What an impressive difference to the IFS, way better performance than the drop bracket kit it replaced. The added width makes it feel like a slot car and it doesn't have the sway bar on.

Don't have the 35s on yet, lots of trimming to do first.
Looks good, though in the last pic, it seems your runner needs a front locker!

Nah. The wider the fenders, the more they hit stuff on the trail.

Lockers are in, front and back, just need to wire in the compressor.

3-3/8" wider. Just enough that T-100 shafts will bolt right in.

Speaking of shafts, I've got some custom cromo CV assemblies being made, we should end up right around the strength of the Longfield live axle birfs! We'll see in about 4-5 weeks!

'Course that means we move the weak point into the 7.5, but I've got a 8" front housing waiting to get shortened up...
