- *ATTENTION* The measurement for the width of frame tubes is incorrect! I forgot to add the 1/4" on each side for the bushings, so add 1/2" to that width for the shackle tubes!!!!
Mounting the front hangers for the leaf springs!!
Sas kit here: rebrand.ly/trlgr
Build list with parts and tools can be seen here: docs.google.co...
This video is the holy grail of how to properly cut/weld the rear tubes in the frame, you sir are a gentleman and a scholar, thank you. In the process of doing mine and this has been a huge help.
Awesome I’m glad I can help!!!!
Great job there.... I love the Tubing idea to get those in line!!
This is the best video I’ve seen on this modification so far. 👍🏻
bjimbosld thank you!! I hope it helps out!
This has been a great research tool for my coming Isuzu Rodeo SAS; I need to take some measurements but it seems rather plausible that the same sas kit you are using would work for me also. great tip with the metal conduit to align the shackle tubes!
I like this in depth video, relieves some of my anxiety about my SAS on my 93 4Runner. I was gonna do my engine swap first (1UZ-FE) just to get it running, but since my rig is completely gutted right now (doing an R150f swap as well), looks like this will move to the top of the list. Great job on the rig.
Thank you
nice man! im no stranger to solid axle swapping these trucks. definitely the most in-depth video ive seen on how to do this. for mine, i bought the trail-gear jigs and just drilled them out. i didnt check for true-ness between them or anything haha! luckily, it didnt crab or anything, so they must have been close enough. im in the process of building a mazda b series up. using a toyota frame, toyota solid axle, and im stuffing a vw engine into it as well.
cheers bud! i subscribed.
analog56x good deal!! Sounds like a sweet build!!
@@austinniemela its definitely coming together. I took a roughly 4 year break from youtube, so im kicking it off again with the mazda build. Gunna start watching your videos to get caught up on your build haha. Ive been wanting to stuff a vw engine into a minitruck for years, and im finally doing it!
Cheers bud!
analog56x awesome I’ll check out your build!!
This video just saved my ass. The trail gear instructions are confusing when it comes to those shackle tubes being 1/4" out
Yes they are very confusing!
Great vid help me a lot thanks
Luke Hoe thank you! I’m glad it helped you out!
Thanks for sharing your video very helpful
Did you weld on any frame reinforcement plates one the front of the frame rails? I'm getting ready to due my SAS and trying to decide how necessary or if a good idea to.
Hallo bro..the leaf spring front hanger where you find it,you built it or you buy it?
Did u have any handling issue? And wat driveshaft u used?
What leaf spring you use in the front?
Cracking video, unfortunately we can't get the front spring brace in the UK would you by any chance have the measurements so I could get one fabricated?
Hey bud about to weld that front support in
So you did end up flipping it backwards so the 1 1/8” is to the back? And flush with the frame?
How’d it all turn out?
Did u used the stock steering pitman arm on the box . Im also doing a tdi swap on my Toyota 4runner
Nice info
Should I use the conduit to Mark the second hole
What did you do for a front driveline. I just finished my 3" ifs eliminator kit. And the one quote I had for a custom driveline was 1400 bucks.
Why u did not measure the back and set the front
So 1/2” out with bushing for the frame tube?
it really depends on your tube location. Just measure to keep the centerline the same as your front hanger width!
Kiero ver el sistema de direccion
Good idea on the tube through the shackle tubes, I tried it and realized it doesn't work with the transmission installed. The next SAS im doing will not have a trans in it so ill try it out then.
Nice fabrication work. subscribed to see how this thing goes together. I've got an old tired tdi beetle in the driveway and i'm trying to think of ideas on what to do with it.
Thank you! Its a fun project. Stay tuned i have tons of more videos coming!!
Just out of curiosity, what springs did you use? And what was your total suspension lift?
4" trailgear sas in the front and F150 leafs in the rear
What's the entire length of the front leaf spring?
I wanna do the conversion but sas dont have any information about the spring length, any help please
strange, all modern cars prefer ifs . why you go to leaf spring. i wish i could covert me jeep cj6 to ifs..
What size is the holesaw?
I cant remember now! measure the OD of the frame tubes!
what size hole saw?
T-rex Susulin oh I can’t remember now! Measure the outside diameter of your tubes and that should be the right size
doing a chevy implant and th 350 trans into my 91 as we speak yes trail gear instructions suck donkey balls im gonna call the big wig and really let him have it for the shit instructions they send with their kits
For real!! Just make sure you measure and measure again!! Also that measurement in the video is incorrect! I forgot to add the 1/4" on each side for the bushings, so add 1/2" to that width for the shackle tubes!!!!
When I cut one hole I'm going to but a piece of plastic pipe to align up my second hole and ohh yes I'll be measuring everything 2 or 3 times maybe even 4 or 5 times not something you want to do half ass
Where did you buy the beam axle?
John Ubert the truss is from trail gear
@@austinniemela , thank you so much. Do you think it can fit 2005 - 2010 toyota Hilux.
John Ubert I do not know about that!
@@austinniemela , I will try to ring them up. I do not want to lift the car too much but I' d like to get the same level between the front and the rear of the car. Thank you so much.
What I don’t understand is why not just weld a hanger bracket just under that location. Save time and get the same results. This is a ridiculous way to lift your truck. Not blaming you but the company. I would never go through all that just for a lift.
How much do you charge for that job and what state are you in? Can you give me the phone number for a quote?
You were doing great till you said grinded
