Finally got Davin's D44 hung in the Tacoma. We decided against frenching the shackle mounts inside the frame rails. Instead we used ruff stuff's frame outriggers and wayback shackle hangers. I built some shackles that are 4" eye to eye. With the bottom and third from the bottom leaves removed from the rancho 4404 waggy springs, the shackle angle is perfect. Ride height should be around 6" over stock once the springs settle. Tomorrow I'll finish welding the front Sky mfg crossmember, the shackles, and outriggers. If there is time left over, on to building shock hoops.

Ted continued working on the wiring harness on Cory's 3.4L swap. We expect to have her running by the end of the week if all goes well.

Hopefully Chris will be back tomorrow and put a dent in the K5.
