Got around to switching out steering boxes and threw the engine in just to get it out of the way...



Axle is coming forward an inche or two; this is purely "to move around" mounting:


I'm going to run this type of setup for the hydro mount but with DOM that isn't .25" too big as seen here:
Outer thin rings will be welded to toe bar and the center will hold the ram's end and be loose to adjust alignment. I saw a write-up or two but can't find my bookmarks for them... but it's been done before.


Cut off torque bar and stock shock mounts (frame will be plated for IFS anyways):


Making a mess of things:


I may have to re-do the hydro mounting even though I have a 2wd T100 oil pan... we shall see:
