Looks really good. I would love to know your front suspension geometry. I'm thinking about possibly linking an FJ I'm building and like to see what others do. Build is coming along nicely.

Very impressive sheet metal work on the inner fenders. My only concern would be lack of air flow through the engine bay. It looks like it is well sealed up. Maybe consider using some perforated metal in place of the sheet metal. My $.02.

Nice build, but you’d better flip that bezel before any resto only kermudgens from the 40-55 section takes a look.

He's right, don't want to get caught by the bezel police!

I didn't see a response, are you going to strengthen the axle side panhard bar mount?

What in particular would you like to know? Happy to help

when I saw some of his first pics, I thought "you better brace that lower link mount or you're in for some fun"
and then I saw some later pics he posted and he braced them really nice.

I'm guessing its the same on the panhard mount

Yes panhard mounted is *very reinforced

I'd mainly like to know your anti-dive numbers and how you achieved them. That is the one thing that a lot of people debate. Some say that 50-55% is good, a lot of people on pirate say that they like 100-125%. I was wondering what you decided to do, and would eventually like to know how it handles once you get the rig running.

Thanks, DJ.

sick build! what's the status?

 

[peesalot]

will the drag link end on the pitman arm tolerate full drop pass side ?

Need some updates on your build. From what I can see covered up in the engine bay, looks like a 5.3L or bigger swap in there. If so, what exhaust headers are you running? Stock? Any clearance issues? Can you post some pictures of engine bay? Getting to the point of fabing all my suspension up.
