Did you use your springs or Super Duty springs?
Looks nice!! Love the cut front bumper, looks nice. I use washers and shim mine forward as much as I can on all my OBS trucks as I like chrome and don't want to cut any more than the corner off.
If you do a shackle reversal you'll be thrilled in ride quality difference, I was.

I just re used my stock springs. I didn't know about the super duty springs otherwise I would have used my 30k mile set I have laying around...

I have it bent, welded and painted. I will get it put on and take some pics to post. It is 1.25" x .120 wall HREW tube.
My first time using my tube bender for something that needs to be perfect. I am very proud of it, it looks good. It has room for two 6" lights.
I will be making tube full length sliders soon.

For now it's running 35" MTR-Kevlars w/o any lift, just a front bumper trimming like Ponykilr did.
I too am a believer in a Low Center of Gravity, especially for 4x4's. By running 38" tires I'm gaining over 4 inches of lift and it's all gained at the axle where you need it the most.
Sweet looking Ford Ponykilr the grey wheels and black bumper/grill go well with the white paint, not to mention the large tires filling out the wheel wells nicely...
Cheers D

I just realized I promised to post pics of the light bar in this thread.
It is made to bolt on, not a push bar, just a light bar although it is .120 wall HREW.

My wheels are 8.25 wide (inside beads) and 3.5 backspace. The tires do not rub the spring.

That makes me happy, mine are 17x9 with a 4.5" backspacing. Thanks for the input.
