12TRDTacoma's Supercharged M/T "Accidental" build

I believe hey may have tied into those and the coil bucket portion of them as well. Sounds like a good size for tubing on something of this nature.

The air bumps too so I really have about 3 areas of the frame to support flex, plus this now.

 

Yea, they should connect to the top of the secondary tube support, since thats connected to the coil buckets and the frame. Hmmmm I'm really interested to see what he did lol

 

Me too. The anticipation is building right now.

 

Hey what size tubing are your secondary hoops? 1.25"?

 

That's a great question. I don't know. TC may have the specs on their site.

 

Eyeball it

 

I don'thave the truck with me otherwise I would. Lol.

 

ROFL, love this. You're literally sitting at or using a device that can search for your answer faster than Rob can type it back.

 

Yea but I'm lazy, and I've looked, just says 'tubing' not the size, I'm just gunna make sum 400$ is fuckin retarded

 

1.25".

 

Meh, $350 for camburg ones....they can charge what they want because their average consumer doesnt have access to a good tube bender or the know how to use it correctly, and then weld up the other pieces. I'm cool with paying for a product someone else with more experience made

 

As am I Jeff @VolcomTacoma. I looked myself and didn't find a thing. How did you find out what the tube size was after all?

 

I found their 95-04 ones at 1.25", Im assuming they used the same for 2nd gens. If not, obviously bigger, so possibly 1.5". Ill check my camburg ones with a micrometer when i get home

 

@ckeene9 @Basikbiker @VolcomTacoma

 

It's going to be 1.25" then.

 

Cool, man stuff gets busy in the wheel well, imagine if your upper arm bolt was double sheared too, crossbar looks good

 

It's actually designed to swing up and out of the way from the other side to make removal of it easier if I ever need to get it out of the way. Worked out real nice.

I am actually considering doing the UCA bolt double sheared here in the very near future.

 

I think i like where that one bolts up to, to help prevent the coil bucket from bending in, but i think ill do another one punched through the wheel well, attached to the secondary shock mounts and run along the fire wall. And just have a bar on either side of the SC connecting the two crossovers. Maximum strength. Id rather over engineer the shit out of this and have to much extra crap and make it difficult to work on anything, than go with one and have it fail when i out jump Rob

 

The bushing mounts will flex a littttttlleee bit, good for anti vibration tho

 

It won't work with our supercharger setup, that's why Anthony designed it to have one otherwise he woulf had put two of them on it, but there is legitinately no space back there without the bar contacting vital plugs, sensors and vacuum fittings. Check out @JordanSmith127 's build. He only has one bar going across his setup as well. It's only there to prevent unwanted flex. The bar is 1 3/4 thick. It'll be fine.
