I got all of the rear brackets cut off and ground smooth. I also took a trip to pull a part and got some F150 springs for the rear.
I got my wheels the other day. I needed to get some motivation so I mounted one of the wheels. This is with the frame right around 24". The truck still has a 2" body lift also. It will be coming out later.
Now I'm just waiting on more parts so I can move forward. I can't wait to get this on the trails.

I got some parts today.
Anyone need gears installed in a 9.5 LC E-locked Diff. These are the washers needed to set BL and CBPL correctly. There are 23 and they are kind of pricey.
I also got my front housing in. Still trying to figure out how to do the right spring perch. I didn't think that far ahead of I would have moved the third over a couple inches.

I got in trouble with the GA tag people. :rolleyes: They sent me a letter saying my tag could not be printed because it had an offensive meaning on it.

I've been working on the rear suspension and I think I got it all dialed in. Tell me what you guys think about the tire placement. The body will be coming down 2" (body lift coming off) and these are pictures of the tire fully stuffed.
Here's a picture of the stance. This is with 4.5" BS wheels. I may run 1" spacers on the rear axle to better match the front 66.5" width.
My plan for the shackles it to go thought the frame. I had to cut the body mount a little. I'll brace it after everything is done.
Here's the front spring hanger.

I am thinking about switching to leaves but i don't want to lose too much Height. I want it to match the front unloaded so that when I hang my spare off the back it is sagged just a little.
