So it’s been a minute since I have updated as to what has been going on, so here it goes.
New rear end in. Dropped in a Ford 8.8 with limited slip locker, sye kit and very short drive shaft. All new steering. New front and rear fishbone off-road bumpers with winch. And one of my favorite mods, 3/16” 304 stainless custom rockers. (Those we’re fun to make and install. Buddy who fabed em for me said if I dented them he wanted to be on the ride!
New rear upper control arms (needed after a 2” lift jumped it up almost 7”, old suspension was shot) really threw off our math putting in the new rear end. All in all a lot of fun to build!

Great color too! Love that color orange myself.
Nice job, keep us updated.
Looks like I'm about ready to move to the bottom myself.
