Awesome man.  Glad to see you putting some big axles under that beast.  Those dually hubs make that axle look freakishly wide.

I have a question and I haven't read your whole build up but why would you choose to keep leaves?  If your there and have everything cut off why wouldn't you run coils and links or Coil overs...I mean you can get some coils off of an explorer or newer jeep and build your links and stuff.....Other than that question   :thumbs: looks good  :beerchug:

Baby steps! I dont want to dump a bunch of money into links (not yet anyways) Once I get it running and take it out a few times im sure things will change but for now im just trying to keep it cheap $.

my old lady is doing the same thing she talked me into selling mine. I was under the impression that by selling id get to use the funds to build another but she thinks selling mine would put a nice down payment on a new car for her I just said  :shake_head: and now im keeping it forever and ever and ever to the grave.

thats basically what happened. i sold some parts to buy :pokinit: i needed for this build, when she saw the cash i had she threw a fit because i was going to use it to buy parts and not spend it on her
