How far along are you on this project? I would love to put rocs under my F150. How much $ is this costing you?
Sorry for all of the questions but I'm just curious.

I hate you guys that have a shop to work in, money to buy what you need, and know how to do stuff like this.

Looking good man!
You might want to push more of the weld onto the housing... but that's just my opinion. I may have asked you this before, but what do you have in the diffs?
Edit: I guess it was just that one weld... the rest look pretty well centered
