Branger III almost done

[Todd]

I am also running the sploder front shaft as the rear. And its just as simple as others have said, all you need is the four bolt flange from the t case side of the rear shaft.

hey guys thanks for the response that helps alot i guess im going to have to buy an explorer rear shaft and get the tcase flange? did i get that right, if thats all then its not a problem. the rig looks alot different now those are old pics it now has a full exo cage, radiator moved to the back,fuel cell, dual exhaust. also waiting on SAS.. lo my D28 just wont break!! i run 33's and beat the hell out of it... HAHA, i will post pictures in 2 weeks when i get home, i work in northern alberta building oil rigs, im currently on the CNRL horizon oil sands project and i stay in camp here for 20 days at a time. oh and junkie the shaft has already been shortend 1-1/4'' i have the Fm146 tranny, but im going to order the DD doubler kit so ill proboly cut and shorten it again, thanks for all your help guys as i said when i get home i will post ALOT more pics!

Yo,
Dude, that looks pretty sick. I got a little worried about the shocks, then i read that they were not charged. LOL. You also might want to look into a high-steer conversion. That steering angle looks a little steep. Keep up the good work!

well kind of, the rig was almost entierly built of spare parts i had laying around for my ex cab. 4x4 which i rolled. my 4cyl 2wd that needed a motor and my friends old broncoII i watched burn when the sterio wires arked out against the header, and payed 50$ for. the only thing i had to buy for this project was the full width front 44. for $150 and a few little things here and there. lots of time a bit of black tremclad and and some spray bombs. if you knew me and they way i treat my 4x4's you wouldnt take the extra effort to mak it a show truck either. it Will be covered in trail Rash so im not too woried about the mug shot!
