mounting ifs box

Post by STUMPY »

i'm about to do a cross over steering on the 4runner and was wondering what the best way of doing it? instead of putting tubes inside the chassis rails can i have a bit of plate on the other which would stop the rails from crushing? and who steering arm do you recommend? feedback and photo's would be great.
cheers joel :)

You will need crush tubes for an engineer to pass it. they arent hard to fit, if you can weld good.

Use the proper high steer arms and rod set from snake racing.

is there any specific wall thickness and diameter of the tubes?
do you need drill a hole the same diameter as the tube then weld it in place, or drill a hole the same diameter as the bolt and let the bolt hold them in place?
