ya should be soon im just waiting on cash for more parts.... I am still a little undecided on whats next on the tubing so I took a break for some 

[THK Matt]

beer always helps the brain think.

i think go like Mayberry did on his 2nd gen.
make a core support for the rad and call it good for tube work up front.

[TIMS89CRAWLER]

ya I will figure it out tonight and work on it all day tomorrow as well since I took the day off to work on the truck!

[THK Matt]

[TIMS89CRAWLER]

[TIMS89CRAWLER]

Nice!!!.It's looking bad ass Tim!!!

[TIMS89CRAWLER]

a few more of the exo coming together... I have a little tweaking to do on this yet to get it just how I want it..... but here is what I have so far...







I am gonna keep working on the cage tonight after work till I run out of tubing....then I will just work on the wiring some more since I still have a whole truck wiring harness to get built....

[BigBs84]

Hey not trying to be a richard but I think the A-pillers are going to be a visablility issue But I know your not done so I will keep watching

[TIMS89CRAWLER]

ya you may be right I dont think it will bother me much on the trail as I spend more time watching the tires than I do out the window anyway and she is a trailer queen anyway.... we will see I guess (or not see  )

[BigBs84]

Yea 3rd gens dont have much for an A-piller anyway so it can be interesting  keep up with the good work man that is a big job you took on and it is looking good so far.

ya I got in the truck and I dont think the tubes are going to bother me much... ya its a lot of hard work to get all these tubes to fit together right and lots of test fitting and more grinding and notching and..... well u know but I think it will all be worth it in the end!! thanks for the good words bro much appreciated!

[THK Matt]

any more work done?

[4xphill]

looking good make sure when you are bending the HREW tube witch I noticed you are that when you bend it make sure the seem is on the inside after a few good hit's it will split the tube little fab secret I learned working in a fab shop. keep up the good work

thats good to know man! I will keep that in mind when building the rest of the cage! thanks for the pointers bro

any more work done?

not really I am re-working some of the things I have already done cause the roof "halo' got a little out of whack.... I am picking up some more tubing after work and will get the exo finished up

[TIMS89CRAWLER]

OK got some more things figured out as far as parts I still need to purchase.... I needed a bigger radiator than my 22r unit I was running with the 20R to cool the 2rz... I know I can prolly get by running a stock toyota v6 radiator however I have been wanting a nice aluminum radiator for a while now so I did some research and found this beast and it will fit perfect in my front tube work


SUMMIT # SUM-380424
$175.95
and I have heard lots of bad things regarding running hydro assist with the stock 2rz power-steering pump so I have heard this is a much needed for my application

PSC # PK-1220xk
$395.00

and to go with the new pump and hydro assist setup I figured this bad boy from summit would aid in cooling of the P/S fluid and its cheap!!

SUMMIT # SUM-G4960A
$37.95

sweet get to it dont forget run the right anti-freeze news to me but i guess the green stuff can eat away aluminum soo be careful

[TIMS89CRAWLER]

sweet get to it dont forget run the right anti-freeze news to me but i guess the green stuff can eat away aluminum soo be careful

ya I have heard things along those lines myself so I will prolly just ask summit what they recommend when I order the radiator and go with what they say is best for the aluminum
