The Land cruiser did it better since that plate can be unbolted

 

Was way easier with the Land Cruiser for sure

My only gripe was playing musical chairs with a jack and jackstands

 

it's awful - I got him outboard mounts -- way easier and look kinda cool

 

He fully strip it and painted it

 

Yeap like 4 months ago. Sold it for 3 bottles of wild turkey 101

 

seems legit

 

Hes actually a southern California guy. Didn’t go out of state

 

Gonna get an F150 fuel tank right?

That driveshaft is gonna kiss the stock tank

 

nooo - how? how will it kiss? its soooo far away; it didn't change the ride at all other than not clunking from not being attached...did I eff up?

 

Oh no I just meant in an extreme flex situation; I wrongly assumed what the vehicle would be used for!

 

ya ya - I hear ya. It's gotta little bit of a lift and has been ridden hard off road with the previous owner just trying to clean up some nasty work they "did" -- there were so many things they were proud of that I cringed at the whole time with that fake smile saying "oh, nice" while mentally saying "FUCK!"

 

her nose went from this


to this...



I didn't HATE the original - I could sit under the hoop...

 

I dig it

You guys plan to keep the rear links or going leaf spring?

 

Also the rear bumper was held on with a variety of bolts and shit ton of washers...

 

for now letting it ride; it's not mine so I don't have say -- just as much as he doesn't have say on my truck. lol. Don't get me wrong - this isn't "his vs mine" BS -- just us having different preferences and uses. We both like to tinker and this keeps him with his own toys.

 

Had the same bolt/washer combo going on when I pulled the radiator out of my Land Cruiser

I was like WTF

 

The POs original bumper looks like a Habsburg chin jesus

 

Heavy ass bumper too -- also made a great seat at the back...

 

OMG. I just about spit drink...

Someone is actually coming Monday to give us MONEY for both the front and rear.
