The Frankenstein Build! LT/Expo/Trail rig..and BS

That why I said almost Yeah it wouldn't ever be 100% but if the other 3 lost most of their traction you could possibly see as much as 90% of that torque on 1 with traction.

From what I understand 1st gens and 2nd gens have the same rear ends, so it is odd that 2nd gens have problems. It is just the TRD offroads with the factory locker. The housing is weaker and will flex slightly under force causing the R&P to mis-align enough to break teeth... One theory has to due with the 2nd gens having more power, but if that is the case, then all the S/C 1st gen TRD's should be just as plagued too.

 

Well that other part is a given. If only one wheel has traction and the vehicle can easily move forward then no issues. haha

 

I seriously doubt solid mounts will put my axles more at risk..

Got gas today! Welding shall continue..sadly..no lights though..

 

Odds are no. It will only really come in to play if you are heavy on the throttle.

 

Exactly. Which is no different then any other problem associated with the skinny pedal

 

Getting closer..

Center bolt in



Helped a TON. lights a rock solid now.

Light hoop almost done. Got tire and came home. If I don't work tomorrow ill finish it for sure






The more I get this done the more I love the folding lights. Works awesome. Going to be very handy.

 

Thats just how I was thinking with the hoop, looks awesome.

 

Thanks man. It's coming together great. Hopefully my LED bars show up tomorrow

 

how do the lights stay down?
Looks awesome by the way!

 

The hinge is just stiff. And the weight if them for now. However I have a roof rack tie down thing ill use when it's all done.

But again ill have them up most the time. Only time they will be down is when I know ill be going on the high way. So they should be fine I'd think. But I'll have the tie downs anyways just in case.

Thanks man!

 

Just now saw this but congrats on getting build of the month of TTORA! Always have liked your build. I dunno why I haven't subbed until now.

 

Thanks man!!

 

Lights came!!

Thanks a ton Blitzpro!! Lights are huge!! Going to be sick.

 

Looking good buddy!

But why did you run the angle iron upside down?? Its just going to collect snow and water now..

 

I have been waiting for someone to ask that.

I basically made this rack exactly upside down from my last on. Last time I had it so the point was facing up. Amd the outer rails had the flat side down. I reversed it for the simple reason of more surface for the grating to sit on, making it mor safe.

Wage and snow are going to be avoid by a few small holes drilled in the rails

 

ok, cool. You could have also run the angle iron on its side so you have a flat surface for the expanded metal to sit on

 

Yea I thought of that. But the symmetry would be off that's a sad excuse but my OCD I guess..

My iPad has been a little funky lately. Might need an update

 

moar pics!

 

x2!

 

I know!

Ill have a video here for ya too haha I just forgot my iPad when I ran over there for an hour..headed back now..with iPad..
