Thanks for the compliments. It has been a long hard road building this thing and its almost done. I need to tighten motor mounts, fill transfer case and rear end with fluid, finish setting up the shifters, tighten nuts and bolts here and there, mount the rear winch, and install new 1410 driveshafts(should be in next week), put the exhaust manifolds back on and install new exhaust, and install new...

Awsome, but it looks like there's some MAJOR coil bow. Wedges in the future maybe?

Rigman replied 1 month, 3 weeks ago
Its not as bad as the pic makes it look but I may do something different in the future. It will be more like coilovers all around and a 4 link in the back.

Thought that would be little different from the norm. Great looking rig. Keep the pictures coming.

no, it doesn't. think along the axle, on the p-side the pinion is rotating up, on the d-side it is rotating down. when you put it on the drivers side, it has a neutral effect going forward and a jacking effect in reverse (your rear end will raise). with it on the passenger side it has a planting effect going forward and a neutral effect in reverse. both sides of the chassis lift without a bar because there is no restriction on the...

Very sweet. I'd like to eventually put my 12,000lbs winch in the back and get a 16,500lbs for the front. My winch was one of my best mods, but sometimes it's useless up front and could be better on the rear. Very nice mod dude!
