Love it.. Looks way better with the new flat bed imo.. Must have added some extra weight?

yea a little more weight. helps keep it controllable lol it was super twitchy before

so got into it and started thrashing today.

got it all torn down


threw a new wheel on the front and of course it doesn't clear the coil over. sigh


machined a few things and got my new trigger wheel mounted




next weekend hopefully have the cage cut out of it and mod the valve covers for the coil on plug conversion.

did more things this weekend.

got the wind shield pulled and started cutting out the cage and pulling more parts off the truck which shall not return like the exhaust, battery box, etc.




goodbye old jungle gym


cut the old cab mounts out and made my own which will serve dual purpose as the base plates for the new cage.


front cab mount


rear cab mount


front (bodyside) cab mount/base plate


rear (bodyside) cab mount/base plate


the long hardware is just temporary for that.

I've been gone from this thread and forum for a long time. Glad to see that this thing is still a purple beast. I love the sound of that 1UZ at full tilt. Your skills have only grown with time.

got about halfway done with the cage this weekend.

main hood structure




perfect fit


landed on the base plates on the money


decided to do a halo style cage. and luckily for me i was able to tack it in the truck and pull it out through the windshield so i could finish weld it on my work bench. made life so much easier.


tacked it back in the truck and installed my seat and so far the fit and head clearance is spot on!

more next weekend.
