Digging those arms

They are very well built and Tony at TK1 is great to work with.

 

[TRAIL TAILOR]

Tremec arrived with bell and clutch kit. Axis 23 spline to HF2A arrived.

Pulled the spare rebuilt HF2A from @orangefj45 (need another brother!!--- bring up with engines, transmissions and elocked 3rds)

Have you considered doing a 14 bolt in the rear?

 

[klip]

Where did you get the rear full float spindles?

 

[4runner2FJ60]

My partner shop makes most of my machined parts.

I only have 3 sets remaining currently and all are spoken for on axle builds.

I'll have another run made as well as knuckle balls in the next 60 days.

That’s awesome! Very nice looking parts. About a year ago I was searching high and low for those spindles. Only found one company that has them and they were impossible to do business with. My plan has changed since. Really look forward to seeing your axle builds.

I've built 30 or so in the past couple years. They are throughout my build threads.

Stripping all the old jute padding off the floor. Pulled the headliner and stripped the roof as well.

Working on the coilover tower design. With having to inset around the 80 steering box I'm using 1/4" HSLA material for the towers. Should have this done soon and off to the laser cutter.

Pulled the body. Will get started stripping the firewall lines and get to cleaning the underbelly.

ROLLING CHASSIS IS SPOKEN FOR, NOT AVAILABLE.

I am doing the exact same set up. What Bellhousing did you go with, Quickdraw? Looks different than mine from advance adaptors.
Thnx
