It's coming together really nice man! I am proud of you for haulin' ass on this project. If i didnt have to rebuild my engine again, then i would be putting that money towards a solid axle swap too! maybe next year though. And wow! your axle sits pretty far forward now! I cant wait to see how she does when we hit the squaw ridge trail run this month!

 

i hate you. haha. looking great man. wish i could get mine done.

 

thanks guys, and yea justin my wheelbase is about 119" now, give or take. its badass haha

 

NICE!!! I especially like how you didn't even wash it before you started the build. shows enthusiasm! lol. Mine literally went straight from the last trail ride to the garage before I started the project. You'll have to wash the truck for the glamour pics once its all done though

 

haha she looks better dirty cant wait to see yours done

thanks for the feedback guys i appreciate it.

 

Looks great man! Your buddy laid some niiiicccceee beads! Im still jealous. I dont think I have ever seen an axle that far forward lol Are you using relocating plates or perches? And from that first angle pic it looks like you have a fullsize axle under there!

And I should have money a week from today (Wednesday).

 

SHES ON HER OWN WEIGHT!!!





ass sag will be fixed when we do the rear



pretty good shackle angle







axle ended up pretty far forward

NIIICCEEE! Damn I want to do it now!! One day. Its looking good man....cant wait to see it when its on the trails all flexed to hell!! lol

So I'll have money wednesday...just so you know that im still buying it.

 

award for the fastest sas goes to h.b.yoter

(take that, dc )

 

I got a question....are you still running stock gears with those 35's? And how did they clear with the IFS lift?

 

Yeehawwwwwwwwwwww! Get out there, asap! Congratz, man!

 

thanks guys! and it could have been faster, but we took a couple days off

Rogue, sounds good. stock gears, but these 35s are worn so they only measure about 33.5". if you scroll back a few pages youll see how they looked on the ifs.

 

I'm really enjoying how after the sas you can refer to a 4" lift in the back end as ass sag. Keep up the pics, and grats on the progress so far.

 

haha i know, im surprised at how much lift i got from 3" springs

 

yeah I think its funny how they do that....whatever size springs you get the amount of lift is like double that lol

 

SHES DONE!!!! (mostly)



























ride height for now

 

Allright, man!!! That thing is sexy!!! Congratulations!!

You are gonna throw some paint on that, right? I would hate to see rust on that fab work.

 

thank you sir and yes, just went out, primered, painted, and clear coated it all

 

x2 on all sl said, and woooo hoooo!!!

 

It's refreshing to see someone actually do what they say they will do on the first page of their thread. Congrats man, you must be so excited!

Now get on those gears and lockers!
