NorCal South Bay Fabricator: Milogen Fabrications

An update on the custom sequoia sliders milo finished recently



Sequoia cab mount chop

 

I need a Milo near me. I’m impressed!

 

has anyone had Milo do a CMC with SDHQ sliders already installed? Is it possible to do it correctly or do the sliders needed to be removed first?

 

I like these!

 

I think it would be best to leave them on to see how much clearance they will give him for his plate. Or he would charge labor for removal.

 

I want him to redo my CMC.

 

Perfect time to do it!
Are you doing cam tab gussets when you go LT?

 

I want to send my truck to him to do a bunch of stuff... @dcsleeper408 , you think he would do my spindle gussets if I ship them to him?

 

is that the wife mobile ?

 

Im sure that wouldn't be a problem. You would probably just need to take care of shipping.
I have a set off my 15'. If you can find someone with 16'+ around here might save ya a few bucks.

 

It's my boss' new project. Dirt bug bit hard so you are going to see this build a little more around here. I did his air to spring conversion, he is running icon 2.5 coilovers up front and more to come!

 

I have a set of new takeoffs inbound, don’t really care about shipping $, just want them done right.

 

thats gonna be nice. sequoia is a great platform.

 

It has a lot of limitations. Great for family hauler/weekend warrior for sure!

 

He will take care of ya! Shoot him an email when you are ready.

 

That's something I want to discuss. When Joon's truck was on rack we were looking at the cam tabs. Why do ya have to buy gussets instead of welding a little piece of flat stock behind/ backing up the tab?

 

That’s what I’m doing, could be wrong though, you know me.

 

sounds fun

 

I've seen a few ppl run a bead behind the oem tabs, to toughen it up. The Tacoma I detailed recently has done it and has never had issues. He manages to bend spindles and radiator supports, but that bead holds up for him.
I think purchasing the cam tab gussets from TC just makes it that much easier for the fabricator end.
Are you doing secondaries?

 

Also, after I looked @joonbug 's truck the other day, I think the cam tab gusset plates might give that area a little more strength. His was pretty folded and needs to be bent back to get the new plates to sit flush. His is actually starting to split away.

 

Me? yes they're part of the package.

 

If you weren't gonna weld em or haven't found someone to weld em in, it would be a good time to do it all in one shot with Milo.
Some places charge a pretty penny for just the cam tab gussets bc LCA's have to be removed. I think CALIFab was charging Ed $800, since he was doing LT they just charged him like 100 bc everything was coming off anyway.

 

Well, I was planning to install the LT kit and have you come over to help me with the axles.

 

Yeah for sure! It'll be fun . Speaking of I need to send @TRD15559 some boots once I find em. Sorry Soop! forgot to check for em when I was stuffing my face on Thanksgiving. I'll run through my old parts this weekend for ya!

 

@831Tun How about all the stuff that needs to be welded?
Secondaries/limit straps/ *possible* cam tab gussets or "safety bead"
Rear bed cage or LSK cantilever kit..?

 

I've got a really good grinder....LOL so I can do some of the easier welding. Don't think I'm going bed cage. LSK cantilever would be the most extreme I'd go with the rear. Maybe just SUA and shock relocate but I haven't done enough research yet.

 

You got it!! If anything practice on @joonbug truck, and by the time you do yours, you’ll be dropping some dimes!
