nice truck old blue, looks bad ass! how do those tires work for ya? we had a set on our full size blazer and they didnt work so well


ya, the axle was being set up for a 4 link crawler when i bought it, it was striped clean except for the shock mounts and it had upper and lower link mounts that i had to cut off. i also had to weld on new perches.

sick truck beaniam thanks for posting

thanks matt, personally iv put way too much money into it and plan on putting way too much more but i like what iv come up with. are you thinking about building a truck or runner? i like runners but when you lift them there too top heavy for me.

oh that makes sense kinzer. The rack is one of those over the spare tire racks off a buddy's Jeep TJ that I made a couple brackets to weld to the roof. It ended up being the right size to cover the roof and hold my tow straps instead of taking up room in the tool box.

Im thinking of swappin too. I DD the crap out of my truck and im a little worried about the ride quality. I have given hell to the IFS tho. it seems to hold together fine for the type of logging road wheeling i do.

People want way to much money for their toy axles anyways!

just start collecting parts and eventually you will have enough!

thats what im doing, just get parts as i go. with something like that id better take longer to get everything and get it right the first time.

i dont know how long its going to be before i can so the debate now is how much do i put into my ifs

The IFS has handled alot of crap but im beginning to wonder if my wheel is about to fall off!
