Ryan`s truck?

I doubt it will ever happen but it looks very tempting to turn Ryan`s old 4X4 truck into this: https://www.ford-trucks.com/user_gal...117548&width=0

The hard part with that is that you got the twin I beam not a solid front end.

I know someone has a straight axle.
Like I said, I doubt it`ll ever happen or that I`ll even think about it.

You can weld the twin traction beam into a solid axle but you need a 6" lift for the suspension to work. This pretty much only works on the Dana 50 which his only has the Dana 44.
