well the chassis is from my 77f150. When i first put the rocks under it i bought some deaver 4" super flex springs but ended up using these red ones which are 8" skyjackers. The deavers looked badazz but were too short, i didn't have but about 1.5in of uptravel. I could have bought the deaver 6" but hell i already paid 175 for one set and couldn use em. I'll sell em cheap! LOL. when i put the ranger body on i put in the 557ci BBF. thats when i broke my front and decided on the rockwell swap. the rear springs are the stock 150s. I just moved the front hagers down the frame and flipped the shackles with a 4" block. I'll probobly get those other deaver springs down the road. I also sill have stuff i want to do, like a cage or exocage and maybe 4 link the rear. I'll post some flex and action shots soon. THanks for lookin!
Couple more questions....
-So used the 8" skyjacker lifted coils for like a 70s F150 or bronco?
-Do you have brakes on the front axle? I saw the ones on the back, and they looked great, but didn't notice any on the front..lol -
What did you do for the rear disc conversion? Buy a kit online or did you use 14Bolt parts or something?
-And are your hubs flipped in or out?
Either way, truck looks great. I'd go for a rollbar/cage, but I wouldn't go with an exo cage. I'd try to keep the body looking good without it. That's just me though....and holy fawk....a 557...seriously? lol. Wow!
On another note, you have any opinion or knowledge on how well a 351 windsor thats bored and stroked to 427 with the 86-93 mustang style fuel injection system would do in a truck like a Ranger for off road? I realy like that style of fuel injection due to the awesome availability of parts vs. the Ford truck EFI. And if I could make it work on a 351, that would be great.
