Some of you guys have been following my build on this site, so here is some updates on my junk.

Started lift as a 2wd '67 F100 shortbox, now its a 4x4.

Skyjacker 4" softrides out back, Pro Comp 4" Rear Springs up front, Dana 60 rear, dann 44 front (soon to be changed out for a 60 front).

Has a warm 390 under the hood, NP 435/208.

Well, after I re-did my front suspension today, my d-shaft is now the proper length so I tested out some articulation on the truck tonite.

I found that I need to add some more hard line to my passenger side brake lines, but other than that the truck did very well for its first time being 4x4.

looking good!

Very nice! The older iron is the best for sure.

Thanks for the votes of confidence guys. This is my first buildup by myself, and its definately been a learning experience!

Nice work. I'm a big fan of the older Ford metal too.

You got more flex out of those springs than I thought you would. It's even more impressive since you don't have the bed on there with it's weight to force articulation.

Thanks

Tomorow I will know for sure exactly how much it flexes once I fix the brake line issues. I am putting it up on the forklift tomorrow, will be sure to snap some photos when I do that, it will also have the box re-installed to see if I need to cut the fenders.

Looks killer. I like that you cut off the super low hanging front spring mount you built the first time and redid it. It looks alot better now.

Thanks. I agree 110%, I never did plan on running that setup. I just needed to save some coin for new springs, and needed to get it sitting level. That is why I never did tie those hangers together and only put 2 bolts in each one. They got tossed about 12ft across the shop today. :grinpimp:

nice buildup, gives me ideas for my 78 f150 build up with the springs

Reminds me of a 68" (Betsy) 2wd I had.:) You did a Great job..........Real metal:grinpimp:


:jester:

Thanks guys. Took her out tonite and got it covered in mud :D Also crawled around on some more stuff. Need to get the rear welded up here sometime soon. Other than a few small details the drivetrain/suspension should be done. :smokin:

Got the box put on it today, gonna get some pics of it flexing with box posted up tomorow, then gonna rip it all apart an paint it up this weekend.

nice rig man, those '67-72 fords probably have my all time favorite body lines. it looks really good.

hurry up

Ya Ya, moving kinda slow today. Yesterday was the 1 year anniversary of one of my best friends' brother being killed in Iraq, so we drank a 1.75 of Cap'n Morgan last nite and a bunch of shots.

Here is a link of my truck idling in the driveway today, how much do ya'll think I need to lift the rear to level out the truck?
