another hp44 build thread

I use the f250 shock tower. And 35 inch rustys shocks. Which left them under the axle for mounting. We took a long 1/2 bolt and welded it to the side of spring clamp to keep it tucked in.

Finally out of garage under own power. Attachment 673104 I need to figure out the vent on the 44. Weld shock tabs on the 44 and shorten the front driveshaft.

Love that side shot of your Jeep! Remove that cage and it'll look like a WWII Willys on roids!

Thanks. But upgrading cage is next. Drove her to work last 2days. It's really hard keeping my foot out of her for the gear break in period

Now locked front and rear. Time for a badlands run

She worked great. It's nice to know I don't have to worry about my front end. And being locked front and rear with v8 power is killer. Once cage tied in to frame I will be pushing it a little further. But overall I am thouroghly happy with the HP44. Well worth the time and effort.
