Well I need to fix a few things like my tie rod is just waiting to get smashed because its in the front. I do have the high steer set up but i need to go to 52's in the front. right now i am running stock length springs.
The Ram is mounted to the axle via CNC brackets and the stock tie rod location. from your picture its the same place just the bracket is moved closer to the pumpkin housing

the tires are some used Parnelli Jone Dirt Grip tires 37.12.50 on some 16.5 rims

your Front bumper rocks !

Military trucks like mine have a hitch on the frame and we had to notch the flip to clear the hitch

At the moment im not wheeling the truck so im not to concerned with braking the frame but at some point I will install the ORD steering box brace and or box the frame in that area.
