here you get some shots of the panhard bar...
This is one more reason for the No Limit 4 link... i wanted the long panhard bar.
...i guess when the bed fenders etc. are mounted, the panhard bar will be almost level.
Also i have room for height "adjusting"

Ok i "lowered" the Truck today :-)
Without drivetrain i had 9 1/2" at the lower frame rails to the ground. With drivetrain i have 7" now.
So it seems my springs ar too soft. There is not a lot of suspension travel right now and when everything is completed it will be less.
I guess i have to look for springs with higher rate.

Thanks Jason,
next step is to weld the baffles into the oilpan, than i can paint it and finally put together with oilpump etc.
Than i have to built a longer driveshaft.
Since the Engine is way stronger, what do you guys think... shall i take the larger 1330 Yoke with the bigger cap U-Joints?
