Cartzo's 87 4Runner Homemade Long-Travel Build

[Cartzo]

Finalized the shock mounts so I could start on the crossbrace. The cross brace took way longer to make than it probably looks like because all I had to work with was a 3"x1.5" tube. I cut it down to about 2"x1.5" to perfectly fit the bushings I used which added a lot more avoidable cutting and welding. Turned out okay in the end. Again, gotta do what ya gotta do!

Little bit o' weld porn

A couple quick hood mounts and shes looking pretty mean already! Oh did I mention I'm finally out of the 31" tire club?? She's on her own weight once again and sitting sexy on 37s. Somehow they still look small to me, but boy I'm loving the stance even with the terribly backspaced wheels. I'm sure my drivetrain is going to love them too!

This is really cool. I'm building a LT setup for my 2nd gen pickup based off your original control arm pictures that I found on Google. It's awesome that this truck is still being built
