Progress being made on SR5

egil1963 · 05-25-08, 10:54 AM

Just figured I'd drop in and show some photos of the progress being made on the truck so far, I can't post many photos but the ones I can I will. we took it out for a test drive around the block just to see if everything was working properly, and low and behold it does.

Looking good John. How much clearance do you have between the axle and oil pan?

Also did you use the bumpstops from the 60?

Glad to hear that it is driveable.

Is that a spring UNDER configuration you guyz did?
I thought that the minis were SOA from the factory?

Looks good!

to answer Jack's question, not much right now, clearance does seem to be an issue, but will soon be resolved. haven't placed bump stops yet, but is still in the game plan.
