Thanks guys!

I will take that drawing class ASAP.

UPDATE

It may not seem like I did much since last time, but it took me about an hour to tack these together. I'm sure more experienced folks wouldn't have taken nearly as long, but I took a ton of measurements and did a lot of creative "fixturing" using things laying around the garage to get all my angles right. I also did a little grinding here and there to get better fits on my notches. So although it doesn't look much different from where I left off yesterday, all this lower half needs now is finish welding. Here it is loosely attached to the truck (using bailing wire)

Do you think there will be enough room for a winch? I left about 8" in front of the radiator to work with.

Here is one area I would do differently a second time around. I am not happy with how much space there is between the marker light and the bend at the corner. If I moved the bend apex toward the rear of the truck this area would look much better.

It doesn't look too bad from this angle.

Here's what it will do for my approach angle. What do you think? Liveable?

My next step will be making the plate for the front of the crossmember (that should be pretty quick/easy) then I will get started on the upper assembly.

WHY WAS THIS REMOVED FROM THE EARLY TOYOTA TRUCKS FORUM??? An '86 doesn't qualify as early? <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/scared.gif" alt="" />
