Here's the best I have of mine. I always forget to pose and snap a few pics when I'm out wheeling.

I'm running a 4+Overload pack from an '89 Ex. Cab F-150. So far I  :love: :love: them!

IFS rear was night/day difference with my set up. My wheels would rub on the frame before the swap. Beautiful wheeling pics '79.  Please retake your flexs pic with the wider axle.  I'd love to see the before/after.

See my build thread, page 3, for my install (http://board.marlincrawler.com/index.php?topic=34658.60). I moved the front hanger 4.5" forward, and the rear hanger 3" back. If you're running a shorter shackle, then you might have to move the rear hanger back about 3.5".

I have no idea how much lift I got. I can probably clear 35's no problem.
