Tundra time!

[distinctive pd]

Started this a few weeks ago, I've had this body sitting on the shelf for a couple years, time to get after it.
Chassis is element ecto based (will maintain the trailing arms for the rear) and added a bunch of tube work.

More to come

This is cool. I like the commitment to welding on to the element chassis rails.

Interested to see where you go with it.

I was looking at your rear upper shock mounts and they remind me of my moon buggy. I though I had the angle figured out but ended up off the mark far enough that the rod ends would bind a bit at full compression. I cant tell if you're getting similar binding or not but before I ultimately fixed mine with new links I used some Dlux Fab offset caps to lay them down more and better align them with my shock mounts. That will lower the rear a bit but maybe a longer rod end could make up the difference.
It also looks like you could potentially move the sway bar end links to the outside of the trailing arms and push the shock back 1 hole.

Oh and the Tundra is looking sick!

No binding here
