also might go with this as the hood fender and side colors https://www.youtube.com/shorts/pYOp3P9K6Yk

its been a bit, cleaning up around the garage and wondered what this part is for

 

[Gtstorey]

Solid rear transmission mount, but I'm not sure which transmission since I made my own.

 

[Chris_WNC]

I think that's the trans mount that ends up under the muffler.

 

[Cnixon160]

Only thing I recall having that bolt pattern is the rear trans mount to the subframe

Not the F23 trans.

And Not the F35 Trans either

My trans is an auto from a base model 2010 I guess I take that part that rubs on the muffler off and slip this one in it's place?

Yes

Ordered tires and wheels, 245/40/17 toyo proxes r888r and 17X8 enkei performance edr9. r888r's @ 236 each and edr9's @ 159 each. Total cost 1,508.

I sent DF an email today stating that I am ready for stage 2. Hope to get an invoice by tomorrow.

 

[Traé]

Ive been waiting a few weeks for an invoice. Not complaining by any means just thought I’d share.

I ended up calling and I am on the invoice list. I’m sure they’re busy so I understand.

Wow, that is a cool scan! Full color and separate seats and subframe.

 

[jirwin]

What did you use for the scan?

 

[Fenix Nexen]

What did you use for the scan?

cellphone camera and an app called polycam

 

[Fenix Nexen]

Received the invoice for stage 2 the other day and paid for it. Question, I ordered the redrilled bearing hubs in 5x114.3 as part of stage 2, will the kit come with front and rear brake rotors drilled to match that?

 

[Ross]

Yes, DF has those, and they did supply the right parts for me.

 

[Fenix Nexen]

Received tracking for shipping yesterday, half of stage 2 is being sent out and should arrive tuesday. Sent out the subframe, subframe mount, control arms, bcm backing plate for paint. Installed steering rack limiters today. Will probably try to request off tuesday and wednesday. The donor shell still needs hauled off, will probably grab the parking brake off it just in case. I dont plan on parking on hills and an e-brake sounds better anyway but never know.

 

[Desert Sasqwatch]

If you don't use the parking brake, you can pay it forward to someone else in need.

Install a parking brake. You can't imagine how much you might use one until you don't have one! Also some state regs require it.
