    SAS steering

    I've got a full width 44 from a 78 bronco to go under my ranger. I've been looking into all of the SAS build threads i can find. Seems like most guys are running a T linkage, and i think that is the way I want to go, for simplicity. I do not have a stock bronco tierod or draglink, which is fine...

    Cut and turn project

    Around new years I dove into a cut and turn d35 project. I set my goals: 4" added spring height for 6" of lift, and strategic bracing to make the beams stronger. I want to run 35's when all is said and done. I did a bunch of research and looked at alot of set ups. I decided against relocating...

    stalls when braking

    I have a 94 with a 4.0, and have what I believe is a vacuum issue associated with the brake booster. When driving, say approaching a stop, clutch in or in neutral, when I apply the brakes the idle stumbles and if not revved, the motor stalls. I've checked the hose from the manifold to the...

    So being the frugal college student I am, I have been looking into steel fenders i could use as inners to enlarge my wheel wells to fit larger tires without lift. Poking around online i've found some good options in the $30-50 per fender price range. Tonight I went to home depot, and something...

    Cut and Turn

    I happened upon a set of D35 beams and arms for free. I've been reading whatever I can find about cutting and turning. I want to run 3" of lift, to match the coils I have. With some simple trig applied to the length of the beam, and the change in coil height, I have decided I need to build 6...

    I'm Lit

    Hi guys Just wired a couple 6" offroad lights to my factory fog wiring. I don't like how I can only run the lights in low beam. When I hit the high beams, or if the headlights are off, I cant use them. Do you guys know a way of bypassing this keeping the stock switch?
