Thanks for the details - that helps a lot. Please keep us posted on what you learn; in turn I'll be patient - I'd rather wait on the size I need as opposed to the size I have to settle for.
Thanks for cleaning up the original thread.
How close to production would these potential new sizes be offered? I'll be purchasing new tires this spring and I'm interested in these 35" x 16" offerings.
I think your contributions are great. A simple image that captures the area's beauty and the spirit of adventure and overlanding. Inspiring. You're very talented - keep it up.
When does the calendar come out?
My question was too vague I think. So what does the kit base plate attach to? I assume basic assembly starts with the left fender apron battery support base plate, batteries, and top plate in that order, right? Then utilize existing radiatior support upper top tie bar, battery bracket, and...
Jim - please - don't encourage them. This build has been hard enough as it is on my piggy bank. Selling my plasma now is just wiping me out by the end of the day.
Oh, you saw that Lexus transplant? Was that sweet or what? How about the 4BT in the FJ60? The owner was in the shop last...
Thanks! It wasn't there the other day... now I know when to expect it in.
Nice - that looks better than the picture in the posts for my application - doesn't look like it will interfere with the radius arm mounts on the frame either.
My bust - I should have explained the TG bracket picture in more detail when I posted it. I was just excited at the prospect of no longer having "Magic Fingers" massages or blood in my urine anymore.
The middle picture is the FROR support which is transmitting beau coup vibration. The bottom picture is the Trail Gear support which is en route and what we will replace the FROR unit with. TG developed that support in the last few months and it's not yet listed among their products. That...
Nice truck - you did some serious clearancing to fit those treads but it looks good from that picture! But nothing says big gay truck like pink struts, too, like in your picture, right? Don't ask - don't tell; I got you bro on the down-low... ;) NTTAWWT
Patience - waiting on the leaf pack...
No worries! I got you - we're on the same page.
I never noticed any of the women while my WIFE and I were in Montreal; whatever do you mean? :rolleyes:
The joint is close to the frame and it is huge - 3" Ballistic Fab joint - we probably should have gone smaller but they weren't available...
No, I think it's the Poutine. I felt that way after eating it when I was recently in Montreal; couldn't sleep, just staring at stuff...
It's just radius arms... I got the idea from staring at a lot of 80-series Land Cruisers. Is there any debate about what a good truck it is on the trail...
If the Campbell River is in Canada then you need to hook up with this crowd... http://www.ct4wd.com/forum/index.php
Solid group of wheelers with a wealth of experience and skill. I'm planning a trip with them this summer on the Whipsaw Trail.
Enjoy your build and good luck.
You know, for a rust pickin' squid you got more field time than most grunts! Stay safe and keep your head on a swivel... I do not want to see you at Bethesda; Armado, yes - Bethesda, no. Remember that.
Your truck with its drivetrain and this suspension would be awesome - runs like a scalded...
From you this is high praise indeed -- thanks! I've admired your fab skills and creativity for years. I'll get the details this weekend and drop you a PM.
You and me both want to see what flex I get. Right now we're in a hold pattern for my new ALCAN leaf packs until they arrive in January...
