Front axle still available? If so, willing to split the set? Smitty

This one is KING :rofl: https://downsouthmotorsports.com/i-23899629-king-shocks-2-0-replacement-steering-stabilizer-for-toyota-land-cruiser-80-series-20c001-201.html

Congrats on the purchase. As for a 4" being a starter lift...that made me chuckle more than it should have. As I ask most everyone that asks these questions, "what is the use case for this truck?" You do not need 4" lift to get 35" tires on...

Lift really depends on your overall plans. I have had my 80 for over 20 years and it has been an evolution. If not planning on a lot of weight (bumpers, sliders, winch, etc), I would avoid heavy springs as the ride will be harsh. I have a 4"...

It is out! Justin, Justin and Addison are local Cruiserheads and are LEGENDS! They showed up and went to work. You can tell they have done some difficult recoveries before and they nailed it! Thank you everyone in this group that helped out...

Nothing yet. Can’t get any tow companies willing to come help out. Still working the problem. Really must have one more truck to tie myself off while winching. Two more trucks would be ideal so I would have another one to tie the driver side...

I went by the local Toyota dealer and they will sell me a short block for $4000. But, we decided to pull the engine apart and just see what we had. So out it came, transmission and all. Then my son gave it a quick wash with some degreaser...

Any worry about driveline vibes/clearance issues with that much caster? I do have a DC front DS and sway bar drop blocks.

I ran Delta 6” arms on 4.5” of front lift with 37’s for four years until that 80 got killed off-road and liked the extra castor angle which was about 5.5* as measured across the top of the upper knuckle. My new build will rbe set up the same...

I thought about it but knew that I didn't have all of the information that he would want and the website clearly says that he they won't tell me which arms so get to out of respect for their wishes, I am asking here ;)

I have read and read but figured I would just ask. I don’t have the ability to measure caster with stock arms since my stock arms are long gone. Got an alignment this weekend and they found my passenger control arm cracked 😳. Needless to say, I...
