ID:	1237038We're doing good---I just about finished up/assembling the 5th base now and everyone welcome Sarge to the group buy (by the way Sarge I've got an extra case of WD-40 around I can send you if they ran out in Baraboo---just saying...) he'll be the 6th unit. I think we'll build/assemble all the legs/cups/framemounts and have 6 bolt in subframes before I start notching/fitting the Toyota diff. I've got an event I leave for tomorrow and back on Tuesday and I'll get measurements off the jig just to confirm the spacing on the 4wd crossmember body mounts. The fwd units are easy/I have one here to use still...

        Ryan are you getting the BG/FWD spacing or the 4wd spacing on your mounting points?

            Awesome news and updates, this is one hell of a group buy weve got going on here. Pleasure to have you on board Sarge! Jim, Ryan will be looking to purchase his subframe with BG FWD spacing.

                Glad to see Jim making more of these. The one I have is a work of art.

                Is anyone planning on beefing up the attachment points on the chassis? They seem kinda weak to me. I'm planning on making an x brace that ties the mounting points to the strut towers.

                    Kaleo just jumped in as well---never in my life could I have imagined that I'd be building these again---much less half a dozen or so...I should have some pics tomorrow/Monday.

                          Hi
                          I run a BG GTR with a gt4 conversion.
                          I was planning changing my stock set up to adjustable suspension arms with rose joints. This goes one better with a whole new subframe. This Thread is now book marked,what do you think the price will be in the end?

                            The subframes are $1500---the arms I'm not sure of just yet---they'll be a custom swaybar option as well...

                                Are they metric such as mounting holes and pickup points? To use the original bolts etc and metric rose joints?
