Interested! Depends if it comes unassembled, price and shipping to 00921
 
Interested, and if shipping is too much of a hassle... I'll just drive there, I'm in Denver.
 
Updated list, is there anyone missing thus far?

Finish the CAD updates, Getting quotes tomorrow at quantity.. from their i can figure cost for the kit then i just have to figure out shipping..
 
Looks very good!
I'm wanting a solid rear bumper for some time now, but never put myself in starting to make one...
I have all the items like spindles and hatches. Making the swing outs isn't holding me back. It's the rear bumper itself... Therefore I'm trying to find a plain solid steel rear bumper so I can install my own swingouts. But here in Europe no luck... There was a french company, but they stoppped making it for the 80. I've contacted 4x4 labs for a DIY kit, but they never gave me aanswer on the shipping cost question... So could you find out how much it would cost me to ship it to Belgium? Or selling me the cad drawings?
Greetz and keep up the amazing work!

Greetz, Get/keep in touch with StianHdj80, we have talked a bit about Europe..
 
Please add me to the interested list. I'm in Boise, ID.
 
Gents i need a quick measurement from someone elses frame..

there is a 4 hole pattern on the drivers side, it has the same pattern on the passenger side where the exhaust bracket is.

I need the hole pattern and a distance from the bottom of the frame to bottom holes.

I know some of you guys have these as dd's at work..

thanks for the help.
 
Sorry, not out with the cruiser today!

I'll be home in 5 and measure unless someone beats me to it.

Edit. 3.1 inches by 3.1 inches. Center of holes to center of holes

The frame is rounded a little so center of bottom hole to bottom of frame is .5-.75 inches depending on where I measure from.

Edit 2. I reread what you wanted. From center of bottom hole to bottom of the frame is .75 inches.

Let me know if you want these in cm or even mm.

80.2 x 78.9 center to center. That's the best I could do upside down in the street haha.

17.2 mm from center bottom hole to bottom of the frame. But that's going to be the hardest to measure between two people and two methods based on the rounded portion of the frame on the bottom.

I would try a square off the bottom of the frame and the ruler at 0 at the top of the first bolt hole.
Measure the start of the top of the hole and the bottom of the same hole and so on.That might work better for more consistent measurements.

Just a thought.
 
Hey no worries. Hope it helped. It's the least I could do with you designing and resourcing this sucker.
 
Boise Family Pick-up

I'm very interested. Is LX450 mounting the same,I have a 96? I'll be in Park City 26-28 April for my son and daughter's Taekwondo Tourney. I'll drive my LX450 and pull my trailer if any Boise folks want to chip in for gas. My LX runs on Guiness :beer: of course I have to run the price by the boss:princess:
 
Idea

This is coming together really nicely!

Is a price available yet? Assembled and unassembled?

If we get enough Texas orders I could make a run towards SLC. Maybe we could convince Mderrick to meet me somewhere in the middle or I do 75% of the distance and he does 25%?

I just need a trailer.

Get out of school the first week in may and then teaching a Maymester class. Could go beginning / middle of June.
