Cool my typical iPhone has microphone issues I'll try to convince the wife to let me get some video with her phone of it running and driving and a walk around some times this week got the drive shaft shortened lastnight just need to throw her on the the real fun begins
 
4x4 is working and it is awesome with this deep freeze that we are having here minus 40c with wind the ice is crazy it was a lot if fun ripping up the steepest iciest hill I could find it was awesome
 
Have any pictures of oil sump clearance and location in relation to the cross member?
 
Well ill tell you right now it's bare minimum clearance but I will try to take some asap
 
I had to lower my steering rack/ sway bar 2 inches to make mine fit. And I only have about 1/4-3/8 of a inch clearance to my hood
 
Mine is lifted 1.5" in the front and I dropped my sway bar 3" which definately helped with the handling I have a dropped pitman arm but I haven't put it on yet but steers fine I moved the tranny ahead 1.375" from factory and that gave it enough clearance to clear up I have plent of clearance hood wise.
 
I reused the Benz trans and I was able to reuse the oem trans mount location on the ranger, inch it so from the fire wall.

I think a f150 pitman arm is what you need. A guy who did a n/a om617 used one on his
 
Mine is a sky jacker dropped pitman arm it clears it then sum I could lift the truck to 4" over factory and it still will work in factory location. Your truck is a newer body style is it not?
