Details to follow for the end of the day but I'll start by saying this it involves a plasma cutter, cut off wheel, maybe a knife and a welder as well as my Taco. Now off to the shop!

I cut them but didn't get any pics. The only thing that might rub now is the actual fold under the plastic but if it does it will get some lovin from the big hammer.

Won't be getting new rubber for a while have to save the penny's haha. The bald all terrains are doing okay on the ice roads with the 4x4 on and the locker on as well. Without the locker it gets kinda squirly but with it on I can control slide to steer haha.
That truck looks good. I'm not building the Tacoma much anymore its pissed me off to much so focusing more on the cruisers.

I'm so glad I went with Total Chaos Spindle gussets. I would hate to have to pull the uni-ball bolt out of that. I guess that's the price you have to pay if you want to keep your sway bar. :-o

There is lots of room on the back side to get into and get the upper control arm bolt. There are bolts out there a lot worse than this. Actually I don't even think its remotely difficult to remove the bolt.

I wouldn't say there it lots of room as I have the same truck and know how tight it is in there to get the right torque settings on the bolt, never mind having to go from the inside around a gusset and get it. From that angle it looks tough enough.
Hats off for doing spindle gussets though :)
