that is such a sick build in such a short time frame, you obviously had experience with building mini trucks before right?

haha nope, this is my first truck. ive got a bmw that i had a v8 put in (and a few other mods) but this is my first go at this sorta thing (and my flatmates first go at editing )

ha ha that is top work for someone who never built minitrucks before, keep it up

in your front suspension mounting points did you weld in a tube between those two plates where the upper control arms bolt up, i didn't get a good look at it in your video

cheers. yeah there's a tube on each side which the oem supra top suspension bolt goes through. ive left some clearance on each side which im going to fill with smaller tubes and packers, so that i can adjust the castor by moving the packers around (essentially just sliding the front arm forward or backward). the bottom arms will have the same feature too, so that i can tweak the wheelbase a little bit if i need to (before setting up the steering though).
