Body Damage is Cool
I've got to do the napkin notes first.

Steering?
How to use the torsion bars or go coilovers?



Done:

Brakes:extended lines
lift:drop bracket
Driveshaft: spacers at the axles

Although it was a bit too high, I think that some parts could interchange between a smaller kit, like a 6" kit.

Have you thought about a GEN1 kit? (maybe the gen2 kit will bolt up to a gen1, Does anybody know?)

No BS would be a good start and..

I want a long travel IFS kit similar to the Total Kaos kit for early 4wd IFS Toyo Pickups. I want to go faster in the desert.

Perfect and thanks so far the tubular arms do look pretty all bullshit aside yes i have 9 other bracket kits cut i got a better deal that waysome trimming will be done. my ten is now mounted and almost ready just a couple things in rear to do went with 4 inch lift springs custom POL spring and an air set up just having fun now the six kit would be do-able any smaller wouldnt be cost effective. so would equal length upper and lower control arms be alright? let me know.... <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/baby.gif" alt="" />

If you could post detailed pics of your completed 10" project that would be cool. If you cant figure out how to post them send them to me or another member of the forum and we'll post for you.

I would finish the 10" and go BEAT on it for a month before you decide to sell it-for safety's sake. If it survives, build the other 9 and sell them <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Does anyone know if it would bolt up to a gen1? Are gen2 and 1 mounts the same?

What did you have planned for steering?

I'd definately forget the 10" mall crawler lift and go for a long travel desert style IFS like the Total Chaos. Dixon bros makes some wicked stuff too

http://www.dixonbrosracing.com/

I definately would stay away from equal length control arms though. Look arround at pretty much anything IFS, you won't find equal length control arms anywhere. You might want to do some research on the basics of suspension angles and how they change when the suspension cycles. Things like Caster, Camber, Toe, SAI, Scrub radius, etc. If you have no idea what any of those are, I'd stay away from designing suspensions until you figure it out.

Not sure if you could do it with Autocad, but mabey convincing Mitsubishi to bring the Montero/Pajero back to the states, in the 2-door form. For those of us who are 2-door/SWB lovers :-) I know, far fetched, but hey, anything is worth a shot <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />
