Isuzu pickup race truck build.

[Isuzupickup]

What do you mean "may have" me and my homies just talked about it tonight. Expect me there.

Took the head off the KA, it was totally the head gasket as I was told. Gonna get it inspected and resurfaced.




The block is in dire need of some honing.




And my friend getting some bomb ass head. Hahaha.

I expect to see it in person, I only have to drive 20 minutes from my place to destination daytona.

[Isuzupickup]

I should be driving this up there unless the swap interferes. Either way I'm going up there.

[sally pu]

um, awesome. this build is ridic...love the rodeo swapped front end, can't wait to see the nissan powered isuzu doing some burnouts and shit, lose those damn stickers!

[SnugglebearFoN]

Badass man this think is looking great! That engine swap is gonna be awesome too! Some friends were telling me I should do a KA swap too, unfortunately california sucks balls with smog and all that so I doubt I'll be doing one but who knows. Keep up the good work though!

Love this truck, I had one myself until I bought my new daily. Also the toyota surf front bumber looks killer on the front of these, just some more ideas.

[Isuzupickup]

I like your old Zu Japluv. A friend on an Isuzu forum fitted the Toyota bumper and I gotta say they do look good.

good start man, i love these pups. reminds me of my old truck click on the pics for larger.

18 boyd coddington wheels
drop spindles, custom coilivers, removed tortion bars, coilovers and 4link in the rear, notched frame.

Hey, would you care to elaborate on the coilover setup you ran? I'm interested in running the same thing. Like making mounts and where the donor coils came from?

[NorCalFocus]

Damn thats hard to believe those are 18's on that truck.

i used the hotrod style coilover shocks you can get from summit, this was about 9 years ago so i dont remember the specifics in regards to model numbers. it was direct bolt on, no fabrication necessary. i did notch the frame though, if i hadnt the frame would be sitting on the axle in those pictures.

18" billet aluminum yo

Bolt on?!?!

[tfest]

yes, but as i said, i cannot find them on summit and i ordered the parts before they had a website so i cannot find my old order info for reference.

I used to have a 98 Toyota Tacoma and a lot of ppl used qa1 coilovers off a 68-69 camaro for those trucks mabey you should look into it? But I say bags...

[tfest]

But I say bags...

i second this. i had a 1989 Hardbody that was bagged, the isuzu was my daily.

sorry for the shitty picture, it was taken before digital cameras were decent... lol
