    4 run, 2 don't
    What can't afford an actual Land Cruiser instead of just the axle?

    I would've just bought a Land Cruiser

    Would've been safer too and had plenty more flex with the factory coils and radius arms

    At minimum, it's road worthy and can be daily with 37s and 40s, not 35.

    I'm just curious to see the dedicated trail rig he just got done building. I'm kinda jealous. Wish I had a yota.

    You won't see it. It's an online claim.

    That one has potential if the new owner put some money into it. Sell that POS mini and run SD front and sterling rear. Link the front and add a 4-speed atlas. But someone will probably run it as is with mini, wheel spacers, and 37s.

    The talent to build that alleged vehicle yet unable to fabricate out of his Land Cruiser leaf spring axle minor issue.

    This has me wishing I had a the same axle .

    Leaf springs on the front just feel so wrong!

    It would look Good under the 85 Celica 4x4 Project.
