Thanks man. The bolt came out because he tore it all down for paint and reused the nut and didnt tq it, or even check it after its first trip. He didnt even know the bolt had fell out till he tried to turn around at the end of the whoops. Guess he found the bolt a 1/4-1/2 mile back in the sand.

Trucks coming in to the new shop for bedcage, bed sides, and roof rack in next few days. Soon as i finish Jeffs truck.

i torqued it down and have been checking things a lot closer thanks for the tips guys

flaging up for the huckfest trip

new cage

Dude you totally stole my idea!! I was gonna run ambers where you put ur taillights!!!

lol i gave him the idea. he wanted to cut those bedsides and put his old uero's in them.

Well thanks alot dude i'm still gonna do it anyways.

shhhhhhhhhhhhhhh we all can share

Truck looks great man, Ive seen this thing up close and the work is top notch. Clean looking truck for sure!



I was the dude with the white tacoma that took emt at weil.

Sick truck its coming out nicely. My buddy wants me to help him make a kit for his 150 and im glad i stumbled on to your build. What would you recommend for budget spindles? I may just have him do something similar to what you did, but he might have some cash for some now.

budget spindles? lol this was about as budget as it gets. lift spindle drilled and tapped for a 1.25 heim

Any finished pics of the bedcage?

By budget spindles I meant a cheap lift spindle or fabbed spindle. I may just make some custom ones though cause it would be cheaper that way.
The truck looks great

for a good fabbed spindle expect to spend around 5-600 just to build it yourself. a lift spindle from aim, fabtech, racho, rough country is all the same. they will work for awhile.

s1k truck build

Not quite that much, we have a waterjet, cnc and plasma and mastercam and solidworks at the high school my buddy goes to so basically its just going to be materials, snouts, and uniballs. The high school has an unbelievable metals and engineering shop

Wow, nice. I thought I was badass for having a plasmacam available to me in highschool. It's allot of work but if you know what your doin your set.
