Im gonna polish it up the best i can

Took some pics of it today in its hiding spot for now. I got it sitting up on 6" blocks in these pics cause of the gravel.Im also slowly buildin up the motor, so as soon as its done Ill pull it back out and drop it in.

This thing has come a long way.....lookn bad ass bro

DO YOU HAVE ANY PICS AIRED ALL THE WAY UP? AND WERE YOU ABLE TO FIT RE7'S IN THE FRONT

Thanks guys

I agree with the welds I still got alot to learn but I consider myself capable now lol. The thing that bothered me the most were the welds on the notches. I found out after i was done makin the bird poop welds that the polarity was switched around on the welder. Before I painted the frame I ground down the welds and re did it. It came out pretty good.

The front only allowed me to fit re-6 it took a couple days to get it right. Its a really tight fit but it works fine.

This is at 60-80 psi my compressor sucks so it should lift a couple more inches.

yeah im trading my 72 hilux for a luv in a couple weeks and ive been taking notes on yours. the back of the one im getting is gonna be done already but i need to do the front.. so thanks for the sweet build pics

Nice work makes me want a luv

Lookin real good...keep it comin!

hell, if thats at 80 psi without a motor, or interior, or doors, or a fat chick ridin shotgun...it shouldnt be a problem. haha. looks good.

i need some master cylinder parts. got anything left over?
