Z()LTAN · 05-02-08, 03:55 AM

yeah i hope it will tap.

hey all, here is my 5th stud conversion...

Pritty basic but should give me some more strength.

If i break these ill buy a pair of 6shooters.

Z()LTAN · 05-08-08, 03:49 AM

Hey all,

Im at Tafe for the next few weeks so i dont have access to the workshop to do anything. I do have a sort of garage come workshop set up at home to continue though.

Heres my start to the front hub rebuild.

Spindles are ok, only minor wear on the seal area so i cleaned them up for reuse.
Hubs are painted and prepped.
Highsteer is prepped for install (buffed off the stoopid red paint on the mating surface...)
Hubs are almost together.

Ive got to buy some new thrust bushes for the inside of the spindle and possibly some new lower kingpins as the last people to work on this truck were realy rough and gouged into everything (as you can see from the above swivel housing pix)

Cheers fellas

You really are a big spender

Z()LTAN · 05-15-08, 04:31 AM

PFFFT

Super cheap my ass....

This is an industrial welder made by lincolin.

It dont get a great deal better for the $$$

Z()LTAN · 05-15-08, 04:31 AM

Anyway....

GOT BLING?

Turned out so awesome!

Z()LTAN · 05-24-08, 04:15 AM

Update:

Had a prick of a day...Ive got a killer cold, im dodging rain all day and getting the wrong parts from Toyota... that i cant return as they have a non return policy... PRICKS...

Anyhoo i managed to fit my knuckles back onto the housing with 5* of Castor, welded on my u bolt receivers (not yet finished) i put together the passenger side swivel housing and high steer, made a spacer ring out of the old backing plate so as to do away with the backing plates all together. I put the center in an did a few other things... I wet and cold... but happy as i have made some more progress...

Z()LTAN · 05-29-08, 03:14 AM

Sneeky update:

Im supposed to be at Tafe but i have finished the block already...

Tafe thinks im at work, work thinks im at tafe! Perfect!

Got the other side finished, got the highsteer in. Got a load more stuff from toyota to finish it.

Tomorrows agenda:
Fit Longies and axles, fit hubs and put wheels on for a wank factor shot.
Get some bundy tube (break line and fuel line) from ABS in ozzie park here, run the new break lines and fuel lines.

Hehe wish me luck!

Oh and some update pix

roscoFJ73 · 05-29-08, 08:39 PM

Its coming along

but those fishplates need to be bigger. I can see ongoing problems with ubolts coming loose.
Another way would be to have some custom u bolts go around the axle and held there with some guides

Z()LTAN · 05-29-08, 09:30 PM

your right and ive been thinking the same.

If i had my time again i would have made the spring perch the lower ubolt holders..

anyhow i need custom ubolts neway as the thread dont go down far enough.

Z()LTAN · 05-30-08, 08:52 AM

Well what do you know... She does hold her own weight!

For the first time in 2 years, she can hold herself up!

Check out that Approach angle

And the pix: Maby a sticker that says caution over width is needed?

lulo · 05-30-08, 09:07 AM

WOW!!! excellent job mate!
