Desolate has their own coil, 299 a pair tho.

Skyjacker softride is 560 LBS/IN Bds 4 inch spring is 455 LBS/IN Bronco graveyard is 445 LBS/IN Procomp 24413, extended cab 4 inch lift is 485 LBS/IN I emailed around and got these numbers earlier this year

I was waiting to see how you liked the front coils, they are supposed to be 560lbs/In is what Skyjacker told me.

Do you have any pics of your sliders from the bottom?

ORD makes a 1/4 plate you can bolt in to shift it forward up to 1 1/2 with out adding much lift. Or easy to build at home.

If you push the front axle forward at least an inch you can avoid cutting the rear of the front fender with 37's Are you planning on cross over steering and hydro assist? It makes a huge difference with these trucks. Same as swapping over to serpentine belts from the v belts. Gmt 400 stuff...

I read your thread on GFB the other day! It is really dead over there right now.

Are you going to throw a locker in the rear?

They will screw us in other ways, we still have the highest grocery tax in the country, I'm sure our car tag tax and property taxes will jump now.

That's a sick trooper! Yota axles?

Mine was originally a 4.9/m5od truck, I found a guy parting a 91 f150 and bought the front end, trans/tcase and x member. Everything bolted in drivetrain wise, I sourced a automatic trans rear drive shaft and trimmed a couple inches off to make it work.

I'm in Lucedale, on the MS/AL line. I like MS, much better than south Alabama.

So, I recently did a scsb 2wd to 4wd, and have a m50d, as best as I could find no one makes a factory replacement driveshaft. I ended up buying an auto trans driveshaft and cut a few inches off to make it fit. Where in Fl are yall at?

It's a standard small block bell housing. They are great engines, lots of low rpm torque. They just don't like to be revved up like a v8.

Might as well! I did the same thing in an old k5 on a trail in bfe alaska. Ditching the sway bar up front will help the ride a little bit, they bind when used with lift springs.
