    this is with the new tires put on. I have to take a few days off to study for finals but then the front TTB is coming off and the front 60 is going in.

    Dam that thing looks high. Did you add some lift?

    Edit: I noticed the jack stands holding it up.

    No more lift. I am going to cut the rear fenders. The rear is sitting on the ground, but the front is on jack stands.

    i beg to differ sir...

    i still dont get it. i see that the front is on jackstands but if all the weight of the rear is sitting on the tires...why is there still so much clearance? was it that much before?

    Yeah i had 5.5 inches of lift on it before with 33's and i did not lift it up any more. so the rear is sitting how it is gonna sit. plus some fender trimming. I am trying to keep the center of gravity down low. I might take out the 2.5 inch blocks and do the shackle flip to get more flex in the rear. The front end is hanging down cause of the jack stands.

    rear end needs brakes and i need to get the rear drive shaft cut down 2 inchs or so.

    front end is going to be some fun. I might try to move the front axle forward. But then that might cause some steering problems. but i will have to see what happens when i get the old stuff off and the new springs mounted in the front

    How are you mounting your front D60? When I installed mine I moved the front axle 3" forward so that the tires did not hit the cab, But I only had 2.5" of lift so that might not be a problem with yours. I made my own steering linkage and it worked fine with the axle moved forward but my bronco is also older.

    think they take swapped axles into consideration?

    Alright you can not really see to well here but the TTB is off the front of the truck and now its time to make some brackets for the springs that should be alot of fun.
