3rd Gen 4Runner Full Widths Fox 16" Coilovers **UPDATE**

*****NEW PICS***** more pics on page 2


Here's pics of what I've done to my 4runner tonight.
I built an engine cage and put a set of Fox 16" coilovers in the front. I still have alot to do but it is sitting on the coilovers.

I still have alot of work but it won't be long. I think I'm gonna ditch the TJM so I can connect the engine cage to a stinger and improve clearence. I need alot more 1 3/4" dom and alot more welding. I plated the frame w/ 1/4" and need to finish the steering. I am using a stock pitman arm, chevy tirod to heim joints. I also need to finish the drive shafts. I am gonna use PTO slip shafts from Tractor Supply and weld the yokes on. I have all the parts I need to rebuild the axles and a rear disc conversion but I want to get it rolling befor I tackle that stuff.

i would think grade 8 bolts should be used to hold the coilovers on. wouldn't that area be under a lot of stress at times?
