Lots of work, looks good. When you gonna paint it?

(I'm making some progress as well, just finished the 4.0, M5OD and BW1354 swap in my BII)
 
Far from done. Still have 4 projects on the go. I was hopeing to get paint on it this year but didn't get everything done that I wanted. I still have this project to finish.:rolleyes:

Hmmm...Interesting...looks like one of my old BII's, only I didn't use a Ranger tailgate.
 
Looks good Joel.

I have a lot of ideas from your TTB that I want to put on mine.
 
Ya know you are a pic whore, but its fun I know. LOL

Lookin good man.
 
Soon to have some more upgrades. My 8.8 is out getting geared with 4.10's and will be packed with a locker. I've got a set of Durango leaf springs and some minty shackles. Thanks to Mjones, and great Ky weather. Getting my U-bolts today. Just need to figure out WTF I'm going to do for spring plates. The stock ones are flimzy and bend way too easy. I've got some 1/2" plate I could make some out of. Should go well with the 1/2" U-bolts. :D
 
Hey not a problem, glad to help.

You should make some out of that 1/2" plate you have. I still need to get me a new set for my 5/8" u-bolts; yes I said 5/8" u-bolts, that is all the shop had at the time I had mine made.
 
I was thinking about getting 5/8 ones also. But I'd rather not kink my axle tubes. I've used 9/16 U bolts before and they are overkill. The stock ones are metric but near a 1/2" size.
 
Yea I didnt' have to do anything with my tubes. They were custom bent to clear the axle tubes. The only modifications to anything was to the plates; I had to drill them to accept the 5/8" bolts.

I agree, they are WAY over kill, but I wanted them then and didn't want to wair:icon_cheers:
 
The only need for the 5/8 is when you are stacking blocks or over a 4" block height and need the tensile strength of a larger dia rod.

I've got 2" ranger blocks right now and I run the 9/16 U-bolts. The new setup will not have any blocks so the 1/2" is more than plenty.

Would be Kick ass if I could get the outboard shock setup done.
