  1. got the original driveshaft back in.
  2. Added lights at a legal height. The stock ones are around 63" in the center and the state wants <54". Also got the high steer in. Still waiting on the drop pitman to come in.
  3. Took care of the rear sway bar today. Down the road i'll switch to real links.
  4. Thank you. Still needs a few things done here and there. Driveshafts, rear sway bar, high steer, ABS.. and probably a few little things i'm missing. BUT, getting closer.
  5. Was able to pull it out today and put the tires on
  6. Got the air shocks in and installed them
  7. Heres the upper mount for the rear airshocks
  8. If I recall my measurements, the distance from mount to mount for the air shocks is around 30". The 16" air shocks I bought are 23" compressed and 39 extended. In theory that means 7 up and 9" down. The real question is will the suspension really cycle that much..
  9. Got them mounted and balanced. Here are some pics with them temporarily mounted.
  10. rims came in today Just ordered the air shocks for the rear also. Fox 2.5 16"
  11. got some sweet braided brake lines made found some used 37x13.5x22 tomorrow Mts. Here are the 22x14 -76 rims I ordered. should be in by tomorrow Adapter the emergency brake to fit the sterling10.5 lines
  12. Sounds like a good time. when and how many days would it last?
  13. Ended up ditching the original axle side track bar mount and making my own Threw together some temporary steering. Something to allow me to drive the car into the shed, letting me work on the rear of the car. Got the rear axle removed Got the ford axle rolled in Started the rear 4 link
  14. Heres the new track bar bracket I made. Ties into the factory subframe bolt Made an adapter to make the factory F-350 sway bar fit on the rear subframe mount holes.
  15. Cleaned up the rear axle and got all the brackets off of it Got the Sterling 10.5 to Nissan adapter line made
  16. Thanks for sharing the idea. I like it!
  17. Got the air shocks mounted Made a temporary track bar bracket so i can set the ride height later without the car tilting off to the side The plan for the new track bar bracket will be similar, but I want to tie it into both original bolts and have it go a little further down, and also further out towards the driver side
  18. Got the 4-link brackets burned in and mocked up the shocks Cleaned up the 4 links
  19. Almost forgot, brake lines and spacers came in today also
