The Dyna-saurus.

Post by 6T9rustang »

Here's a money pit that I've been working on for the transportation of the stang to long distance shows and punishing days at the track.
1976 Toyota Dyna RU15(5spd) ex-tow truck.

Aluminium ramps supplied by boat building brother. :bowdown:

Image
The light bar made up and ready for fitment.
Light bar fitted. New winch.
Image
Image
Image
New 80 series landcruiser diff centre converted to fit into dyna housing via adaption plate(notice the dual ring of studs) with 4:11 ratio. The old dyna diff was 6:17!!! Even with a 5speed already fitted it was revving hard!
