damn that thing looks clean. to bad it will never look that good again.

We think alike. That's the same swap that's in the future for me. What I'm really interested in is how the ZF and 205 fit with the cab on.



I don't care what anyone says about the stack. That is badass. The only thing that could make it better is a pair.

I've seen duals done on a sweet 460 (?) powered ranger. I'm pretty sure it was orange or red.

I've looked into stacks, and those buggers are expensive. If a guy could find a set cheap from a semi wrecker or something, that would be the way to go.

yea im not sure if im using the stack yet, i got it free from work.

im going to have to cut the whole center out of my floor to fit the zf and 205 cuz i raised them up so underneeth the frame would be all flat for a good skidplate to protect all that expensive stuff.

the center section of my floor im going to make removable to i can get to my tranny and case and all the lines im running under it easy

Well, that is one kickass build ya got there, I'd love to swap all my narrow SAS stuff under a first gen when I swap to FW's later on. I've got a few sets of stacks at work I can use, so they're cheap to me, lol.

the build is lookin badass keep us updated...that is the way it's supposed to be lifted and a badass drivetrain to match you just made my day.

 

[Hahnsb2]

Use the stack except put it on the passenger side, single turnouts look badass.

 

[DieselSmoke]

rear side of crossmember done, .188 wall 1.5x1.5 square tube. ballistic fab poly ends/sleeves

what do you think of that design? its kinda hard to tell but as i build it you will see

 

[wahlstrom1]

what do you think of that design?

What do I think...? I think your makin the rest of us look bad! Once again, awesome work your doin there

[DieselSmoke]

the NP205 Pto cover mount out of .25 plate and 45* mounts .375 thick

i have a solidworks file of it if anyone needs it (or you could just trace over the stock plate i just felt like making it up )

 

[zainyD]]

Looks like a VERY strong design.

Will you be required to run a body lift for clearance?

 

[DieselSmoke]

mabey, i didnt really want to... i was planning on chopping up the floor and running tube across the sides to mount seets and new floor but i may have to do a slight lift
