frame sounds sweet are you using a dana 44 up front and debating a 60 or 70 in rear? i would go with the 70 if i had it there already i went with a 14 bolt take some pics of the tank when you get it done sounds like its gonna be nice i'm soon going to have to figure out a extra tank for my crew soon almost done welding the 12v mounts

 

on the axle thinking go with dana 70 but also thinking keep the rotating mass down for fuel mileage. 1.5" axles are nice on dana 70 and never have to worry about with smaller tires 285 75 16. the seats was a surprise on how simple it is to make work. make a bracket on floor to support ends and build a bracket on back wall of cab where the fuel tank used to be. fuel is now all outside, safety for me. on the fuel tank its a round aluminum tank been modified to set on frame and a few upgrades not to tricky. headers are a pain but has to be done. taking awhile to get decent. not gonna be perfect but worth the effort.

 

pulled a f-250 dana 44 for the front. wanted the heavier axle tubes for my application. light duty f-250 with some skills. looked at dana 60 but trying to keep the weight down wherever i can. not gonna be running any big tires on the truck, want a driver. lookin at a true trac for the front. got to get some more money up to do that project. pwr steering is next after headers and then disc brakes frt/rear.

 

built up steering gearbox to frame today. frame modified and built up for support. headers on truck this week. looks good and clearanced good. will send headers off later once i free up some money on other projects. custom aluminum fuel tank pick up tommorrow. gonna have master cylinder installed by this weekend.

 

getting hydroboost system figured out tonight. bolt pattern different. gonna need to be modified but not a major problem. housing is about 1" wider bolt pattern than standard manual brakes drum brake system. break out the plasma and welder again. gonna be cool once completed. some more photos in my albums in aluminum flat bed photos. catch you guys later.

 

So when ya gonna post some ---- pic's?

 

keepin AA batteries are a pain with new camera's. will get some photos tonight tuesday. sorry for slackin and its lookin cool for old iron.

 

I bought a charger and a set of battery's years ago. Rechargeable's don't hold there charge as long but still if ya got an extra charged set yer good to go. I have battery's that are 5 years old and still work great. AA's are needed in the mouse, TV remote and most everything. I have saved hundreds of dollars in battery's by recharging them. Just sayin.

 

now my pictures will not download, sucks. i'm on the move alot and keepin charged batteries is a pain. question is where to keep charger? was checkin out the HO bronco. have a few questions artic y block. will purchase a bronco soon for off road racing and will upgrade axles. go fast broncos is a great site to check out for that ford and others.

 

got everything pretty much mocked up. me and my buddy jason prepped and got everything epoxy primer and did a first coat on fiberglass front clip inside and out. I later got everything mounted the next day. do some final adjustments and will smooth out first coat of paint when i get back from north dakota. makin some bank$$ got to keep my ford motorsports program alive. Found a decent grill shell and had to fix a few spots to look decent. ordered some aluminum pieces from LMC for around head light. wasted a lot of time trying to find good grille. found one in scrap yard but dude wouldn't sell!! Next finish up tranny when i get back with ZF 5 speed.

 

wyoming4x4's Public Profile on Photobucket.com lots of 4x4 stuff and wyoming and my projects.

 

getting closer that cab is great looking all fresh i can't wait until i have a rust free cab did you get any pics of the hydroboost? be interested in seeing how you did yours i'm just about done mine on the crew from a 06 dodge cummins speaking of that time to go wrench and try to finish up the booster mounting keep up the progress

 

will be picking up some new hydroboost lines from master cylinder boost down to pump. using stuff from a f-450 1996 to get the job done. its really starting to come together. once tranny done it will go a lot faster. the zf-5 speed to 400 has taken up a lot of time and interesting learning curve.

 

since i just mentioned the hydroboost i went out and test fitted the adapter plate i made bolts to 4 of the pedal assembly support brace bolts should hold up i think and go's through the stock location

 

the question is who is gonna roll first? probably you first. been working very steady and killing my toy time. talk soon.
