Alabama thread!

Is any one showing up at 9:00, if not I'll be there at 10 too

 

Let’s go ride at Stony Lonesome tomorrow morning. A few of us are going.

 

We’ll be there around 9:30 actually.

 

Nic has frame issues that need to be addressed before he wheels his truck.

 

Ah ok

 

See you at 9:30 then

 

Dang I was hoping you were going to send me some links of builds to prove me wrong haha I’ve been eying SAS pretty hard since I was looking at 40’s but I may pick up another vehicle for that if I go the nuclear route. Trying to keep in mind the kids might want to ride with when they get older. The FJ would be good for camping stuff and the taco would be good for mild wheeling trips.

 

if you go SAS sell me your JD stuf LOL

 

It’s tempting haha it may end up happening, who knows. I’m ready to enjoy it a bit before any more elective surgery haha

 

Am I the only person that noticed the rear wheel disc brakes lol?

 

No he’s also got coil springs in rear as well

 

I'd be curious as to how much that guy spent so far. Definitely a set up rig though!

 

Lol, they are all expensive and time consuming. The Camburg LT doesnt come with extended axles or coil overs so that would be another $2000 or more, they price out about the same. You can invest as much as you want to or do it on a buget. I got over $4000 in my front axle but I went the strong as possible route. I would like to have a nice riding LT Tacoma too, may be my next project. If you decide to SAS I can send you a lot of links

 

I’ve been looking at those. Are you going to have it on before tomorrow?

 

Fixed it

Preventative measures are over rated

 

Putting it on right now

 

This is what his frame looks like








800 × 6001,280 × 960

 

Looks like mostly surface rust, wire brush and some paint will fix that. I'd check that spot on the side in the second picture.

 

thats not actually his frame it was just an example pic. Its not surface rust. On the backside theres massive rust holes in it. Hes bought a patch kit we are going to weld in.
