    The beauty of it is hat when you get in a bind you'll know it very quickly. So you can stop before shit really starts to bind up.

    Yes, we do have chains, but these chain case's in the first gen Taco's and the 2nd gen's and FJ Cruisers are much stronger than the first cgain case's by Toyota.

    Wow. That pic really shows how far forward you shoved the tires. It looks so awesome. Do you have a measurement of how much farther forward they are? I know most kits move them about 2".

    I'm thinking about 4" forward but i still haven't checked. Seeing how i moved the rear from stock i dont know if i will be able to get a good measurement.

    Oh ok. It looks like its pretty far forward. If you have a stock truck to measure off of, then you could pull a tape to a body mount or a hole in the frame.

    One thing i will say you dont need to change the MC with the Wilwood 6 piston calipers. I fixed the brakes and this thing stops on a dime :cool: the LBPV is turned fully up and i'm still locking up the rears on a hard stop. It should be good once i put on the shell.

    I lost track thousands of dollars ago.
    I was so close to driving the truck home yesterday but i have a pretty bad driveline vibration in the rear and i didnt like it at high way speeds. So the drive line is going back tomorrow to see the issue with it. Were thinking its the 1350 CV ball just a little off center causing a wobble. Other then that the truck is 99% drivable. I just have to do little things to make it perfect. With just my eyeball anignment and it tracks nicly down the road . I need to build a front bumper so it dont look wrecked in the front but its getting there.

    I was thinking the same thing this morning. Hopefully, it's a quick fix.

    You need a muffler to make it 'legal' too ;)
