Dez Toy Fab LT Kit

I don't see this happening - none of his customers have had such a complaint.

 

Got it.

 

Its all good brother, this forum can get a lot of chatter. Im sure you arnt the first to have this impression as he is an "in-demand" guy. With that being said, just kick the dude another PM asking again if he might be available to get that rear for you.

I don't know DTF at all, but from my brief communication, he seems like a chill understanding guy. Remember though, this exact business of off-road long travel stuff is a very niche market and especially during race season the "skilled guys" tend to get over worked pretty fast. We all are customers here, but remember while we have a few G's to throw at him, he probably has a few race teams with a considerable budget that might have been on the books for stuff for a while.

Unfortunately he is a one man show, so you might have to wait a little bit.

 

No worries man, I was the same way. Sometimes its hard to believe these solid long travel creations only come from one guy. Collaboration is key for everyone man good or bad, that's why we are here. Hope it works out!

 

Was just gonna keep scrolling but your post left a bad taste in my mouth! I personally know Anthony and its through being a customer 1st and as I kept throwing money at my trucks and visiting the shop, going on runs with have become friends. He is a stand up guy and awesome at what he does! If u have a problem with not getting a response on the forum u should email him or call the business (he prefers emails I believe) like most customers would do. Like said above he is mostly a one man shop. I know u've apologized for jumping the gun but fuck man think about how many pm's, emails he gets asking for this n that. I could only wonder how many times he throws out quotes or info to people that never reply after gettin said quote. Espicially someone who just got on the forum and only 40 or so posts in... Not saying a new member or anything doesn't deserve an answer but shit man talking shit on his thread, not cool. Yes it is part of running a business but forums are not the fast or best way to always get replies. I think in post #1 he says email me. And @DTFtacoma I'd prefer u don't answer any more emails or pm's or even phone calls from ur wife etc until my pos is done lol. The guy is in demand right now! He has upped the LT game and everyone wants a piece! Many peeps want it till they realize the price tag involved with it. Yes he needs a secretary but to come on here and blast him over that, silliness! U should delete those post if feel u jumped gun or spoke (typed) n the heat of the moment.

I had Anthony do the rear end LT on my last truck and then a bunch of other work on it after. From that time on he has had my business no questions. Yes he may take a bit longer than some shops but like stated he is one guy and does it all by himself. He is usually squirting metal, designing parts and working not hanging on the internet looking at forums. In fact on my current build he did some work I thought was titties and as he moved along he decided it would be more functional and look better etc a different way, so he ripped out the work and redid it all on his own accord. That's the type of guy he is! His work speaks for itself!

Anyone considering gettin his kit, bumper, parts or work done by hm do not hesitate you wil not regret it!!! He is a metal master building functional pieces of art. I don't even want to drive my truck I just want to look at it and fap... Ok I do wan to drive it but u get the idea.

Just my 2¢ carry on

 

Was one of these yours - the black one??

 

Yup the black dbl cab.

 

I did wind up going with DTF to get rear setup thus far excellent response time & super helpful before and after $ was exchanged have no complaints.... will post pictures in a month or so wen installed

 

FYI price was comparable to DMZ

 

Man that thing is coming out nice! What springs are you using in the rear? The setup looks exactly like what I'm looking for, but it sounded like it would take awhile to put a production kit together. Gonna be awesome!

 

Thanks! Running a 50t pack from the old parted taco. Probably swapping out to a deaver custom or H70/E30 at some point.

 

Lets get this DTF LT thread back on track.

DTF first gen race kit with J-arm option





One of the many projects keeping me up at night lol

 

Damn man now that is some solid modeling! What numbers is this looking to get for a first gen?

 

​

 

Thank you! A couple years ago I took night classes after work and became a solidworks certified associate, glad the college is across the street lol

First gen kit numbers looking like 15" bumped and strapped with 8" coilovers and the bolt on upper. (100% bolt-on)

The J-arm on the other hand should be 17.5" bumped and strapped with 10" coil overs. I'm shooting for a 3.0 bypass with proper tube layout

 

​

 

Is there any chance of a group buy on the 2nd gen lt kit?

 

But I got 2.5 bypasses for front

Good thing I bought used for a great deal, I shall run them for a bit and then upgrade

I fucking can't wait!!!

 

*** BIG UPDATE ***

After hours of rework on solidworks, I streamlined the current LT kit in order to reduce assembly time, reduce un-sprung weight, and optimize for full heimed steering.














Even more TIG welding



The bottom line is you get a new kit for the same price and all of the pieces are interchangeable with the existing kit if any of my customers need replacement parts.
