2002 tacoma race build

I would suggest making the back half a little skinnier then the frame, with your rear axle not being that wide, you might have a problem with the coils rubbing the frame on articulation

 

thanks for the insight! ill definitely ad that to the list of shit to be mindful about. also ill get back to you on those hiems, once i get the bed done, ill be moving back up front where i need the heims and ill ba able to make a better decision once im up there. we will see how it all goes.

 

well the rear frame horn boxes are done. should be working on tying the bed and cab together as well. long weekend so we shall see.

 

today is a good day... this is how i left the truck last night before i came in for the day.. you know what this means right?! i can now re-do the angles on the uni cups for my uppers today, and my suspension is complete other than wrapping cups and the little things. WOO HOO!!!! i may actually get out this season!

 

whenever this POS image uploader starts working ill be happy to post some up.....

 

damn.... imposible to upload pictures.... sorry for no eye candy to anyone who cared hahah.

if you want you can email me pictures and ill put them up. i want to see now!

 

thanks 95 taco... im on the sd bs thread... just never really care to say anything. more of a be seen not heard kinda person now a days i guess. thanks for the heads up though.

and eric..... i will let you know whats up... im trying on my computer and i dont know if it is my comp or the fact that macs can be retarded.... but one way or another ill solve this damn uploading issue.



edit: FUCK SAFARI! i downloaded firefox and the uploader works fine.... fucking mac.....

 

more than likely im not getting much done on her this weekend. dog scratched the shit out of my eyeball and now im in a patch until it heals.. figure ill wise up and not be a dumb ass and go cut off a finger or some crazy shit because i seem to be a hazard to myself... hahaha

 

thats my dd diesel. i work as a fabricator for a machine subcontractor to the government. just so happens we also happen to build some truck equip on the side as well. its an awesome job! lemme tell ya!

 

well best update to date in my opinion... i decided to say fuck it to the stock spindles and im slamming the beast spindles from the good ol pickup on her. i have already started new j arm uppers and moved pivots.... right now we are looking at camber at -2 at ride, -10 at bump and 0 at full droop.... i wanna see if i can bring that droop number into the negative a bit but other than that im happy... funny that they shot the track width out even further...

 

well... here it goes... vertical upper on old 4x spindles... ive started the tacking and cycling and its been fun.... here is what ive got so far....

 

Looking good man cant wait to see it finished

 

Nor can I! She will be getting road driven long before being done sadly. :-(

 

Now the fun has begun! Cycling 19" metal to metal with 10 degrees of change the last 4 being in final 3 or so inches to bump.
