Hmmm, I am thinkin Katemcy is da debil to alternators as both of mine took a crap that sunday. :rolleyes:

some crap that got built today

That table got a metal plate on it? That trac bar looks hella stout, now ya just got to get some real tires to test it out. :gigem:

it looks like a gorilla traction bar

it may not bend but I bet you will crack the welds down at the end

i cut the bumper down. going to start gathering parts for a 60 swap.

I've looked at pictures of ryans and i suppose im going to do something similar with generic chevy 1/2 ton rear leaf springs. i'll make the rear brackets if i can't find the ones that everyone uses for cheap.

anyone know someone that needs some d 44s?

i'm going to cut the bumper off while building the front cross member. just figure out what to do with it afterwards.

the 35s hit on this piece of the bed already, so with 40s it'll be worse. i guess im gonna move the rear axle back and gain departure clearance or cut and move the the piece of sq tube. my wb is already 117". im not sure i want it longer.

how much would the WB change if you flipped your springs around? If your springs are like mine you could flip them around to gain some wheelbase, and gain alot of departure angle.

i may know someone interested in those or one of those axles. how much do you want for them or just one

what d44 gears?

both have 3.50s. i want at least 300 for both of them.

the cheby is sitting right at 119.5 IIRC. Don't know if that helps or not.

forgot that i could do that. does doing so have any ill effects on the springs?

no ill effects that I know of, you will just have to check pinion angle and lengthn the driveshaft.

people on fullsize say you run the risk of breaking the front spring eye, but i have no evidence to prove this. You will gain like 7 inches of wheel base i believe
