So was going to try to order some wheel spacers for the front tomorrow. Was going to measure my inset when I get home tonight but was wondering what anybody had to say about running them. What brands work the best. Was trying to recoup some Turing radius. Running the 35s they keep hitting my shocks and my turning radius sucks because I cant go lock to lock. Not to mention the front tires sit in to far and looks dumb.

Wheel spacers are on and I now can turn 35s lock to lock with no clearance issues and they don't hit the shocks. The turning radius is now awesome.

Next up is to lower the back down a bit. The rear is 3 inches taller then the front and I would only like about and inch or less of rake.

Looks good....but the wheel bearings in your dana 28 absolutely hate you right now. Lol
Dana28+35s+wheel spacer=PROBLEMS
 
lol yes I have a dana 35 to swap into it. Just needs a rebuild and a locker. Was going to tackle that this winter or sooner if the wheel bearings start to get sloppy.

So I was pretty busy sat but started to fool around with installing the new fan in the ranger. Deff makes a bit of a diff.

Still need a good switch 12v power source to tap in to and then I should be in business.

I picked a new car up for the fiancée though and that took up a good bit of my time. Little more work and it will be good as new.

This build is going great. Looks like you're doing everything right! The James duff stuff is really nice.

Ran out in the garage tonight for a few min and leveled the suspension. Looks a lot better now.

Long time haven't posted anything. Have been busy with other things but I got the truck cleaned up and took it to all truck in carslile today. And then on the way back did a little light trail driving. First time out in the truck really. And I was impressed that it didn't break down.
