Hello. Yes I have all those hop-ups. The frame, shock mounts, shock shafts, and gear were made by a company called MONO TUNING. All these parts are significantly lighter than the stock peices. The frame alone is like 70 grams lighter than stock. The gear was part of a set (pinion & trans.) and I don't see the pinion pictured. They were made of hardened aluminium and are much lighter than the heavy stock brass gears. The shock shafts are aluminium and replace the heavy stainless peices.

These are pictures of my F-350 with all of those parts installed.

These parts work well and bolt right on. I've never had an issue with them in the almost 3years that I've run them

hi nice ford ;-) did the alloy shock part help with articulation in anyway?

Thank you. Your TOYOTA is very nice as well.
No, the shafts are just lighter weight than the originals. You can increase articulation though, by removing the internal springs from your shocks.

hi yes i have tried that but i prefer to keep them:)

i have loads of articulation on the back but the front isnt as good but with the mods i have done its much batter than stock.
i think i get articulation almost as good as the junfac 4 link conversion mine really does perform well:D

I thought that's what kind of bumper that was. Looks great painted to match the truck.

Very nice looking green Hilux, nicely detailed. I would think the alloy frame is a bit like sticking a lightweight turret on a tank, its still a tank lol! but it is nice looking and I guess it won't rust :D

Have to agree with Wyo. Love the green. Looks like this rig is prepared for just about anything.:)
