A couple old beamed Fords in Socal

[zachwabbit]

Been lurking on this site for awhile, the tech write ups and vin information have helped me a lot so figured I’d finally sign on. I live in rural San Diego, and have a couple Fords that take up most of my free time and paychecks hah. I joined mainly because of my factory 2wd ‘89 B2, but you may see my ‘93 F-150 pop up here and there.

Cool prerunner BII.... You just don't realize how lucky you are living in a rust free state.

Thanks, and I wouldn’t exactly consider my area rust ‘free’ but I know I’m better off than most states haha

Way better off... those BII's around here have been swept up from the shop floors for two decades...

I live in Illinois. I got a cheap Ranger from a friend, by the time I pulled all the rust out of the cab I didnt have a floor to sit on.. anyway, nice B2. What suspension/tire setup are you running?

In that pic I was running a setup I threw together last minute to hit some trails. Stock width bent cast beams and stock length Autofab radius arms, 6” Skyjacker coils, and a pair of 5100s. Rear was stock leaves on lift shackles with Dirt Logic 2.25” inline resi shocks. On 33x12.5 KO2s and 15x8 Vision Manx’s. Currently it’s sitting on jack stands and the only thing remaining from that setup on the front will be the beams themselves
