After a week w/out my truck, I finally picked it up this morning and it looks sick! So here are the pics.

Removable engine brace

Strapped at a quarter inch before full droop, and bumped when the UCA contacts the fender allowing the uniball bolt to pass through a small hole for maximum up travel. the bump stops are 4" stroke converted to 2" stroke and all mounts are reinforced for extra strength. To rain on my parade, while test driving, the axle shaft on the driverside pulled out of the race and the boot torn. So temporary fix we removed the driverside cv out and drove home 3wd. Went to Trabuco creek road by my house to test it and was amazingly plush in the front that i could totally tell the back could not keep up. I locked the rear diff in2wd and stepped on the gas and BOOM! I blew the rear diff. I may just upgrade the rear gears and remove the front diff till the gaers are available cause 35's are too much for the 3.36 gears. Other than that, It was a great ride.

There sure are some pretty welds in that fab work.

i wonder who the first will be to chop the spindle and relocate the upper.

very nice setup.

Nice setup! Beefy

 

[mike]

impressive!

Did DMZ make the arms also?

Looks awesome Lance; Tim always does super nice work! Did he say how much travel you are getting with the 4wd?

i wonder who the first will be to chop the spindle and relocate the upper.

very nice setup.

Why you gotta be a d!ck Andy; you know I told you that's how I am re-building my front end? Shoot!:nana:

Actually, Greg is the first, and only one to has done it...I should be the second.

impressive!

looks good!

very nice setup.

I relocated my uppers and lengthened them 1"
arm piviots went in 1" and down 1"

didn't really want to chop the spindle tho, but my spindles are a lil shorter cause I welded my uniball cups in the spindle...
That and I kinda like the wider spacing between the upper and lower arms it has less stress on your upper arm and frame...

well I'm jealous. Looks clean. I got to see it in person someday along with terribleone's truck.

If you are waiting on the gears from Superior, be ready for a long wait. You will be in 2wd for a good long while. 35's are definitely too much for 3.36 if you are going to be on the skinny pedal alot. We are running 3.69's up front and in the rear and we plan on upgrading to 35's. The calculator's for gear & tire size say that's just about perfect. So either replace the gears with what you already have or upgrade to 3.69's. Maybe see if you can find a set of 33's that you can run until those gears you want come out.

The suspension upgrade looks great..those welds are fantastic.

i agree! i posted the wheels to be sold and went back to my worn 33's. axle is blown so its inoperable. I hope gears will come out but not holding my breath but will run in 2wd with 4.10 until the gears will come out. 4.10 is what will come out first if they eventually do get them done correct? So ill start with the rear right now. Fortunately I can still do a lot of wheeling in 2wd in so cal. Once the gears are available, i'll head out to glamis

yea just read your thread and im planning on selling those too. we can definitely work something out. welcome back again

 

[bamer02]

thanks lance...pm me or something. definitely interested. not really in a rush to buy, so i can wait for what you have. besides, you're local so i wont worry about shipping.

 

[dunefronty]

how much did the shock hoops and fabrication come out to in the end..... if u dont mind me asking

 

[carphreak]

nice setup lance. does the truck still sit at the same ride height as before or did it go higher/lower?

 

[ToddG]

Wicked set up.
As was said, those welds are perfection.
Get that rig 100% and gives us some more pics of getting air. :thumbsup:

Man I just checked out DMZ's website and Im really liking a lot of their work. Really clean even though its all toyotas. But if they're starting to work on nissans then thats sweet.
