    Awesome thank you. I actually found a place cheaper than camelback somehow. C-clip reusable?

    Think so..i didn't buy a C clip. I took new bearings and the seals to my toyota dealership and had them do the work. Knowing what i know now id just do it myself though.

    Using the grappler bearing remover tool right? I have a machine shop I will be using that did my rear wheel bearings. Hopefully will be cheaper than toyota. Basically pulling the UBJ's, welding the gussets on, painting it, and then getting the bearings installed.

    Yea its Total chaos' Fox Bump stop kit and their rear shock relocation kit. Plus some Cam Tab gussets.

    Just went out and held them up on Igor..actually looks like everything will fit without wheel spacers with the current tire size..but will have to flex it out to really see.

    And the TC shock mounts are nice. Hard to judge how a shock will fit in there without having one on hand. But it also looks like i can slide the mounts further up the frame to get the shocks the same angle as stock...if the tires will allow. It would also take some tweaking because the bed will block the nut. So i think if i tapped the one side with threads and stepped up to a bigger bolt and custom Heims in the shocks. Be good to go.

    But that is all assuming the tires don't rub the living shit out of everything at flex. Up and down, everything looks good.

    If not what i want, i'll just pass them on to someone else.

    You and the rest of the world haha

    The one thing everyone wants to see about this..and there is nothing..

    I did find this:

    upload_2017-4-6_18-34-37.jpg
    upload_2017-4-6_18-34-47.jpg

    Stock wheels with 265s and 1.25'' spacers.

    Considering my wheels poke out not quite that much..but skinnier tire however..taller...it'll be close.

    Im as anxious as you :D

    I like the idea of this kit a lot..so i want it to work..

    I have a custom color matched homersatoshi and some black corners. New head lights. Haven't done retro yet. Maybe this summer.

    Bumper. No plans. Pelfrey has my interest now. But no rush.
