I'm sure this guy doesnt want to have off topic comments right at the start of his thread. If you have nothing to say about the ride/project then keep your fingers to yourself please.

[HEKTIC]

[hilux05]

cheers for the comments guys. heres a few more pics for ya hektic. i didnt sadly take as many photos as i should have when doin the convo, but maybe on the next one!! :)

surgey all plumbed up. looks a bit rough but ill get braided line later on.

 

coilovers to go on with camber tops an PS arms. should make turning alot easier with the locker. and the brakes. like twice the size!!

 

ready to be wired up. did as much as i could but I'm useless at wiring ;)

[hilux05]

heya. also got a pic of these tein positive camber reducing units aswell as some power steering arms. the bloke also gave us some ra40 tie rods and tubes he was running sigma arms but I'm only running xt130 lca's, does anyone know if they'll be too long for the rack ends or should i just wind em' right in?? i want to use these as they are alot newer than mine!!

 

later dayz. richie
