steering box and pitman arm in, so i can build the drag link...pitman arm bumps the plating i did for the shock hoop, so i have to bend it a little more

booger weldz · « **Reply #64 on:** Apr 06, 2008, 01:36:30 PM »

the front coilovers are adjusted pretty high and the rears are as low as they can go(they have slack at full droop even with tender springs) so all that can change drasticallly once i figure out what the heck im doing:D but thanks for the compliments for sure

booger weldz · « **Reply #65 on:** Apr 06, 2008, 01:38:32 PM »

i actually need 16'' coilovers for the front, or build taller mounts for the 14's and turn down the spring collar things...............

dabbling in the idea of a removable exo, just in case on those harder trails(fordyce, hammers, moon rocks...) i hate the look, but if i threw this thing down id be seriously foouked $ wise to get it fixed

The front and rear bars on mine are made to come off. They have been hit and used many times. I have taken them off and on many times and they still go back on very easy.

booger weldz · « **Reply #69 on:** Apr 06, 2008, 02:08:32 PM »

yeah, thats the idea, i have a bunch of big heims left over for mounting points, instead of flanges??? ill jsut stay on the 'safe' trails until i sort out how to protect it 'just in case'

booger weldz · « **Reply #70 on:** Apr 06, 2008, 06:02:35 PM »

steering shaft to ifs box...tacoma upper section grafted to early model ifs lower......

booger weldz · « **Reply #71 on:** Apr 06, 2008, 06:04:15 PM »

firewall plate and seal from FROR...taco upper Ujoint(dissasembled and removed the chunk that makes the sharp turn down to the old rack and pinion steering setup)

I would absolutely love to do a build like this sometime. Awesome job, its going to look incredible when its done

booger weldz · « **Reply #76 on:** Apr 18, 2008, 11:45:35 AM »

inner fender bars, what a PITA! over 40 little bends in these...gotta trim the fender to match. it actually matches the curve really well in the side view, but not at the angle this pic is at...

booger weldz · « **Reply #77 on:** Apr 18, 2008, 11:46:53 AM »

cant even really see it once i paint all the inner fender sheetmeatl and stuff black, but if i tip the truck over itll really protect stuff when tied into the shock hoop...at least i hope

booger weldz · « **Reply #78 on:** Apr 18, 2008, 11:48:38 AM »

hers the early model brake booster duffil hooked me up with...its got the bolt pattern i need for the adaptation to the oneton master cylinder unlike the newer model on my 2002 truck

How much lift are you getting with the coilovers 4 r 5?. Truck looks GOOD.

kiyul4130 · « **Reply #82 on:** Apr 18, 2008, 01:02:14 PM »

not much, since the frames something like 25 1/2" and the coilovers are punched through the fenders. my guess is like 3 1/2" of lift. its funny,this is probably the best build on the board i think and its only 3 pages long haha.

yeah, im not sure? i could find a stock taco and measure frame height and subtract my tire size difference. anyone know the stock taco frame height at the Tranny crossmember thing?

i hope so, ive never used coilovers before so ill have a bit of tuning(i dont have a clue, but poly performance has been super helpful) to do to get it to ride around properly is suppose?
