I love your colour scheme mate. Looks even better when it gets dirty.

Thanks for the compliments!

New tires will be here later this week so I'll be installing my lift shackles tonight or tomorrow depending on this big rain storm :) also started work on a new bed cage/rack for my gear and surfboard.

Well, we're all ready for tomorrow afternoon down at the beach...

Did a bit of trimming, added the shackles, tires and bumper. Spooled the winch up with some dyneema and installed the 4mm wheel hexes.

do you have a link to where you got that bumper"thumbsup"

Scale Bumper | Scale bumper Hilux ARB | RCmodelex - specialized for RC rock crawling, trial and expeditions

The bumper is from RCmodelex and it's made to fit the tamiya Hilux. I built a custom mount to run it on the TF2.

Here are some better detailed pics of the mount on my last TF2.

dont have a way to weld or braze

Re: '83 Toyota 4x4 SR5
 
You could do something without the RCmodelex brackets. Just use some small angle steel or aluminium on each side and a few holes. Once you have it in hand it will seem much easier.

Went out today in Kittery Point...Josh broke out the leaf blower and cleared a big section of sectioned granite. Even with the HUGE Baja Claws there were some sections that would have loved 2.2's. had a few rolls and lots of trail-side pinstriping. I ended my day a bit early after my servo horn went on permanent vacation.
