Damn your 4R looks good. I really want to run 35's just like this, in somewhat stock appearing form and not too high. I may have missed it in your writeup, but have regeared at all yet?

No regear; the V8 still provides me more than enough power. If I wasn't nervous about breaking spindles and more CV axles I'd go to 37's

So whats wrong with the atrac that you need an entire front section of frame and all? Or are you gonna pick parts off the front section?

I literally just needed the ABS sensor and wheel bearing; but got the whole things for $100 bucks. Bonus I needed a new break dust shield as well

I hear ya on that. Since you've got a spare passenger spindle now you should see about picking up a drivers side and then you could get them all gusseted up and just swap them in when you have time. Instead of pulling yours to gusset and having even more down time!

Great minds think alike; picking up gussets from ToyTec this week

Solid, since you'll welding be welding and already have the front end tore apart you may also want to go ahead and weld on the Total Chaos alignment cam tabs. Little extra beef cant hurt.

Badass build. Wish I could run 35's! Can't wait to see what you have in store next man.

I have not heard of those, but will definitely be checking into it! Extra strength definently eases the mind on the trail
Thanks!

THE PICTURES ON THIS PAGE WERE SIZED WRONG ORIGINALLY AND MAKE IT HARD TO NAVIGATE
Thanks photo bucket for wanting money for sharing
The 35's are sweet! Definitely a commitment though to make it work. - I can't wait to see what I do next either, usually sh*t happens and I'm along for the ride with a wrench in hand

Nice!!I have turned 1000 miles on the "new" motor and all is well. Here are some photos of the culprit for failure
Got some spindle gussets on there:
Also, did a mountain scene at cocktails and canvas- had to add the Runner and RTT

Do you have the steel skidplates from RCI? Also, did the transmission skiplate come with those braces or did you add them?
I bought my aluminum RCI skidplates in 2017 and they do not have those ribs

Just like the cut out of the front amid says, RCI.. they are steel, and the aluminum bracing on the tranny skid is the additional tranny reinforcement option
