I moved things around to make all things level and the angles right. The Empire angle finder is perfect for my purposes. Yeah there are more accurate tools out there... I saw them at the SEMA Show and I was drooling! But the old fashioned tools work great for things other then aerospace engineering like this.



And here we are with one of the strongest Tacoma front ends in existence. I could have used tubing but I don't want to start cutting and bending it in my garage. The mounting possibilities on these boxed pieces are a lot more abundant as well. This way won't have to weld tabs with gussets on them or have to cut the tubing off and start over when it's time to cage the front end/ engine.
