Got my rear brake line ran, got the fuel lines run, radius arms and trans crossmember finished for now (i'm sure i'll change it again later)

the Steering is set-up,

i still need a gas tank, front carrier (3.90+) axle shafts, need to shorten the frt driveshaft, and get my wheel adapters for the rear and a lot of other loose ends to tie/buy up

trying to have it ready for the pig gig, but i forecast runing out of money before then and won't have it finished, but damn it i'm trying, and i hope to have the body back on this saturday

If all you need is a front carrier, yukon and precision both offer thick ring gear sets for putting low gears on tall gear carriers.

i haven't been able to find any "thick sets" for Reverse gears (front), and seems most places i find with thick and std gear sets the price difference between the std and thick is enough to buy a open carrier

Very cool! :thumb: I had dreams of doing what you are doing. Bronco II w/302, fullsize D44 and 9" and 38's. then sold the Bronco and used the other stuff for another project, then sold that... :miff: I like to think I am better off now, but very cool.

impressive!

whats up with the drivers side coil?

keep it up man, good work

 

[CheapThrillB2]

its bowed from abuse and the coil mount on axle is a little off..........i'm redoing the coil mounts a little different (not happy with what i did and going to do it different)

 

[FQXehhhh]

is this thing going to jump as well as the exploder?

 

[CheapThrillB2]

nope, atleast not intentionally, with this truck will come a new style of wheeling...........Explorer was balls to the walls, drive it like you stole it, no regard for damage and carnage............



This B2 will be more skill involved and patience etc...style of driving
