Awesome and very clean runner, I'm planning on doing the same chopping of the IFS on my 93 4runner and your progress is alot better than mine. I just got the seals in and now trying to figure how how to clean mine without a pressure washer but will figure something out, but cant wait to see the cutting and welding, hope it sails smoothly from here and have you picked up your front IFS eliminator yet?

Thanks man.. its turn out pretty easy, just lots of heavy parts. IFS eliminator was the first to get from TG.. Seems to be pretty worth it since it had everything you'll need. Cutting and welding is 1/2 way done, pictures are in progress.

I say everywhere in Fresno, CA is close by. I use to live in LA and everyone including traffice was 1.5 hrs away from me so its local. I know where clovis and ashlan is at. use to grow up in that neighborhood a very long while ago.. Im actually in the new community here at jensen and clovis area.. we should hook for a beer and talk 4x4 one day....

OK guys, lets get this going again. A lot seems to happen since I post but also seems like not very much has improve.

I had it all plan with SFA completed by last week and start cutting on sat, sun, and be out by monday. We'll since I can lift my truck on jack stands in my garage, decided to hollar at my boy who own a shop. "its nice to have a good friend". But since he is up to he neck on his business, I told him ill be out of his way and on his schedule. so it took me all sat to just put the car in the corner of shop. We had to move 3-4 cars ready for body work. Sunday came around and now we had to find a large, i mean large jack stands. Since he had a lift and offer me to use it, i felt like i was asking too much and rather do it on the ground since who knows how long it might be around there...MON came around and found out my day job changes my hours. im now 930 to 600 so i dont get to the shop at 615 to start working. Since we're all friends in all, my buddy stays open till 800-830. gives me some time to work. MON-THUR cutting and Un bolting the front clip... Made out nicely cause someone wanted the IFS front for 400.00.. good deal... Had a plasma cutter that made life easy and literally took 45 mins to 1 hr of cutting.... FRID-SUND.. no progress but prepping and cleaning the locking hubs and installing new studs and spacers......

Nice to see someone that pays attention to detail. It's always worth the extra effort and the job has the professional look when it's done. Great job!
