If you still need help with the tube front clip I might be able to help.

I'm sure he dose great work, I just figure the only way I'm going to learn is doing it myself. So I'll be doing it myself even if it looks like crap.:busted:

If I did get the tube work done by someone, it would be done by the guy that did my cage.

I'm also going up to day to pick up my box and, the hydro assist kit from RL.

 

[Kris K]

SO I got my box back from RL and, also picked up there assist kit. Dose any one have picks of there install of this kit on a toyota axle with highsteer????

 

[toys4rocks]

Does there kit look any thing like trail Gear's? If so I have a couple of installed pics.

With only seeing photo's online, they do...

 

[Kris K]

From the sounds of things there identical or very similier.

I found some pic's online the other day, Just trying to figure out with the tabs RL gave me how much of a angle the ram will be on. From what I've seen it looks like a little angle isn't bad.

But any pic's would be good if you have some.

Here are a couple crappy pics, you don't live far, you are welcome to swing over and take a quick look. The truck is going to be up AF tomorrow also.

kris you start on this yet??

 

[Kris K]

Yep saturday I got the tabs welded(more like bugger welded) on ran out of light to hook the lines up and, fill the system. Hopfully in the next week or two I'll make it back down (Nephi) to hook everything up.

 

[Kris K]

Made it back down to my parents house to finish up the hydro on my Samurai. I got all the lines hooked up and, ran out of the way of getting damaged. Then stupid me I put fluid in then started it up. . and, ran it from side to side on jack stands. after I did that for a while I realized I didn't run it with the engine off. SO now I have a crap load of air in the system. I had to get back for scouts so I didn't get it all worked out. But I did put it on the ground and, it turned pretty easy but, i'm sure it will get a lot easier once all the airs out. Also I just need to adjust the rod ends since it will turn to lock when turning left but I'm about 1/2" short of the stops when turning right. So I just have some miner tweeks to work out and, it should be fine.

I hope

 

[camcruiser13]

get some pics up so we can see

 

[Kris K]

Will see I still need to get the welds that look like a wod of gum ground off then reweld them. (Note to self get used to a new welding rod before using it.)

I went down last night for a couple hours. I adjusted the ram end to try and get it to turn even both ways. Found out my pitman arm was off two splines. Tried getting all the air out by cracking open the lines as my Dad turned the wheel, it sure was full of air. I had a flat tire on the one side so I wasn't able to take it for a ride but sitting in the drive way it will turn stop to stop with one finger. Before I had to REALLY work at it.

I'm hoping to be able to go down to Nephi on the 14th of July and, run around some local trails then maybe head to Mona pole to see if all the snow's gone.

I'm pretty impressed, even with the flat tire it turned that easy. With the tire's aired up to normal PSI (35lbs) i couldn't hardly turn the wheels sitting in the drive way. I can't wait to try it out.
