    ooh, I need a sway-bar too, I like the location. I will have to see if I can sneak one in there too. Which bar did you use? I look forward to a report back on how it feels.

    Do you notice any roll oversteer on the highway? My roll axis angle was 7* and it was terrifying to drive on the highway, I need to adjust the brackets to lower that, but If you don't notice anything at 2.7*, I will aim for something like that.

    Have you tested your rear driveshaft at full droop? Your fuel tank is inspiring! It looks great. Do you still have a sump and/or baffles for the pick-up? What are you using for a fuel-pump and pick-up? I have an external high pressure fuel pump (Bosch 044) mounted on the bottom of the floor...

    I must be quite a bit heavier. With the hard-top on, I'm 6000lbs, with a 50/50 weight distribution, so I have the same spring rates front and back.

    wow, thats quite a bit lower than mine, I'm at 250/300. I have enough pre-load that I don't have a tender. I was at 200/300 and needed a bit more.

    One thing I have noticed with some friends with the 4:1 low range is that in mud/snow reverse is too low. To get any wheel speed, they have to shift to high to reverse.

    I didn't reuse many factory pieces, but where I did, I plucked the Toyota connector off the old harness and added it onto the Painless harness. This would allow me to replace any Toyota parts and have them connect into the harness. I think the only electrical bits I used from the original truck...

    I used a painless harness when I re-wired my truck, so nice to have each wire tagged the entire length. I re-printed the from/to table and write extra details as I went to help with future troubleshooting.

    On my 3-link, my u-joint at the axle housing is the limiting factor for droop, I would try to truck with the high-pinion or do a cut-and-turn on the knuckles to get the pinion pointed at the t-case.

    I think my down-tilt is 3*. My engine is further forward than most, as I needed to fit the twin-cases.

    When I put the Dana 60, 3-link and 350 in my FJ40, the bottom of the oil-pan is the same elevation as the bottom of the frame, I used a full-width truss on the Dana 60 so the top of the axle is the same elevation all the way across. The top link mount is between the motor and frame rail on the...
