ok cool .. lets chat .. PM me but .. as far as the build thread goes .. were getting off topic .

yeah .. no . I would love to be able to build that stuff , but the injenction machines are a little pricy , mill. + .. dyes / moulds run ~ $100 G each .. or products must be purchaced in buik Qtys ~ 1000 + to start . I' dont have that kind of coin to purchace on speculation of customers...

not a problem .. your welcome anytime . fenders are quite flexy .. ya just can fold them in 1/2 :) .

also got the drivers side cleand and prepped this weekend and :( .. drivers side has rust as well I think to be safe , i'm going to cut it all out .. front and back rocker area , and strengthin both sides before I build the body mounts and just for some giggles .. heres the pile of...

thanks for the ideas .. rear strut angle was carfully calculated 34* .. due to the weight /HP .. specific "squat" when on the skinny pedal .. the angle would be best for full dampning . remember this is NOT a Daily driver .. but more a show/track/drift truck .. fronts will be "stock" position...

1 side done .. and ready .

prepping the inner rockers for the new body mounts .. I of course found rust :( .. so now I have to fix that first .. I was really surprised , this cab was in awesome shape no rust at all , or so I thought .. just goes to show you , even if you think you have no rust .. you probabally do ...

struts are fairly new .. the previous owner had just replaced them + he added new tokico coils .. so i'm not going to replace them , just powder coat them + this is also why I'm going to keep the TEMS .. I know it's "overrated" and dosnt really do that much , but why not !! .

found some time today , so I finally cut the floor out for the body drop .

added some rear suspension today .. not done yet , still some tube to add , but the rear is off the jack stands :) .

yep .. from KMS .. it's a manual for now .. we'll see on the hydrolics, probabaly going to do that sooner then later !!! I do want a cage , so I'm going to do a full front, remember .. complete flip front is also what i'm going to build so I need area for mounting shit on the inners . Rears...

yeah thanks bud .. I'll still have to "draw" it all up .. and figure things out .. but check it out !! my first bend with my new bender :) 2" OD Sced 40 120 wall It's actually going to be my bend tool .. so I'm going to try out my powder coating as well with powdercoating it and saving...

so a little bit more cutting :) also .. interior is now completely gutted .. I'm now going to stay with the adjustable coilovers , and just do a body drop .. I believe I will get better handling from the coilovers .

yeah 2WD .. full custom !! maybe I should do this instead .. holy FUK! .. can you say " drift" :) . ---------- Post added at 09:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:00 PM ---------- YIKES .. 3G for 2 front struts and an air tank .. seriously ? and thats there "basic"...

thnks .. I`ll have a look

I was workin' on airride http://www.ridetech.com/ .. but now again .. I'm not sure ? not going to do air shocks , but maybe back to the coilover w/cantalever .. at this point .. it's back to "square 1" .. this weekend I tore out the steering set up I did .. also the cowl area has rusted...

so I was able to "dig" all my stuff out of storage and get it up on the shelves .. . ---------- Post added at 07:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:45 PM ---------- also .. got to work on the wheels and stance today .. New fenders with my big fat rollers they fit...

thanks .. I did .. Talked to Danny , but because it's an import , they really didnt know . I think I can squeeze the 7000 in there , but it's width is 4" , and that is basically the opening of the front A arm , so there will be a little "touching" happening I think . I can also "sleeve" the bag...

with the air ride , I can "set" ride height and it will keep it there .. I would have 3 different settings , so I can drop it at the shows , and with the touch of a button have the exact ride height .. no guessing also , love your engine !! VERY nice build dude . I know I was going to do...

I have supra cradles mounted on my custom "hot rod" frame , and I want the air suspension instead of the coilovers . I have check out airride.com , and am most likely going to use those , but the upper A arm on the front is a very tight fit as the smallest diameter of air they have is...
