that is some serious engineering going on there!! Great job Austin!
I can't express how epic this is for a static drop. It should ride really nice too ! You might even still be able to haul light loads with it.
Did you check for binding in roll? You may wish to consider that, when you put it together, to replace the rear bush of the top arm at the diff housing, with a more easily flexible heim joint. This is because, upon direction change, as the vehicle rolls side to side, even a little, is when the top arm will bind, so it'll try to pick-up/unload the inside rear wheel.
You are correct , it will not work like this
Heim joints or it will bind raise one wheel you'll see, it will bend or break stuff or just shagg out bushes quickly. But other than that looks good.
I wish I could just come help this dude for free an just gain the knowledge… Austin is a beast !!!!!
Great video, I'm in awe of your skill and the things you do with the tools you got.
I'm impressed by how you coped that tube with your drill press and hole saw 👍 can't wait to see the finished build
Probably one of the best presentations on RUclips.
Considering that you have done it all by yourself quite impressive..no matter what..
I must admit was doubting you at first...but you surpassed that..
Good quality welding, your brackets are great and hand made..
We see so many using CNC to cut...seems to take the fun and hard work away.
One appreciates it more using your method.
I wish to do the same at some point.
The build will be from scratch..jeep XJ rear axle, as you show coil overs four link, but just rear wheel drive.
2.5 diesel engine and a twin leading arms up front probably made up hubs too .
Just a 2 seater.
Similar to look of an old Bugatti car fish type tail.. That era.
But mine will be a soft 60% off roader..and 40%tarmac.
Great build keep it up..
Simon a Brit in Spain .
This guy is an artist 👩🎨 keep up the good work.
Thanks man!
Looks great. If you're still concerned about the strength of your front crossmember you could always run a brace from the middle one you cut along side the gas tank to tie it all together.
Wow. Awesome work. Great content. Love your Toyota builds. Gets me enthused about mine 👍
Can't wait to see it when it done man. Get the truck wrap man. It will look sick and do sub box built for it too
You're a wizard, bro! I can't wait to see the next episode.
Congrats for the amazing job and thanks for teaching us how to do.
Greetings from a brazilian in Chile.🇧🇷🇨🇱
Your videos are so enjoyable and you do such great work. I don’t even like these little Hilux trucks but it’s satisfying watching you do want you want with it!
Awesome job for sure. There is an incredible amount of engineering and fabrication that went into your build! Another amazing job you rocked it big time! 👏💪👍
If you plan on driving around a corner in the rain at 60 miles an hour sway bar would be best.
Man you are going off on that build. 👍

Looks great Austin.. loving this build mate 🤙
Brother God bless you I am impressed amazing drilling hole and pipes bend good work 🎉
How the hell do you not have million of subs?!? Love all your content man, I wish I wasn't on the other side of the States!
You just keep raising the bar. Incredible work again. Love watching your videos just to see what you come up with next. Keep up the great work.
I didn't think u would go low with this one but I knew there was a chance , I love it already man , fenomenal work once again , glad you're able to be a bit creative with this one and mix ashtetics with functionality or less functionality 😅 well will be way better on tarmac , I love it already , I think white wheels will be a cherry on top of the cake later on , meanwhile AVR it 👍
Busting out a little TIG work? Nice man. Excited to see how this build turns out.
Oh yeah got to make some strong welds! Haha thanks man!
Absolutely amazing fabrication skill brother..
Cheers from South Africa
Thanks man!!
so glad you're going the mini truck route. this is going to be awesome
Saw the Instagram pictures of ur welds looking really good,keep it up
Thanks 👍
You nailed it in your own way bt love the outcome bro Excellent work 👍
Thank you!!
I approve of this video. I do think we should take up a collection and buy you a drill press stand or some type of table to set it on.
The way you measured that one pipe 😂😂. Can’t wait to see the finished product. The build up is way to exhilarating. Amazing as always, keep up the good work. 💪🏽
👍👍 thanks man!!
You are an amazing fabricator! If I was rich I’d have you build a truck for me!!
Awesome work, If you were closer I have a seat project for my 16 Tacoma...
I've seen many channels of builders , but man what amazing skills we see here ... 💪💪💪 Cheers from France
Hey thanks man!
Great fab skills. The link setup turned out 👍. When are you going to get a little welding table for you opposed to those ol trusty saw horses aha.
Always a pleasure seeing you work good sir,I have a few project of my own, learned alot from watch you work now I effortlessly work on them, goodwill to you can't wait for your truck to be done,will look amazing
I like the direction you are taking this Austin👍. Pikes Peak or just out cruising and feeling the chassis and power set you back in you seat. Maybe some flare work and a custom air dam/splitter.
Thanks 👍
Same!! 🔥
I just got to find some flares that somewhat fit! And yea something other than the oem front bumper!! I need ideas!!!
As always and to be expected. Great job and looking forward now to the next step and post to watch the progress.
Such works apperaciet the people to rebuild the legends vehicals new again ,,, it,s nice work ...
Good job man. I am watching Your videos with big interest, and it is getting more interesting day by day.
I’m interested to know if your frame weight increases because of this custom build. Keep up the great work! Thanks for sharing
Keep in mind some leafsprings were removed, and those bitches aren't light. I would assume overall less than 10lb difference between em, 3 like being heavier.
Those axle brackets are bitchin! The half wishbone , as beefy as you built it, still looks wierd to me not having lateral support on the right side. I feel you should still use a panhard bar. Maybe a watts link.
Love your vids .. wish we had someone as thorough as you where I am
Good stuff. Keep after it Austin.
You and your brothers are pure geniuses.
That Hilux will ride better than a high end GT! awesome work as usual👍🏼
Thanks I hope so!!
Love that set up keep it up
Awesome work. I’m building an upper 3rd link and mounts on my 2000 4runner to replace the two upper links to eliminate binding and increase articulation. My upper mount will be similar to yours.
I knew you had been busy bro, last video you posted was 7 days ago. Awesome work, super impressed by your skills.
Damm! Work shop clean! Just like your Work! Awesome work!!
Your fab work is top notch.
YOU ARE GOOD MAN!!! Enjoy the videos'. Thanks and keep em comin.
I'm definitely stealing your suspension set up for my 87'!
Man that’s some engineering skills you have. Subscribed!
Thank you!
Very cool setup! I've never seen a 3link with that upper arm! Eliminates the need for a panhard!
I see you have a MIG and a TIG, how do you decide what machine you want to use for what job? Obviously larger jobs are easier with the MIG, but I noticed you welded the links with your TIG. Wondering if maybe that's hotter and that's what distorted the threads maybe?
Очень крутая работа👍👍👍
Not a fan of lowered trucks. But still very interested in watching what you do with it. Also I really gotta learn how to weld.
Yes! I saw that frame coming down on the axle and I was thinking to myself "lower, Lower LOWER!" HAHAHA. Looking good!
Haha it should be low! Hard to tell without a body on the frame!
@@austinniemela yeah it's definitely hard to get a feel without the body but I'm really excited to see it coming together!
Bro, with all that custom work...I hope you put some color to the tubing!! Looking sooo F'n good!! 🍻
Thanks man!
This truck is gonna be bad ass when done, I can't wait.
such a cool build. right on man
Very impressive AN!! Keep it up homez!!!
Thanks brother! I’m tryin!!
This is awesome 👏 Toyota needs to sponsor you
...and be a member of the "Toyota Racing Development"!
What's it like working backwards and upside down from your normal projects? lol I have 3 or 4 favorite channels yours being one of course. I watch Fab Rats and they are in Nevada. Everything they do revolves around four wheeling, rock crawling and offroad recovery along with Matt's Off Road Recovery. This is really different watching you do the suspension frame off. Looks so much easier! I've seen those guys weld, bend, ratchet strap broken vehicles in the middle of the desert in some really contorted ways. Pretty crazy and ballsy stuff in their neck of the woods! Looks Great so far! I'm waiting to see if you will keep the grunge! lol
You’ve done a beautiful job as always but I’m not sure about the upper link. I’m not sure how well it will handle the sideways forces on the axle. I think you should move the fuel tank and put in a standard 4 link, attached at the differential centre and chassis rails. Love watching you work though, great attention to detail.
Do some research on wishbone 3 link! It’s a pretty common setup
I highly recommend using a heim or some sort of joint that can misalign on the top of the axle. if your axle articulates, your nut will come undone. if you dont want to use a heim, synergy makes these awesome dual durometer bushings that flex very nicely, and don't need grease and done squeak.
Mad fab skills bro.
Fantastic job!!! 👌
Damn i am super jealous, i need to do this to my truck. Leaf springs cant handle the new power of the s/c. Super excited to see what you do to the front.
Made it look too easy as usual Austin! Great work mate!
Thanks!!
Very nice set up.
Beautiful work 🤩
Interesting design for the upper link. What was the reasoning behind not doing a panhard bar/watts link to center the axle instead of the upper link? Every design has a drawback, suppose roll articulation would be the drawback of that layout. A rod end with high-misalignment spacers would alleviate the lack of articulation, the only articulation of your design will be just bushing deflection which goes against the main benefit of a conventional 3link vs a 4 link (easier and more controlled articulation)
Man, I always enjoy watching you. I enjoy your methodical process mostly. I havent ever built a 3 link, but Im wondering if theres a provision for the axle to twist (think one wheel on a curb the other in a pot hole)? Shouldnt the upper link have a spherical joint to allow rotation, or is there enough movement in the system without? Thanks, and keep it up!
Thanks man! I did some testing since then and the bushings have a ton of flex! Check the next video in line if your curious!
3 link Suspension and lowered? Definitely different setup with no panhard bar. Sleeper street racer.
Austin maybe I missed something what about the side pivoting of the axel from the center of the diff ? hope I put it right.
Great work. It looks like the top mount on the diff is doing the work of a panhard rod is this right ?
wow, I love it, good job man
Fantastic work 🤘
we build swamp buggies in Florida using a crossmember to a single bar down to the diff that’s adjustable keeps it up for clearance you should build a ripsaw next $$$$
Great work man. What about a panhard rod? Whats going to stop the side movement of the axle in this 3 link suspension ? 👍
The wishbone upper link keeps the axle in place
Wishbone upper link would prevent side movement if mounted correctly . Nice work though
@@richardcabrera1176 is mine not mounted correctly?
Reminds me of the Derelicts built by ICON. Amazing welds.
Thank you!!
Ya quiero verlo armando!
Beautiful work!!
Thank you!
I just found this channel and I’m digging it. I’ll have to get caught up. How are those bushings holding up for you? I noticed you didn’t put Heim or Duro joints on it.
That looks like it's gonna be a smooth ride
I hope it rides good!!
If you search up Guam drags. You will see videos of them racing 22r mini trucks. As I have dreamed of owning a truck like these to have fun. Guam has a huge community of mini trucks.
Looks slick
great job! waiting to see more...
I may have missed it, but what spring rate did you go with on the QA1's?
Awesome job!
YOU the MAN bro! fabrication finest! 💯💪🙏👍
Thank you brother!!
👍🏽🇺🇸👍🏽 this is goin to be an awesome build
Best project yet. Can’t wait for the next video.
Check out Badlux pickup build, for front ends mods I believe he has some done
As a fabricator, I say you know what you're doing.
You've got vision man.
Awesome.. Bitchin' link setup!
Impressive!!
Amazing work! Now a LSD?
I’ve seen waaaay less strength on a 4wd link setup 😂🤘🏻 shouldn’t have any issues with that
Exactly! A proper wishbone 3 link is very strong!
Great job man
Fantastic Job
