FJ40 Rear 4 link in progress (1 Viewer)

[cjetr]

Working to get the 4 link finished before the TAC FlatNasty run next week. Here are some progress photos.

Brackets are from Ballistic Fab. You still need to fit them and weld them up but it saves a fair ammount of time over starting from complete scratch.

You mean the spacers between the head and nut of the bolts right?

Other than the welded link bracket to the tube, do you have another central brace coming off the diff cover somehow? You know BTF makes a pinion snout to link bracket brace FYI - that's what I'm using..... Clean that biatch up dude

The links in the picture are just for setup. The actual links are 4141 heat treated 1.75 .190 wall hard as crap tube.

Yea it needs to be cleaned up. It hasn't had a bath since Tellico this spring.

There is another bracket I need to weld onto the truss that ties into the diff cover. The diff cover is 3/8 plate.

Don't tie it into the diff cover, tie it into the 14 bolt pinion..
