I can't remember the date range but it was from the 80's or early 90's.
If you use the main leaf from those trucks, you can get it from a junkyard or maybe even a replacement main leaf off of one of the off-road websites. And then find one of those old SUV style Jeeps. I think they're XJ or...
It was an 87 e250 Econoline. The beans are not equal length like the f100 beams. But they have bigger brakes and bearings. It had the 9in in the rear also. Widest production 9in

Fast forward over the years... upgrading to a three-link, and a V8, and several changes in the front and rear cage design, hydro bumps and coilovers and bypass on each corner. A bunch of off-road miles, helping the homies build trucks, and probably a million 4Loko
Shut her down on her own feet and took her around the block. Then took the kid with me, she was not impressed. Then a couple days later I caught on fire cuz one of my reservoir hoses a cracked and sprayed the oil directly onto the exhaust
