Drew and I Will NOT be making brackets. They take up way too much time with the tools we have. We probably have 10-12 hours in building thos brackets. We worked our ***** off cutting, grinding, and welding all by hand. We are pleased with the saved money, but without a cnc machine and newer tools you cannot make money.

Yeah Drew and I made those to help him save some coin. Sure i could pump out some brackets, BUT I rather be wheeling my Toyota than always working on other peoples rides. Feel free to ask questions anytime though!

Truck looks killer. I might be a little late to post this, but you can run a doublecardan front shaft with the 243. You can fit a 1350 series joint with about 1/4" of clearance on the shift box. get a np208 yoke and drill about .400" of the splines out of the back or it will not tighten up on the output shaft of the t-case. that is what i did on my 97 it works fine no problems so far. It might be because my front 60 is out of a newer ford. with the wide pad tho.
