There would be demand even at $10k, especially if it was a bolt on kit. Here in SoCal, there are tons of trucks running long travel to get out into the desert at high speed. I, for one, would love a LT cruiser over the standard tundra/tacomas that I see.

Awesome!!
The only thing missing is Total Chaos licensing the design so the rest of us can get it.
Agreed. I have been holding out hope that Marlin Crawler will modify their RCLT kit for the Taco over to the 100/200/Tundra group, but that doesn't seem likely because they are taking so long on just the Taco kit.
Obviously price dependent, but there's definitely a demand. I tracked this thread down here after a buddy of mine sent me a screenshot of your Facebook post about it. I'd be very interested in seeing something like this come to market.
You did a ****ing awesome job from what I can see.

This is awesome! I would also love to see something like this come to market.
Just saw this, OP this is bad ass...
Hey Bama, are your cuts on digital files or did you freeform the entire thing? There are sites out there where you can sell plasma/laser table cut files and off road specific ones too. I'm a welder by trade and am interested in building them myself if I could purchase cut files.
I saw this 100 last week. Really badass ride!
Hey OP... How is this running? Break anything yet?

I have the cut files, pretty much a giant jigsaw puzzle, Too hard to put the whole thing in cad them make cuts, a lot of trial and error, the cnc plasma helped replicate parts and keep measurements accurate. Build video pt1 is up on YouTube now.

Awesome, love the build. I'll check out the video.
Edit:
Have you considered cutting the fenders to get more travel?
Man... I would love a long travel kit for this truck.

It has up to 14” of travel, I have it limited to 10” to keep my fenders.
I saw that, was asking if you could get use more of that travel if you cut them and installed flares.
Either way, I'm jealous.
Im with you on Toyota really messed up with the torsion bars. At least they could have offered us both options like they did in other countries to have a solid axle in the front.
Great work, now im tying to figure out how I can afford to pay a shop to do this for me.
