I wish I could do all that but 3 kids takes a lot of money and being a farm hand takes my time good job your truck is sweet I like the sas and 5.0 but I'm not into pre runners. All I see is corn fields and mud

ps what did you do with the coil over shocks

Thanks! Closest desert to me is like 200+ miles away. Thats why I went with solid axle so I can still do mountain trails. I have my old setup for sale right now.

Drove a 600 mile round trip to Kansas with no major issues with V8 or solid axle. Truck runs good also got my led bar mounted and wired up

Even got a blue switch!

Only thing I need to do is make new mounts for my bumper and fix a few small things

How much is the old setup

getrdone52 · Feb 18, 2014

I was thinking around $700. I bought the coilovers for like $600 and the brackets were $300. Didnt even have them on for a year

I need more

Haven't been on here in awhile so I figure its time for an update. So the truck runs good but once again I'm having problems with my 4x4. Sounds like something is grinding in the front axle but I think the u joints are binding. It was working fine before I put in the explorer leafs but they lifted the rear 2". I put in 4° shims under the leafs and it helped with some vibrations but it didn't fix it. Anyway heres some recent pics

Also gunna swap to an 01 front end with new taillights. Only thing I need is a grille.

Did you beef it up at all or is it just stock. what gears are you running. Do you think the 35s are to big or is holding up good. any problems yet. did you narrow it at all

getrdone52 · Jul 28, 2014

Trussed D30 with 4.88s everything holding up fine with 35s

Front end swap done!

getrdone52 · Jul 28, 2014
