he is alive!

 

Always here in spirit

 

That's one nice rig. What suspension are you running.

 

Getting the old bushings out is fun eh? I went and ended up sealing the control arms up to. Sleeved the holes with some tubes in case I wanted to mount skids. Mind you I did weld some thin plate for some protection.

Can also gusset around the lower mounts to prevent failure

this was before sleeving the holes. You get the idea.

 

god damned 4Runners,
@CaygeonRunner why do you have to look better than us Taco guys...

god i'd love a rig like that

 

looks like you could use @Thyces newly rebuilt sandblaster there....

 

Oh no oh fuck he has 4 more Hiluxs...

they will die but please send them all out in glory

Bushings aren't bad to be honest. Have done it enough times to develop a system. Map torch to center ring, slides out, then sawzall the outer ring, then cold chisel with a mallet pops the whole bitch out. POR metal prep, self etching primer and your choice of clearance spray from homedepot

 

Also while I had the whole set up out I started the prep work on the Chevy 63's

 

DEAR GOD

 

I do have six pairs total lowerz... could start another set fully gusseted.... I will most likely grab the marlin crawler lca reinforcements plates to supplement

 

You talking about the LCA frame braces? They may interfere with the LCA bushing hoop gussets depending on alignment cam bolt setting:



Nothing a grinder can't fix, but be prepared.

 

So it's a competition? I did this in Anson North:

 

Eibach pro truck with spacers but waiting on kings, should be here end of May

 

Nice... I'm still working with the 5100's. (The working man's shocks) hahaha
Actually I'm looking to upgrade also... But I'm cheep so we'll see

 

Found WDs alt account.

 

Collecting parts I see. Continue on. Look forward to hearing about the brake booster upgrade.

 

Anything is possible with a sawzall and a welder right?

 

I can’t wait to see what he does lol

 

Does anyone here actually have the 4WP bumper? Obviously they're gonna catch you with the lower price and most of all super easy to obtain in Canada... There isn't really anyone locally who beats it, or comes close.

I'm pretty certain this is the season I need to go winch/bumper and while it's not my first choice, it is warming up to me and I'd be in for a really good price.

I've already seen the TW thread here about it, just wondering if anyone here has it!


Thinking I go across and pick up one of them Harbor Frieght Apex 12k's for the winch, or just give 4WP the money for a smitty gen3 10 or 12k, might be better for any warranty issues.
