OldGold, I just got me a set of IFS Hubs, calipers, and rotorsProject Cream Dream + The Crush = Colorado fun!-0427092201.jpg. Thats just surface rust, the parts are actually in great condition. Calipers are in good condition and the pads are new! , the rotors won't be used, but they are like new...well after I get a couple of months of surface rust off of em. (might use them on the rear disc swap if possible). It's good to know people who have stuff like this laying around for free . Thanks again for getting me pointed in the right direction.

Don't worry about the surface rust, because you won't be using IFS rotors. What you need are land cruiser (fj-60) rotors. They are .250" taller than the IFS rotors, and line up perfectly with the IFS calipers mounted on the outside of the steering nuckle. Good job on the free parts score!

Well, all good things must someday come to an end. After trying time and time again to help my highly alcoholic shop partner, and having no positive results, I had to pull out of the shop. It was a very hard decision, because as we all know we can't participate in the sport of crawling without a place to fix/modify/tweak our rigs, but I just could no longer subject myself to his anger and aggression while drinking, which unfortunately was 95% of the time. I am happy to say that after 3 full days of wheeling my rig I was very satisfied with its performance, and fortunately nothing broke so I will be able to run some moderate trails until I have a new shop established. It's just very hard to start a shop from scratch. Thanks for all the info and positive feedback on my near 10 month build. I hope to return to this sport with a new shop that carries a much more positive attitude than the previous one did. Happy wheeling!
