I'm only seeing two pictures in the last post and none in the other. All gray -'s. The reid knuckle and the axle.

Looking great. What are your plans for shocks on this? How much travel are you shooting for?

Good question on travel. I am thinking King or Fox resevoir shocks.

I'm thinking that is the way to go too. Any dealer recommendations? King's website has a lot to be desired.

It may be worth a call to Don Thuren and seeing if he'd valve something for your application, and just kick ideas around with him. I hate to encourage you to spend more money, but I've never been sorry for the investment I've made on suspension stuff. I usually end up wishing I would've gone the next step!

Good idea, I have some Thuren parts on my truck and have been happy with them.

Got a little bit of time to get some work done.

Figured out track bar mount, waiting for it to get cut out:

Made a hose for the Ford oil pressure sending unit:
