Alabama Cam's 98 Tacoma

The tool box? Yes. I used 4 5/16 x 1 in bolts with large fender washers on the top and bottom.

 

well…. Front end stuff has been ordered.

 

was really hoping to have this by now, I placed my order 20 days ago and haven't received a tracking number yet...

 

Well…. Hello there!

 

Got a decent start on the teardown this afternoon. Noticed a few things that I’m going to have to decide on / figure out.

• the axles that come with the solo kit are for ADD front hubs. My truck is a manual hub truck. I **THINK** I can just swap the outer joints from my truck to the new axles…. Maybe. I’ll call solo Monday and see what he says.

• I need to decide if I’m going to do aftermarket cam tabs, to be honest, I really don’t want to mess with it….. but man, now’s the time to do it.

• I guess I need to order fenders this week as well.

 

One dude to another... do the cam tab and stop cam kit from KP-Offroad. It's not a fun job but it's pretty important. Also skip Fiberwerx if you're going for fenders and get the ones from Advanced Fiberglass Concepts instead. My Fiberwerx took up too much of my patience and effort to make fit right.

 

I thought about it….. I ordered a cam tab kit

ordering ADV glass tonight.

 

I guess a little progress is better than no progress. Both sides are torn down. I got the solo upper arm double shear kit welded in on the driver side this afternoon.

I may be able to get the passenger side mocked up and tacked in tonight.

I went with the marlin crawler LCA frame brace kit, brown Santa dropped them off today. Fingers crossed that’s tomorrow’s project.
