could a leaf spring expert tell me the best/cheapest way to get a setup going for the front. Should I just dump the ****ty steering and go for cross over steering? I don't want to spend much more time on this rig as I'm ready to start on another project, and do everything right from the start.
cross over=more than that peice is worth.
maybe old high boy steering?
you still want those hummer tires swapped over?
you need a gas tank. i have one out of a late 80's cherokee that should be good.
me and a can of ether got the tires on.Quote:

a lot of guys use F-350 fronts, me and cook used chevy 52"
x2 on the 52"s

52's are hypothetically better because of pinion drooping issues but I have been running 56's in Pigpen for the last 3 years and havent broken a single front driveshaft u-joint.
I'll take the 56's:gigem:Quote:
