Well I have had a few two wheel drive trucks that have been fairly capable. The idea with this one is to keep all of the speed of the 2wd trucks and have the ability to get through most 4x4 trails. I do a lot of hunting and fishing that requires me getting back into some places that require 4x4 but first some pictures of my old trucks.
Now onto the new stuff started life as a bone stock 1993 4x4 4.0 autotragic unfortunately I have no pictures of it all stock. So here are some after wheels tires and fiberglass. Along with one next to my daily driver 4x4 5.4 2000 f150.
Then it was onto building a bed cage. Completely ditched the bed I'm running a 44 gal rci fuel cell, 2.5 Foa smooth bodies, deaver g50 pack kartek drop hangers with stock boxed shackles bumped and strapped at 17.
Decided to completely ditch the inner fenders up front because on my last two trucks they just ended up cracking a ripping apart over time not to mention trying to clear them at full bump.
Picked up some 6 over d35 ttb beams and weld it yourself radius arm brackets from Brandon at Btf motor sports wanted to build my own radius arms because I like a fairly decent amount of caster built into the front end. At that point I started building the engine cage at the moment it's just a single Foa 2.5 12in coilover with a 2.0 2in hydro bump but soon I'll be adding 3.5 bypasses out back and and a 2.5 14in bypasses up front. Also forgot to mention that I had the truck re geared 4.88s front and rear with a lsd out back just a temporary solution to the rear ended which will eventually be getting a 9inch once I can afford to put together a 3rd member.
I'll be adding some more pictures and stuff as soon as I get off work just doing this on my lunch break.
