Fitting 35’s with minimal trimming NOW ADDING LONG TRAVEL AND 934 CV’s

Trophy truck inspired. At least in my head. Very capable.

 

That's awesome. I still need to build the front and rear skids on mine. As well as get the front bumper built and chop the cross member off. Would love a closer look at what you did for the front skid!

 

Looks like an awesome 3D Scan imported into SolidWorks!? Man that’s awesome stuff

 

Did you do anything to beef up the frame horns where that bumper attaches to? Mine are bent to shit from winch pulls and just front driving around with the weight of the bumper there where Toyota only intended for a crash bar

 

Yes there is a new crossmember that ties the front frame rails together and then tubes that come up from the LCA crossmember to triangulate the entire front frame

 

Harry wasn't looking so I snuck into the shop and borrowed *his* new baja truck for the holidays...



Smashed a rutted out road with +12" potholes...no drama...all good. Steering rack and pump is sublime. Gonna have to get used to actually driving and not countering the bouncy house suspension that was on it before. Worth the wait, every penny and then some.

If anyone is on the fence about JD products and services...get off yer ass and get it done.

 

Really curious to see some videos of this kit working so go use and abuse the truck. Get pics and vids and report back

 

You'll need to rebuild it. I used 3/4" hardware when I rebuilt mine. I think my frame horn redo will be the next add to my build thread, thanks for the reminder..

 

The rate your rig is going you might wanna sawzall the frame and everything at the fire wall and start over lol there’s almost enough parts in here to do that anyways

 

Yeah that’s what I was referring to. Mine haven’t cracked yet like in your first pic but is just a matter of time. 1/4” plate I assume?

 

How about a whole new rolling chassis with TTB front end, 6.0 LS, 4L80, Atlas and Currie Rock Jock 60.

 

Chop it off from the cross member forward. Replace all the crumple zone with tube.

Then buy the @81Trekker kit to fix the underlying problem.

 

What kit?

 

X2

 

The LCA cam tab fix kit (already exists) and the bumper support kit I suspect is coming. Especially if two of you are already in for the group buy.

 

Still don’t know what you’re talking about.


look inside the red circle. Those are the OEM attachment points which are the problem. Maybe not so much for that truck bc that bumper looks to be aluminum and has no winch

 

The entire bumper bolts to the new front crossmember using 3/4” bolts. The OE attachment points do noting on this truck

 

But they’re still there and look to be in use unless that pic is old. Anyway, I think a lot of us would love to see more pics of that. I love how that came out! Wanna do that to my pelfry hybrid bumper
