what happened to this thread that makes" people avoid it like the plague?"It seems like a good idea.I would be interested as well.

Hello all. First This is my first day in this forum. I am on several others and banned from a couple more....

anyway, Im here because I was sent the link by a guy thats trying to do a conversion. I sent him an email after seeing his post on SSM about anyone making tube arms for the LUV that would use a different spindle. If I remember correctly he wanted to run a Toyota spindle.

Well, Im about to go to the local pick n pull tomorrow as I do most weekends to do some "wrecking yard research" as I call it. I usually buy at least one control arm or spindle and sometimes both. I will be looking into the types of arms these things have and Ill see what I can do to make these.

I currently make Toyota arms that use S-10 balljoints. Why? because the taper and hole sizes are the same and the S-10 balljoints in aftermarket form have much more travel. The upper especially.

I can make a set of tube arms that fit the LUV chassis and use pretty much whatever spindle you want. Id prefer a Toyota or S-10 spindle. All I need to get the ball rolling is ONE stock upper and ONE stock lower.

I dont have to cut them up or anything I just use them for measurement and dimensions purposes. So Ill be looking for these pieces tomorrow. If I cant fond any I will have to see if he or someone else will send one. I would need the set over a weekend. Thats about all the time I need to get the jig made.

The real question for me? Is there a market for these? Id have to be able to sell about 3 sets to break even on making a jig and all the research needed.

thanks and if theres some advertising rules that Im close to breaking please let me know. thanks!
