OK I have been away to long
Kind of rethought the stearing I still do not think that what we came up with was bad.

wow. who flipped for the 4x4 labs stuff?????

 

[78Crusher]

Sure as hell wasn't me!
I talked with Eric and we decided that this was the best safest way to go but talk about getting hit right in the wallet!

I have a spare, new oil cooler for the power steering, the fins are a little bent in places, but very functional.

Would you like it for Eric's no longer so wrecked 40?

 

[78Crusher]

I talked to Phil @ Driveline Service of Pittsburgh (on the phone) when i was looking for a custom front shaft, and he seemed both knowledgeable and helpful... though he couldn't source some of the parts it needed so in the end i went with someone else (not local).

(412) 784-1991
5212 Butler St

The other local places i talked to got all when they heard "metric."

i took mine down to a place in lawrenceville. i thought it was pittsburgh driveshaft. maybe its the same place eds talking about. i just waked right in with a couple shafts, gave him the lengths, and came back in a couple days.

[78Crusher]

Gonna use 92 4-Runner calipers
They are a little bit bigger

 

[78Crusher]

And here it is so far
still have to get brakes done and mount the shocks.

 

[78Crusher]

Brakes are bled and finished!
Need to get good hardware on the anti wrap bar and install the shocks and everything under the cruiser will be done.
Need to fab a shroud for the electric fan and get the headlights working.
Will get pics soon.
