Yeah 2wd and 4x4 ranger frame and crossmembers are different. Fullsize they're the same beam pivots and everything for 2wd and 4x4. Clearance is only a grinder/swazall away easy when it's caged and just want it to all fit

I have a junkyard with like 25 ttb trucks if you need photos or measurements I am happy to help

Stock pivots are roughly 7" offset center to center or 9" from front mount to rear of back mount ala crossmember inside width.

Pivots 13" apart. Pivots level. With eachother. Offset enough to clear pass inner axle diff joint.

Looks like fun. Growing up in Santa Maria I always knew about carrizo plain but never been. I knew a guy who did FFA Welding competitions that went to Atascadero High School that lived out that way and his family did guided Elk hunts. Did you see any Elk or big game?

Garage space. Man I started out in the side yard and driveway of my parents house. Got a nice 2400 sq ft shop now, nothing compared to my old 4000 sq ft AC shop I built in Phoenix.

Eversen prob wouod sell you the king pin and bushings so you can build your stuff off them.

Looks good. That lower link mount is high on the frame. I usually run the at the bottom of frame of slightly below since I like a lot of spread on front link mounts usually 10 up and 10 back.

And I doubt there's a magical part # people use since I don't know anyone really besides MMW that does the big king pin beams.

Pretty sure semi trucks dont use yr make model shit. Its like a freightliner uses brand X axle assembly. Just like they do for Cat engines transmissions etc. No idea where you get them but id call some semi truck repair/alignment shops im sure they got email.

They're a stock semi truck kingpin.

Looks awesome. The Right hand beam pivot looks like it would want to bend up/back to the motor. Are you worried about this and gonna ad a tube to keep it from moving?
