Hilux build up

G`day fella`s,
I used to drive a 86 4runner but panel damage and body twist has killed it,I`ve spent to much time and money on it and was never getting anywhere with it and its now not what i want so I`ve started a build up on a lux,Thought i`d put it in this forum
I picked one up today finally after waiting for weeks to find one I was originaly going to put a lux cab on the runner chassis but this will be easier

made some half doors while i was waiting to find a lux

this looks and sounds like a interesting build so whats the plans you have for it :?:

P.S i like the inbuilt stubbie holder

I new you would like the stubby holder
Plans are dualies,linked front and rear,tube rear with exco
just waiting for parts from the US and swapping parts from the runner so most of it should be ready and hopfully a quick build up

Will be watching this one sounds interesting. Love the doors they look great.

Sounds good so is it a 4 or 5 link you doing
:?:

The stubbie holders are a nice touch but I would have done them large enough to take the cooler as well that way it would keep them cooler :shock: longer & be a bit of a cushion on the rough tracks.

Sounds good

Don't worry out the stubby holder, Gareth doesn't drive rough tracks and he drinks them too quickly to get warm

Looks like this will be very interesting....
Am looking foward to see the progress! :)

I wanted to make the holders so they take a cooler but didn`t have the material they are a very tight fit and will not fall out,the bottoms shrunk when i welded them on

quick up date,got to change from deisel to petty and found some rust that needs to be done :x
and I`m running 4 link rear with 3 link panhard front
mostly stripped,any one after a 2.4 deisel cause this one is going cheap (has leaky injecter pump)

see they won`t fall out
and also spoke to an engineer and all sounds good except he wants me to draw a scetch of what i want and fax it :o , can hardly read and wright let alone draw :shock:

the half doors wouldnt be legal on the road would they
