Looks good. How's it ride?
yeah, I was gonna tell you that you need some fenders up there now to keep it street legal.
And allegedly, you can swap in a T100 rear axle to keep the front/rear track about the same.
/me officialy adds TC to the 4Runner's list... after getting back to work and taking this damned thing out to play instead of work. HAVE to have something to compare to.

I was thinking that a deaver leaf pack in the rear would be sweet. but also a triangulated 4 link would be really nice too.
Looks awesome by the way

lots of jeep guys do that. Works good on the xj because you just run shock tabs on the u-bolt plate. I have a 97 xj that will be our preunner I cannot decide wether tu run the shocks in a semi stock location or through the floor. My major thing is I likes the ladies and the ladies likes the back seat that folds down ha ha.

I like that idea of in fender well. It is kinda like what alot of the 66-77 bronco guys do too. I am thinking of making a crossbar that goes between my uni-frame rails on my xj and maybe just have them come throught the floor a little(just lit 2-3") and then just make a sheet metal cover for it. I am probably never going to race in jeepspeed but I want a good prerunner for our race trucks.

The A style inboard mount is what I was thinking of doing on my xj. We have not raced or even been to a desert race, but BORE has a couple races around(Jackpot, Ely, Wendover). We are planning on racing the Wendover race on may 1,2 if we can throw some shat together quick.
