UPDATE! Spent the summer on the bike instead of in the shop, But now that its too cold to ride, its time to get cracking on the truck again!
Got the truck back in the shop with a little help from the excavator..
Then this happened...

Haha. Yeah Its long over due to come out. Where both of the LCAs connect to the frame in the back were starting to peel off the frame... cant imagine why...
I will say that impressed how well the IFS held up. I never broke a cv (factory toyota) But just about every ball joint and tie rod has some wiggle to it.
Will start cleaning up the frame and dissembling the IFS parts tonight. Ill be using the hubs, break calipers, and lock outs on the SA. The trucks been broken since Aug of 2012, so I cant wait to wheel it. Hopefully I can get some snow wheelin in this year...
Heres some pics from 2012, mostly as motivation to me. haha. Was a brisk -5 that day.
And from the day I blew up the front R&P which started this long overhaul. (but not at this spot, surprisingly)
Ill try not to bore up the thread with minor details and just update when the big things happen.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone.
Got a bunch of diffs as parts and one of them came to me like this. The lid was sealed on but it had a small hole and filled with water.
In the bucket is a 4cly 4.10 diff with locker and a set of high steer arms.
We chipped it out then melted the ice away with a propane torch, We didnt end up using this one, It needed new bearings before, but it definitely needs a them now.
The diff work bench:
3 4cly 4.10s with lunch box lockers, 1 working, 1 with a broken center pin, 1 frozen in a bucket. 2 4cly 4.10 diffs welded, both have broken welds, 1 needs a pinion, 1 needs a ring gear. And 1 completely stock 4.10 open with a broken pinion.
Didnt really need that many, but the price was right. We replaced the center pin from broken lunch box with one from welded carrier. Now I have a working set of 4.10 diffs with lockers ready to go.
Then I pulled the leaf packs apart to set up my front leafs.
Got them in the orientation ill be running them in, but still need to cut them down. Planning on running a 7 leaf pack. 1st and 2nd are stock 88 rear leafs. 3rd and 4th will be 1st and 2nd from the 92 Downey pack. 5th is the 3rd from the 88, and 6th and 7th will be from the Downey pack. Ill get them cut and put together Monday after work.

Some mock up pics.
Actual ride height will but about 3-4 inches taller. The axle isnt in the center of the wheel.
The axle is right under the lowest point of my oil pan.. So I might try to hunt down a pickup 2wd pan.
Well resume axle building next weekend

Nice work man. I had roughly the same pack with seven and it didn't flex well. May need to adjust later.
Looks good

Good to know! Iv already pulled the long leafs to get cut and replace the shortest leaf on the bottom, which is a tad bent, shooting for a 6 leaf pack.
Final leaf spring combo is
1st - 88 main leaf
2nd - 88 mil Wrap
3rd - 88 3rd
4th - 92 3rd with clamps
5th - 92 main cut to 24 with flipped around and re drilled
6th - 92 mil wrap cut to 17 flipped around and re drilled

I had a old Downey set I used a few out of. After I flexed it, I removed the 3rd or 4th out of mine it was nice since it had clamps though.

Drilled out the break holes to 1/2 " and made a 5th Stud.
Used a 1.5'' X 1/2'' grade 8 bolt.
The nut is welded to the back of the knuckle. A lock washer will help the bolt not hang down so low, but there is plenty of clearance between the nut and the ball.
Hanger and shackle tubes all welded up.
Ground down my IFS hubs to fit the 97 taco rims. If I was running a steel rim, I could probably use the stock studs, but I need to get some longer to fit the MT aluminum rims.
Stock V6 Calipers ground out a bit to fit the taco rotors, and I drilled out the bolt holes to 1/2".
And got a coat of paint on everything.
Merry christmas all

The axles isnt under it yet, the tires are just sitting there for the picture. Ill be able to get a "ride height" pick next weekend, which should be about 4" taller than that.
