    Thanks, bro!

    UHMW will be sweet!!!!!!! So many benefits over steel or aluminum.

    You might as well make some boatsides while you've got the UHMW..... :cool:

    Crossmembers.

    One rear one. Then the stock middle one. Then I'm making one that'll bolt up to the old sway bar mounts. :cool:

    Plus beams running from the front and rear crossmembers to the center on on the outer edge.

    I think it'll be fine :D

    Yeah I've been looking into making some skids out of it I've read it flexes if not braced with steel. So maybe a frame of angle iron at the least to limit the flexing.

    Basically what I was gonna do. Think ill use 1" square. Then rotate it like how sliders are so the point edge is down. Then cut out Vs in the UHMW for it to sit in perfect. Not super deep ones but just to keep them from moving other then just bolts.

    Does most of this list apply to 01-04's? I just noticed most of the stuff you used is pre '01. I think I want to start to get a list together :spy:

    Pretty much! Only difference for your 02 is the tranny. I think you have the A340F. And I'm pretty sure only 03's and up have the fly-by-wire speedo sensor, so you should be good there... The reason you see most of the parts I used out of pre 01 trucks, is because I went with manual hubs (which only came on 95-00 tacos) and because most of the junkyards in my area rarely get tacomas, and when they do, the tacos are usually older.

    4x4 LT, eh? :cool:
