Awesome Project!!!!!!!


I like the way you guys do stuff

 

Looking Great Josh, like I said the other day when I was down your house, you are Nuts hand grinding that thing clean. But it did come out Awesome!

 

Thanks guys! And RJ, it's not that bad......just time consuming!

 

This just arrived today:

Sharpshooter and I will be moving the spring perches, and welding on the brackets for the longbars we made tomorrow. Hopefully saturday, the gears and eaton lsd will go in. If all goes well, it'll be painted sunday and the spacers will go on as well. The TA cover will be here next week.

 

Thanks for getting my parts Josh I'll be down later today to pick them up.

 

No problem, that'll only be $2500!!

 

Well, got alot done the past two days. Yesterday, sharpshooter and I were able to get a little done. First, we moved the spring perches over an inch on each side, and tacked them on. Then we tacked the brackets on for the longbars we made.

First pic is tacking on one of the perches:


Just another pic tacking the perch on:

Excellent looking fab work guys!

Will this require any driveshaft adjustments length wise?

 

Thanks for the compliments! Yeah, the driveshaft will have to be shortened.

I took the rear up to my stepdad's shop yesterday, and he stick welded the perches and brackets on. We also installed the gears and the eaton posi. I'll try to get a few pics up today.

 

To any one looking for Info on this type of swap, I made an Offical 14 bolt 9.5 thread a while back. There are links to every worth while swap thread at the time I wrote it along with pictures and documentation I compiled on what is different and by how much.
