Thanks! I just need some shocks and the lockouts for the hubs and put the front driveshaft in and she is ready to hit the trail! I put a 1" spacer in the front cause the back was sitting a little higher. also made my own caster correction brackets. I'll post up some more pics when the lighting is better.
 
Here are some pics. Updates.

Caster correction plates. Made them myself and welded on. Plumbed a line for the air compressor and have a pressure gauge inside with a switch to turn on. Someday it may run ARB's. right now it actuates the t-case. I need to figure out some type of release blow valve.

What model spacers did you add? What size lift did you start with before I stalling the spacers? Great looking rig man, keep the photos coming.
 
I just used some generic spacers from the local auto parts store.

Thanks. I'll try and keep em coming. It's up for sale if anyone is interested.
 
fuel

Could you post up how you did the fuel lines on you swap?
 
It was pretty simple actually. There is a feed line and a return line. The feed line from the tank is the bigger one. Same on the throttle body. I just cut the soft Toyota lines to the right length to hook up to the hard lines off the throttle body. I lightly flared the hard lines so I got a good seal. Used clamps to snug.
