    Not much space past that for mounting a leg with the bolt on plates. I've run 3 legs before on previous tacomas that were heavily abused and didn't have any real problems.

    That moment you take a third gen taco for a spin and come back to the other sales people saying "you kept it on the road right?" "Yes..." Only to look down at the dirt covered tires :laughing:

    yeah I actually checked it out and it ran alright but 315k is too many miles.

    And if I want to gamble I can get one for $550 with 180k~ from a junkyard

    OK. I am sure they will be strong enough but I was just curious. My Slee Sliders have 4 legs and utilize a sub frame design like you created there. I do like how yours are nicely tucked. I am really digging your color matched steel rims.

    Are you going to add some filler plates to those those gaps? Gussets never hurt either.

    Sweet, excited to see what you come up with. I have a set of bolt on Shrockworks that were bolted on, but the mounting points were bending so I cut them off and welded them on.

    So the motor has 117,000 and I have to assume the maintence stuff wasn't done. So to make sure I get it all. Let me know if I forget something. New plugs, oil filter, timing belt, water pump, thermostat. Wires look good. Anything else?

    good call, maybe the pan gasket too. Gotta remove the front diff to do it later.
