    Nothing about the truck is reasonable! Lol and nothing beats the sound of a 2jz making boost

    I love glamis as much as the rocks so more power never hurts... and I like having boosted power as it’s easier on the drivetrain.

    Did he relocate the pockets or build new arms?

    No I’m saying he sucked up the front cross member and built a bumper that his stock skin fits over. That way he can pop it off for wheeling. Pretty nifty.

    That’s really cool, I love the idea of keeping it sleeper while street driving... I personally don’t care for the full blown overlander rig look on a truck that’s daily driven

    That was his original goal. Have a truck he can wheel but still look professional ish since he’s a business man. I think that’s since went out the window once he added glass fenders haha

    Any thought to clocking the cup a few degrees so that the upper ball joint is level at ride height? (similar to most other Uniball uppers?)

    The cups were clocked to give full range of the uniball, the limiting factor on drop out will be the shock length and same for bump.

    No, heims and urethane bushings get really noisy. For this project I’m using OEM bushings.

    I was playing around with the truck this morning and was wondering what people are doing to beef up the steering? I’ve seen the tundra rack conversions, is there anything else people are doing?

    It looks like I could eliminate the rack And replace with a steering box/center link on swingers and add a ram assist but I’m not sure I want to get that involved. I would love to put some real tie rods on the truck but know they will just eat the OEM rack. Any thoughts from guys that have gone down this road? And I understand leaving the tie rods stock and carrying a spare as they are cheap and easy to replace.

    What you are describing, is that similar to the 1st and 2nd gen IFS trucks and 4runners. Steering box, pitman arm, etc.... just not ram assist? Like in this pic?

    Similar except the center link is hung from swingers (similar to shackles) rather than using an idler arm. I have run these setups on past long travel 2wd builds with excellent results.

    Interesting, got a pic? Is it hung using a shackle design to allow for max vertical travel?
