Seriously, those welds are amazing and look like artwork.

Front axle is coiled up. 11" of travel on the Dobinson IMS shocks.

I pushed the axle forward about 5/8" to help with the 35s clearance.

Should ge tthe drivetrain set in the next week to 10 days and then the fun will begin on another LS3 swap.

I love the graphics, very tasteful and well executed. I have stripes on my 60 and 100 and Im fighting the urge to put them on my 40.

 

[Augustiron]

Do want.

 

[Mrsha007]

That pin stripe is perfect.

Knowing what I know now, this is the way I would have done mine, but mine is good for what it is so that will never happen. But this is IMHO the best form the FJ60 could ever have to be fun and useful. I think this is my favorite build I've seen yet. Very excited to see it come together.

 

[TRAIL TAILOR]

Assembled

Made a custom Tcase shifter mount bracket and transmission mount. (will post those later)

Ready to install in the morning.
