What's a small pulley? I wouldn't do any accessory underdrive stuff if that's what it is. We spend too much time at idle, keep it spinning fast.
Why you need a new gas tank? Just worried it isn't big enough?

The small idler pulley is needed to fit the air filter directly onto the throttle body. I don't need a new tank - mine is just modified by droping the stock Toyota pump into it. There is a 5" hole cut out of the top...

Did I see something on FB about replacing the rear axle and 4 link? Was that just old pics of the high 9 swap?

I have been perfectly happy with the electronic pedal on Pigpen. Cutting and welding the arm will probably take some trial and error though. I would just get a brand new one from the dealership. The one I got from Doggets was only like $10 cheaper than a new one.
On the 8th day god created the Super Swamper TSL and said "go forth and kick ass"
I guess the only problem I remember was when your battery or alternator took a crap and you couldn't do anything but idle...

for the New buggy Patrol build, should I go with a 4.3 Atlas or a 3.8? The tranny is a 4L60E, 39's and 5.13's in the axles

I'd go 3.8. Do they make something higher than that? I think you'll be shifting to high range a lot with an auto and 5.13s
...
they make a 3.0 also - man, I need to re-subscribe to these threads or something, I'm not getting the emails...

Random idea, can you have the idle speed dropped to 600 rpm or so?
