1993 Splash build

God I love my truck. I just had to go pick up a friend . and take him home. His front wheel drive car wouldn't make it. Gotta love making an easy $30. FYI we have around 8 inches on the ground and nobody's touched it yet.

Just got a quote from CCOR (vendor on Pirate) for a pair of Rough Country 6.5" cherokee coils. $125 shipped to my door.

They're upped the PPI from 170 to 190 for anyone interested.

Just put an order in to PartsMike for OE spicer Dana 44 balljoints, GM spindle studs, and High steer stud set. Can't wait to get them installed!

Will u be sitting higher with those springs? Sounds like u have almost everything? Will the swap be soon?

 

[brinker88]

Ford78, yes. It'll put me at around 7 inches give or take. I'm removing the body lift when I SAS the truck. And I'm far from beginning the swap. I still need:

4.56 gears
Locker or TrueTrac
DOM for extending the radius arms (And johnny joints for that matter)
RuffStuff Steering kit
RuffStuff panhard kit
Track bar brackets (upper/lower)
Dutchman shafts for the rear 8.8
Misc. brake parts (calipers, 1/2 ton MC, etc.)
Misc. other hardware/bushings.
Yukon chromo's and LONG's ( u-joints)
Rough Country steel 5x5.5 15x8 wheels

And I haven't decided if I want to add hydro assist yet with 35's

I would definitely plan to hydro assist. I think I might have you order me a set of those coils, they sound about right for my next project. What coils are you running now? I might be interested in those once you swap, if its soon...

I'm runnin 3.5" Early Bronco coils from BC Bronco's. I'll hit you up when I'm ready to sell them.

Spent 2 hours or so cleaning up the housing today. Also honed out the inside of the axle tubes so I don't ruin the new Inner axle seals.

 

[brinker88]

Photo's for you picture freaks out there. Narrowed housing is just tacked on for now. I need to take it into my shop to get the tubes burned in and the wedge assembly burned in.

 

[RangerSVT]

Looks pretty good, but uh, you missed a spot! lol

[brinker88]

They were including in the price of the Chevy axle I bought for $150 which gave me the high steer arms, knuckles, spindles, caliper brackets, etc.

They're Sky manufacturing arms though which sell for around $160 + shipping by themselves

No problem. I'm all about sharing part numbers and vendors. Those are by far the cheapest arms on the market though.
