    Mine just went back on the jackstands last night. Pulled the mangled UCA mounting bolt out after a whole lot of banging and found that the sleeve that holds it in place is elongated at one end. Damn good thing I'm installing those TC gussets!

    mjp2 can you put page numbers on the first post of where your build actually is. I've already read the whole thing, but it would be easier than having to sift through 78 pages. Just a suggestion.

    Interesting idea. I'll get the list going as soon as I have time to sift through the thread myself. :thumbsup:

    I would say that this is more of a "repair" than a "build"

    "Plenty" is a reasonably accurate description.

    Nah, I work at a classy place. It's scotch when I'm in the office.

    True. It's horribly out of date at this point but goes into pretty good detail for what is there. I'll update that when I get around to updating my own website.

    ^ keeping this build thread consistent with the jackstands. Nice! :D

    Ordered some stuff yesterday.
    Superwinch EPi9.0 Winch, winch cradle mount that inserts into a 2" receiver, and a raw 2" receiver to weld onto the front of my trailer.

    I've been in the desert twice and got lucky both times. (giggity!) The first time I had no trailer and was able to limp out at idle and get welded back together in the parking lot. The second time I had a trailer and was able to strap the suspension together well enough to drive the truck onto said trailer. There's always a chance that my luck will run out so I'll have a winch on the trailer in case the Tacoma isn't on 4 wheels and needs to be dragged aboard.

    I went big on the winch figuring it can be always used for vehicle extractions if needed. That receiver mount is a sweet option.

    I already have the wiring on the rear of Tacoma for the winch. Just need to wire up the tow vehicle to power it on the trailer after UPS pays me a visit, do a little welding, and I'll be ready for some real breakage. :p
