Default Toyota truck build

Well slowly but surely im trying to build my truck. Keep in mind im a full time student and fulltime worker for a marina. So that being said this will deffinetly be a slow build. But ill show you guys what i have done so far. Plans are new cage that integrates to the rear, kind of a half in-cab cage and half exo deal. chevy springs, Oh and new seats, fuel cell, and a 4 point harness. On to the pics

Started as a very very very clean ifs lifted toyota truck that i soon destroyed over the years. I will try to find a pic of it brand new haha.

Then did your normal SAS, dual t-case, and yada yada


Now it looks like this so far.

Then took gas tank off and had fun with the plasma cutter,,,and more cutting to come. Got tired and needed a beer.




Also cut the fenders out more and took the headlights out.

The skackle angle is a little steep i think it was 60degrees or something but i did that to compensate for the cage and spare tire goin back there. ON to the pics.
