Sugar's bumper arrived, great packaging. Thanks to Trail Tailor for a great bumper. Beautiful work Jason.
Thought I was getting a free hand truck in the deal

Bumper swing out parts are primed and painted. Waiting on the drive line parts to arrive. Covid-19 has really slowed down supply lines on a lot of items I use in the shop.

It was the perfect filler/dunnage box.. I laughed when it fit where it was supposed to.

No and no. Sugar is a 60 on 80 roller with 80 axles and components. Standard 80 series 4 piston calipers.

Sugar will go a long way between fill ups with this 42 gallon tank from Cruiser Brothers. Fuel pump module and float less fuel level sender from Tanks Inc. Primed, Lizard Skin and final paint.

Sugar's bumper is fit, ready to be pulled for paint. 60 bumper mounted in an 80 frame, like it grew there. Trail Tailor makes a great product!

This huge monstrosity is a take out pedal that comes with a 5.3L take out motor.
This is how it looks ready to install. well, after it gets painted.

This NV4500 is going into Sugar. Makes the Toyota trans look like a toy. I have one of these in my pick up, it's been towing hard since 2002, no issues.
Will you run the stock toyota transfer case and if so is there an adapter readily available...or do you run something like a NP202? I don't know much about these cases other than seeing them listed in various classifieds where people did V8 conversions

Stock 60 series split case. That is the adapter on the back of the trans.

The stock 60 series dash is being replaced with a 62 series dash

One of my favorite changes. Are you repainting frame while it's loose?

Yes, the lower dash has been painted Satin Black

This bus plate mounts in the driver's foot well. Relays transform BATT power to IGN and Dash light power using just mili amps from the OEM wiring rather than wiring electrical additions directly to the OEM harness. The dash light bus bar is mounted on the fire wall.

Sugar's finally got the correct adapter! Somebody thought a quart of silicone was a good idea for putting a T case together.
Beautiful build!
@NCFJ
Would you mind taking a few pics of how you mount the "new " seatbelts in the back when you get to that point?
Waiting for a few overseas parts before I start mine & I would love to see how you mount the retractor.
