That chain is pretty awesome you know... LOL
It's going to be a bolt on affair for the front...
I was planning on picking up the deck I'm going to cut apart for material this coming weekend, but, depending on what pans out parts wise for the week, I may end up spending the weekend working on the Dodge, need it fixed ASAP, if I get that 96, I'm gonna swap over the P-Pump engine and the NV4500, half the mileage(180K vs 415), and quite a bit more power potential...
Currently wrenching on the old 6.9 pile to get it back roadworthy, it's been sitting for coming up on 2 years. Should have it back in service tomorrow afternoon. Have to have a truck rolling so I can keep the 460 project funded.

Well, I might as well bump this back up...
My Dodge is still dead, but life goes on...
Drove my old 6.9 pile for a while, scored this free:
96 in my sig...
Picked up this for a glow plug job on a factory turbo 94 IDI:
Finally got back to working on the pig last weekend, changed the oil pan so I could have a dipstick actually fit in the pan, a 97 style pan with the clip in stick doesn't work with headers for an 86. Nothing too exciting there
But, I have something new and exciting to take pictures of tomorrow... They're big, round, wide, and made of rubber... LOL

Yah, Sioux is pretty far north... LOL
The picture of the Stroker was taken about 35 km south of Pickle Lake though. LOL
Most of my wheeling is in Dryden, we have a pretty good crew. Currently we have 5 trucks on 44's, probably another 4-5 on 40's, and some Jeeps too, still nothing smaller than a ZJ on 35's in the main crew.
I apologize for it only being a cell phone pic, but:
44x18's.... They are non dot due to being 18 and not 19.5, but, for $350 a piece new from Interco, I couldn't say no... LOL

Trucks finally coming together, again lol. I wanted to ask you what front rear hangers you used to do your shackle flip? I have a 78 f250 4wd and was going to lift it with rough countrys 4 inch lift. I wanted rear leafs but the price between leaf and non leaf kits is enough to pass on. So I figured I'd look into buying the non leaf kit, throwin the blocks aside and just flippin the shackle instead. I'm guessin it got ya about 4 inches? Bolt on affair? Thanks.

Interco sells their blems etc. direct from their website. They had 20 of these on there, we bought 2 sets and the rest disappeared inside the day.
The spring hangars I used are stock front ones from roughly the same year F150. I just had them laying around. I'd say it was closer to 6", but I didn't really measure. More or less bolt on, if you consider drilling new holes still bolt on.
