had it stripped down in no time

 

[lwb86]

took the housing to work with me and stripped it of all the brackets with the shop plasma (on my list next for shop tools)

 

[lwb86]

got it home and clean it up with a grinder and some cutoff disks then prepped it for a cut and turn

 

[lwb86]

cut turned and v'd ready for welding

 

[lwb86]

here it is all welded up with ruffstuff perches

 

[lwb86]

next up I dug around in my stash of parts for these

ifs hubs from a 86 4runner

 

[Mace]

Anyone making the spacers for the IFS hubs now a days?

 

[lwb86]

I don't know mace I went a different route one that's not really advertised as doable on a cruiser axle

 

[lwb86]

I had the mounting surface turned down about 5/8ths

 

[lwb86]

About that time parts showed up for the used lockrite steve at extreme bends had hooked me up with showed up.

 

[lwb86]

Swapped in the lock rite. Man I love working on the bigger cruiser diffs compared to the mini truck stuff.

 

[lwb86]

And this is why I turned down the ifs hubs

 

[lwb86]

I did the tacoma brake upgrade

I did the tacoma brake upgrade

That turned out awesome!

 

[Mace]

Interesting, did you space the spindle out as well? Longer Birf?

 

[lwb86]

No spacer on the spindle and stock length birfs

 

[lwb86]

Still fits stock cruiser rims which was opposite to what I had read about this kit

 

[lwb86]

Measures up to 62 wms to wms which is perfect for the rear diffs im building.

 

[lwb86]

Here's the test fit with the rims

 

[lwb86]

And here is with tires on
