@eon_blue Did you get those LBJ's done?

 

This reminds me.

@zero4 wanna mill something like this out?

 

Mill something on that or are you asking to make the whole thing? If the latter no. That would take me forever. That needs to be CNC'd. There's a reason why that part is made by casting then machined.

 

There is a thread somewhere of someone who milled this. It didn’t look exact but all the mount points were the same. Ans stronger then stock

 

Here it is

Like i said. Doesn’t have to be exact.

 

Making it like that without all reassembling the shape of the factory one I could do. But you need to send me all the dimensions including the taper for the ball joint. Basically a print. I'm not willing to spend the time to figure out all that for something I can't test fit on hand.

 

Its the weakest point on a 5lug suspension. So a stronger metal would be nice

 

I can send you a bracket and ball joint. If that helps

 

I want that gone.

If i get another truck it will probably be a full size. Though my next vehicle will probably be a suv.

Dont want another tacoma, unless maybe a DC LB 2nd gen.

 

What year and engine is it for again?

 

96 v6 ext cab

 

Oh good, I want it but I don’t want to change the spring mounts haha

 

Want something bigger like a 2500 if i get another truck.

 

Just run the shorter leafs. No performance difference

 

I don’t have the shorter springs

 

You still need to draw up the shape & size of it, I'm not willing to do that. The factory one looks offset for the ball joint where as the one that guy made doesn't look offset. Does that matter to you? Plus being what it is, unless you design it to be beefy, I'm not sure I would want go make a critical suspension part like that for someone. I ain't getting blamed if it were to break.

 

Because i like how they look. Actually enjoyed the 1500 i had rented. But need a 2500 for a cummins
