air hammer, some die's and a foot actuated valve.

Man, all that nice touch and clean up udner the hood - I'm really surprised you didn't repaint that brake master cylinder, it really sticks out now.

please dont forget this is all "MOCK UP" ... there is NO WAY i'm usin' that rusty ol' master ... come on now , you know me better then that !!!!
I'm just getting an idea of where things go .. drilling holes , and mounting "ecential" 5Z pieces into the 22R engne bay . MOCK UP ...
This will all be torn apart again .. even the cab will come off again for final welding , and prep . this is just an excersize .

ok .. working away ..
and 1 thing on the list to get done was the lower rad to engine connection ..
with the new turbo 3 core rad , there was only a wee connection between the engine and the rad .. so i ended up cutting about 3 " off and welding a "new" lip ..
and installed .. sorry .. not a good pic .
now a simple 90* to connect ..

for those of you whom have commented about the "rusty" master.. I thought I would get to the real replacement ..
2000 4Runner duel diaphram booster with the 1" master , and clutch master ..
the clutch master is close and actually touches in 1 spot .. I'm going to correct that when I pull it a part .
because of the size of the booster and the length of the studs , the original spacer is not usable . also installing the booster with the stock steering shaft the u-joint at the fire wall hits the booster .. so in order to accomplish the booster install , I pulled out a spare /84 shaft I had from my 2WD project .. the shaft has a ball socket , instead of a u-joint , making the "connection" much smaller .
swaping the whole steering column is not possable because of the mounting points
[size=2]79-83[/size]
[size=2]84-88[/size]
unbolting the lower column housing and "swaping"
the floor mount for the 83 dosnt fit the 84 lower .. so I have to "open" it up a bit ..
and with everything back together .. I now have "VERY" large brakes :) and should be able to "stop on a dime"
