The 3 link and 40's look very familiar. It's like I've seen it somewhere before, Lol. But now I'm going backwards. Cutting it all off and going back to radius arms, unassisted steering and some smaller tires. Strong work though.

Sorry for showing up 2 years later... thanks for posting this. Good video with helpful camera angles. What diameter are your lower CA links made from? Also, which enduro joints did you go with? Have you had any issues bending a link?

[@nickgustafson9590]

Hey my links are 2" od 1/4" wall dom. I have not had any issues yet with bending the links. I have switch to metal cloak Duro Flex joints. I like them a lot and have had zero issues for the past 2-3 years. Very easy to replace the bushing if needed and they don't make any noise while driving.

Great content bro! Inspired to start on my sliders and get to building something! What size tires on this 80 and do you by chance have a build page/sheet anywhere?

[@nickgustafson9590]

Get to work on it! These are 40" mickeythompson tires. I dont really have any build threads. The closest would my my Instagram page.

[@patrickwright3595]

Hey mate, did you keep any of the dimensions of all the mounts, lengths, etc etc looking at doing mine

[@kh1991]

Great work. Can you elaborate more on your brakes... certainly don’t look like the ones on my 91 😂

[@nickgustafson9590]

they are 5th gen 4runner caliper and rotors.

@@nickgustafson9590 thanks. what did you need to fab up to make them work?

[@AngryJesus]

@@nickgustafson9590 can you do a video explaining the conversion?

[@nikolaisaint9137]

Have you done anything to your front DS to prevent binding?

[@kyleo9322]

How does the 3 link handle on the highway? Did you ever run the 3 link before you got the 40s?

[@nickgustafson9590]

this is my daily driver. The 3link handles great. I have only had the 40s with this set up.

[@roselguzman4844]

What lift are you running?

[@kalindanley2843]

No Hydro assist? Damn!

[@nickgustafson9590]

Not at that time. I’m installing it now but not making a video. You can follow my Instagram I post on there.

[@BraaapHooligan]
