Well it's a new year, so I guess it's time to get my butt in gear and build something.

I'm thinking on something along these lines.

How well does the rear shock setup work?

Re: A.j. Kustoms "lil' yj brute"
 

I've had great luck with this setup! This is the 3rd Jeep build I've used it on, it performs very well."thumbsup"

Re: A.j. Kustoms "lil' yj brute"
 

What length rear shocks are you using?

Thanks "thumbsup"

Re: A.j. Kustoms "lil' yj brute"
 

They are 55mm extended."thumbsup"

Re: A.j. Kustoms "lil' yj brute"
 

Thanks. I've got some 55mm touring car shocks, i might give them a shot :mrgreen:

Re: A.j. Kustoms "lil' yj brute"
 

Another quick thing i've just noticed. Why 3 link on the rear not 4?

Re: A.j. Kustoms "lil' yj brute"
 

Very interesting. I'm subbed. Which body is that?

Re: A.j. Kustoms "lil' yj brute"
 

I usually do 4 link the rear, I guess I'm just not happy unless I make things difficult. :ror:

I haven't had as much time as I hoped, but I have managed to get the back of the cab closed in.

Re: A.j. Kustoms "lil' yj brute"

Re: A.j. Kustoms "lil' yj brute"
 

I finally managed to get a little done on the back of the cab.:shock:

Hopefully I can start spending more time on this.:?:

Re: A.j. Kustoms "lil' yj brute"
 

Looks good....funny after the Hilux I thought this was going to be my next build....I like things different....can't have a standard body.

Of course I could always do a Scrambler since I had one of those in college.
