I want pink OME shocks. So I got the rear all leafed up. Pretty straight forward stuff. I used a mix of Gmade, Tamiya and RC4WD parts. I wanted to go spring under for a lower ride and stock application. I filed a flat spot on the axles to better fit the springs. No time for U bolts and junk right now. | |

Very nice, but the top of that fuel cell is way too clean.

Hey Rich, Is there a reason why you didn't just flip the axles?? |

| Re: pardonmyn00b's RC4WD Gelande 2 w/Cruiser Body Kit That's right and that's not really where the fuel tank is anyway. It will probably disappear too. Cuz the front diff would be on the wrong side. And that's much worse than a 4 linked FJ40 |

Bit of a roadblock with the front. There is a large chunk of aluminum where I need put the front shackles. Edit: as soon as I finished typing this I came up with a solution. Last edited by pardonmyn00b; 02-26-2015 at 06:02 PM. | |

I knew it would only be a matter of time before you leaf'd this. It's cooler than the other side of the pillow now. Kind of making me want to de-bar my Hilux build...

I think chino did that with yota axles before. Used a second front axle in the rear and made new tubes for it. | |
