upper link mounts are on the frame and 95% complete(They are going to guesset back to the lower mounts as soon as I get them finished) I am also going to put a bracket (bolt on/off) to brace it to the x-mamber aswell for more support...every little bit helps
You can kinda make out where the upper link and lowers will join together
D.side installed(95% complete)
P.side looking forward from x-member
looking forward toward front of truck and you can see where the upper attaches to the axle and you can see how tight of tolerences I have. Damn, being low is tough to work around
D.side looking forward(Exhaust is gonna be a bitch, glad I'm not doing it)
Center looking forward
P.side
toyotanuts....Man I wish, I'm still lacking about $5G to finish it...I think I actually met you before though...I met you at the TTORA takeover @ Paragon...I was running the yellow Budbuilt truck(the one with dual tranny's)

You just wait 'til I gettem' finished
This buildup is phenomenal! Keep up the good work! I came to the "Hardcore Corner" Looking for some ideas for sliders for my 100, and I am leaving with a desire to convert my Heep's suspension to coil-overs. Hope you can finish by April, and I will be stopping by to see how everything turns out.

Well I'm back...I haven't had much time for my rig latley....
Or $$$ for it. I just bought a house(for a steal!) and I'm remodeling it
not to mention my new towrig('03 CTD Crew Cab Dually) BUT! the good news is is that my links will be getting finished soon...once they are done and on I'm going to finish the tubework...bedcage, internal cage, front shock setup, sliders, and front bumper
there is a good possibility I will be selling my 3.4 and R151F infavor or more cylinders and an automatic(with Dual toyota cases of course)

Impressive build............the biggest input into any project such as this is always the thought process
that goes into combining all the pieces to eventually come up with something that not only looks the
goods, but actually works. I can't wait to see the end result in action! Ye-gotta-love the Lux..........

More progress tonight...
2 of the interior cage "feet" are in....boy are these a pain in the ass...each one mounts with 4 bolts through 2 plates and a piece of 1.5" tubing through the center of it after it is all in place a piece of 1 3/4" DOM will slide over and then weld to the plate. The 1.5" will be welded only on 1 side of the plate(just incase I have to remove the cab)
I'm firing up the Bend-tech program right now so I can map out the "roll bar" that will sit on each plate...I'll post up a pic of the interior cage design as soon as I get it mapped
