I’d look in to running new brake lines. Niccop is pretty forgiving and bendable and you have all the lines off to pattern with. I think a 30 foot roll is pretty cheap like under $50 the flaring tool isn’t super expensive and will last forever. Niccop is pretty corrosion resistant too. Idk if you get roads salted where you live but they will stay looking nice.
I love it. but I too wonder about the hard lines for the brakes. Maybe its impossible to find new lines, and your skill set can determine if they are still up to snuff to perform correctly. this looks amazing!!!!
Loving your work Austin your attention to detail is next level my friend, it’s like therapy watching after a long hard day at work. About your fuel pump choice, DCOE’s need 3.5psi to run properly so can use a regulator to set the pressure and an in-tank pump runs much quieter than a frame mounted one and low pressure in-tank pumps are available.
Man, I love your vids! The rebuilds and restores and upgrade conversions that you do are amazing! You have taught me SO much for my own DLX jobs. I would kill for your shop setup, wow really awesome, my garage is 22x22 so it’s kinda small. Thanks for the amazing vids!!
We are tired, Austin. We have to wait two weeks to watch a 12-minute video. This is a little bit. We are very excited about your creativity in these wonderful works. Please hurry up to shoot a new video, brother.👍👍👍
Where is the green truck ? Haven’t seen it in awhile ? Didn’t you have it up for sale? Also love the hilux build so far. Very clean and simple. I think your right about the 18in wheels. I think a 16 with a little strong tire would look good for begin lowered but what do I know lol I drive a super clean 2005 Tacoma. Toyota guy for life! Have had many. Great channel man!
That motorcycle style strainer you put in the tank will get easily clogged. Before you drop the bed back on put a proper fuel tank sock style strainer on there.
I always enjoy watching and looking forward to your videos, I was just wondering, you said on your previous videos that you are going to leave the body as is, with all the the work that you've done with the drive train, are you still going to leave the body as is, or you're going to build it like the other Tacomas?
I'd bend that rear brake line 90 degrees and mount it facing the left side of the truck on the crossmember behind the tank. It's ruins the look of the coil overs from under the rear.
Chassis is looking great Austin, awesome work as always! Are you planning on respraying the underside of the cab and bed before they both go back on the chassis?
l'm a bit late but would like to ask ...l have a toyota landcruiser colarado which l want to change its chasis is it okay if l use a toyota surf chasis ?
You just lost me at the dodgy way you secured the fuel pick up - after seeing the rest of the work that went into the chassis this was really disappointing

Thanks! Yeah either way would be fine! Im not worried about the noise!
I love your shop setup my 76 the gas tank had rust holes on the top I had to weld up.
i literaly just followed this series and after watching last video got excited for next ep and here it goes, so exciting
Coming along nicely! I'm getting more and more excited to see it finished and it's not even mine!
Like before I even watch bc I know they’re all 🔥🔥🔥
Thanks man! 👍👍
Facts💯
Glad I woke up in the wee hours of the morning on my side of the world to watch this .. this is really really good!!!
Looking great. What’s the color code on red Toyota truck?
Coming along really good! Looks amazing!!!!! 🔥🔥🔥

The suspension work was excellent. You are an ingenious friend.👍👍👍👍
Thank you!!
I think 15s in the front and 16s in the rear for wheels. Did you weld the dif? Great job as usual, keep it coming.

Love the detail, shame it's covered by the bed and cab.

Thanks! Nope the green tacoma is not for sale! I sold the green raptor lined truck a while back!
build is looking great Austin.
Thank you!
just found you on tik tok and wanted to come check out the channel, I'll be looking forward to seeing the hilux build
What size wheels/ tires are on there? I didn’t catch it.
glad to see you put the heim in there. you would have eventually found the nut loose if you had kept the poly bushing joint.
Excellent build, what are you using to clean parts to be painted.
That is a heated degreaser!
Loving all the work that you do, but you should get new brake lines.
Chassis looks evil! 😎
Schaweet job as always Austin 👍
Text saying what you’re using to clean would be cool. Love all the yota vids.
Мужик, нас с тобой разделяют тысячи километров и языковой барьер но мне очень нравится что ты делаешь. Это круто.
As usual, the build is looking great Austin.
Thanks!!
can u make a frame from scratch? with new chasis number ?
Great video,your getting there,keep it up and carry on 👍👍👍😎😎😎
I never get bored watching your videos. Great job Austin!
Thanks man!
Maaan looks so good makes me wanna do mine just for fun
You are wrong Austin. Of course this video was super exciting. Here I "Smashed that thumbs up" 👍 🤣
Two words Austin, Dustless Blasting 😁👍🏼
i was like...yo this car is old why and how the electric pump 😂
Видно что ты стараешься!!!
Молодец!

Looking forward to upcoming videos. Id like to change out my rear drum for disc.

Hello great job! Where did you get your black hand tools? Thank you
Chassis is looking great Austin, awesome work as always! Are you planning on respraying the underside of the cab and bed before they both go back on the chassis?
Thanks! That is undecided at the moment!
Nice work dude.
Thank you! Cheers!
Did you not use epoxy primer? Is that stuff good for direct to metal?
Yes I did epoxy! Its the best for direct to metal!
Love the content when you gonna collab with Devin.
Saya menggu update hilux anda. Saya sangat menikmati langkah demi langkah restorasi hilux anda
أنت محترف ومبدع
عمل رائع
Man invest in a plating kit. Sends my OCD through the roof seeing scabbing old nuts and bolts put back on fresh work
Well done, buddy! Thanks for sharing.
good job mate
Steel wool the brake lines, they will look stainless!
Looking awesome always ready for the next video!!
👍🏽🇺🇸👍🏽 way to go the extra mile

l'm a bit late but would like to ask ...l have a toyota landcruiser colarado which l want to change its chasis is it okay if l use a toyota surf chasis ?
Best of the Best proyect bless wait for 🤜🏾🤛🏻💪🏾✍🏽☝🏾🌏🇵🇷🙏🏾👌🏾🔥🔥
Looking good! What are you going to do for your fuel gage now? I know you must have something in mind. lol
Fuel gauge should still work!
Ok ok
Maybe I’m ignorant that being said how does that rear suspension work😳
Cleaning and prepping is so time consuming. Painting is quick I know all about it.
Brake lines would have been good in the control arm color...pop out from the chassis and "break up" the black
Love this man
That Tie wire is the cheapest thing on this build.
Do u do this type of work to other trucks
Salut Austin
L'ensemble commence à avoir de la gueule, je languis la prochaine vidéo.
Merci de nous faire partager ton expérience.
BTW thanks for the response to my question,,,,,, NOT,,,, but I figured it out anyways,,,,
Looking good
Gretae job cong.
Rack and pinion brother, you dont want that archaic steering box nonsense.
🔥🔥🔥👍🏻
Ёёёёёёёпта!!!!!

You just lost me at the dodgy way you secured the fuel pick up - after seeing the rest of the work that went into the chassis this was really disappointing
How’s that dodgy?
Hello Austin, are you related to Devin?
Yes we are brothers!
Awsome
Братан!!!
Зачем ты моешь если есть пескоструй?????
Доброго здоров'я привіт з Одеси Україна.
