I want my FJ to go on a little bit of a diet lol be making the tail end a little more trim looking. I was curious to maybe cut the subframe down or maybe use another subframe from another bike. Anyone ever seen this done or have any pictures and how they did it?

TRoy shortened his 86 subframe.  Love the paint job as well!http://www.fjowners.com/index.php?topic=575.0

That looks sweet, to bad the guy isnt a active member. I would really like to know how they did that.
