Thank's for the complements! This has been a bunch of work for my OLD bones, but I have enjoyed it! Been a while since I have done any fabrication work, now it time to get off my butt and make some sliders and bumpers for my truck.

I am happy with the way to turned out, the brake line mount and wire harness zip-tie loops worked well. It still needs the drive shaft and bump stops installed and a few little things checked, then it's off on the test drive to see if the frame cracker can break it this weekend! After that it will be back to get the left side boxing kit installed.

Awesome work Kevin. I am sure it will hold up well on the trails.

if this ever brakes again, then I would have to consider it terminal........ ;p

Whow, you are really going all out on this, aren't you? I will have to have a serious word with the truck to make sure he appreciates and values all the attention I am confident it will work like a champ now!

The kit used on Claudia's rig was from: FJ40 Frame Box Kit Not sure if they are still made? Ruff Stuff now makes one: FJ40 Frame Boxing Kit [RE3] - $162.00

he has been relocating that business for at least the past 3 years - no sign of him on the local Louisiana forum, either - I haven't asked around there, but I could if someone wants me to

price was quite similar to the other link

Will that boxing kit work on a 45. I have C channel rot in that area

"Mark W" or "65swb45" would be the MUD members I would ask about that

the vendor I got the frame boxing kit from no longer exists
