2002 tacoma race build

subbed. Awesome work so far, you really do have a gift as far as fabricating goes.

 

uppers look sweet dude... subbed fo sho

 

this things sick! nice job.

 

thanks guys. its coming along really slow as this whole time so far ive been building with a broken leg in a cast on crutches.... so im moving a bit slower than the normal well abled human being hahahaha. ill keep this updated as i can but we are looking at a month of almost no updates as i head in for surgery on thursday. should be back to fabbing on the truck within a month or so i hope.

thanks again for all the kind remarks! any of you in SD want to learn some time feel free to pm me. you come wanting to help, ill supply the brews.

 

Looking good man those UCA's look beefy! what wall thickness did you go with?

 

1.5 x.120 main tubes sleeved with 1.75 x .120 with 7/8 heims pivoting on 5/8 f911 hardware.

 

amazing build man. take it easy on that leg and get better bro.

 

thanks man. im taking it as easy as i can, just never been that person to say, "fuck it, my legs broken so that is a free pass to be lazy."

ive never been a guy to sit around idle so i spend it in my garage welding hahaha.

 

Nice I can't wait to see the truck on all 4 wheels.

 

nor can i man! should be on its wheels soon after i get back to working on her.

 

you do your thing devil dog

 

def sub'd to wat looks like something that is going to be amazing when finish. i give u mad probs bro good luck and keep it up!!! when do u think it will be for the most part finished.

 

you still have both your hands... i dont see what the hold up is haha

 

^^^ thats the way i look at it man... i welded some off road castors to my little shop stool so i can roll around in the dirt and do my thing while seated as much as possible. hahaha.

as far as a timeline for when im hoping to be done, i would like to have it together and out for testing by early december so i can tune shocks and get everything set for christmas weekend in the desert.

 

right on brotha.

i got my fingers crossed you get everything wrapped up so you can make it out to this...

this build makes me dream about what my truck will be one day

 

Nice build!! It's gonna be awesome when it's done.

Your build reminds me of this one,

 

Awww come on dave. Bring your truck on by and we will link the fucker. Your truck can be like mine in no time hahahaha

 

If i get stationed in that area, i will have to swing by and stare at your truck and see if my mind can wrap around the whole idea of it all lol

 

well got the upper rear link 100% completed. started the jig for my new lower arms, was nice to at least get that started. only reason i couldnt at least get one lower built and tacked together today was my pile of shit step bits couldnt drill out the tabs to 5/8. went and bought another step bit, its more dull than my old one. wtf is that about?! ill get pics posted once i get the lowers off, painted, and uppers and lowers back on.
