05 TUNDRA
Symptoms: Bad CV Boots, Stacked Lift Kits
Diagnosis- Needs D60
Specs:
High Pinion Dana 60- 4.10 Gears fresh bearings, Diff Bearings, wheel Bearings, Fresh King pin rebuild
6 Lug Hubs
Tundra Calipers, and Rotors
Radius arms- 2.5 DOM- .25 Wall
2.63" Joints and Bushings
Fox 2.0 12'' Remote Resevoir Coilovers
New Toyota IFS Steering Box
Chevy 1 Ton Tie Rod and drag link ends- 1.25 Tube - .25 Wall
We will add some more detail but this is the jist of it. Thanks to Olivers for hooking up the driveshaft. Thanks To Carolina Trugies for the Joints, and Coilovers. 4wheel parts for their alignment specialties and RTI Ramp. No thanks to ballistic we waited 22 days for the radius arm/coilover mounts. Good product but I could have shaped them from solid stock and a hand file in 22 days.
The abortion:

SHE is running 35's Stock 8.4 rear axle but its ready for a 14 bolt. V8 Engine totes it around pretty good. depending on useage the 8.4 will live for quiet a while.

Oh and the question "Is she hot" has come up alot. Are rhetorical answer. " She is definetly not ugly!"

Humm what age group are we talking...also pics or it didnt happen :lol:
 
radius arms are .375" wall. i cant give away all my secrets but here are some other pictures i hid from chase.

tundra brake setup, we did this because the "other guys" 6 lug brake setups are really chintzy and use the small metric chevy calipers and rotors. this way any monkey can install factory rotors and pads when its time for a brake job.

Funny Story:

Metty: Ya a chick drives this.
Me: Is she hot ?
Metty: Ummm.. Well she's not ugly..
5mins pass....... BigJuggy shows up...
Juggy: Hey this is cool
Metty: Ya a chick drives this.
Me: <Already laughing>
Juggy: Is she hot ?
Metty: Ummm.. Well she's not ugly..
 
Very cool swap.. I really like using the OEM brakes, no farting around with new MC's, proportioning valves, or any of that crap required!
 
I think at one time when Chase was ordering parts from me for this truck, the subject also came up.

Me: that guy has got ballz for cutting up that truck
Chase: that guy is a chick
Me: Is she hot?
Chase: well, she's not ugly
