Ive been workin on the 67 a little latley. I did a rear shackle flip, and dropped the front hanger to get 4" of lift. Fabbed a crossmember to go between the hangers which have 1/4" plate welded to the backs. Dont have all the holes drilled in the pics though. Also got some 36" TSL's from tirepackage.

 

lookin GOOD! I can dig it

 

Looks good. Nice job.

 

Wow, the truck looks great without paint. I would be thinking 10 clear coats.

 

some better pics...

 

Am I correct that this hanger is held in place by 2 bolts through the frame and then the lower half of it is supported by a crossmember that connects it to the other hanger?

 

thats what i'm wondering. If it is, I can just see it shearing them off in a high impact situation.

 

Or even an emergency braking situation or on a hard corner . . . which makes me sad in pants. And even if the bolts don't sheer the area around the bolt hole on those hangers can start to fatigue and crack over time.

 

looks good, i really dig the fenders... yu going to lock the reaR?

 

No, the stock bracket has 1/4" plate welded to the back which is then welded to the crossmember. Then another peice of 1/4" is welded onto the front of the back peice, which bolts to the frame...

Here is a pic of it from when I first mounted it... In the pic I still needed to drill the 2 extra holes in the frame.

 

Im getting 4.56 gears and welding the rear end.

 

Truck looks great.
Should do really good with the gears and lincon locker.
