    Hey there! Great job on the work as always, but there's one thing I wanted to mention. I had a Toyota Surf with a 185 body style for a long time, and I can tell you that because of its negative form which resists aerodynamics, a lot of dirt and moisture gathers under the rear bumper, which absorbs the moisture and causes the metal to rust quickly. It's really important to make ventilation holes (maybe there's a way to make them look nice?) because it'll help to ventilate the space, and also significantly reduce the weight of the bumper.
    Best regards,
    Vadim from Vladivostok, Russia.

    Tacking in bracing and gussets really helps keep the warping to a minimum. I braced the hell out of my TDI engine mounts, and they dropped right into place and the bolts lined up perfectly. My oil pan on the other hand needed a bit of therapy to fit flat on the block.

    Maybe u would consider fabricating a roofrack (another video idea for yah 😉) with a swing arm for the spare tire, that swings up. The spare tire will make the swing arm heavy to swing up so u can use air struts to make swing easier.
    Lots of love for you and the content man ❤

    I did a front and rear bumper build for a '94. Did you support the bumper "wings" (the piece from the rear of the bumper that extends toward the tire)? Building these takes a long time, with a cut and fit.

      Pre load?

    • @SootyDiesel81
      @SootyDiesel81 ปีที่แล้ว

      Normally 9/10 times anything you weld shrinks or pulls so if you pre load it by spreading it a few millimeters with a porter power then brace it, it comes back to normal after braces are removed
