That extra inch would be nice. So no issues with the centerpin riding on the axle?

Any updates?

And not to get off topic, but are those pitbulls a mounted on 17 x 9's? What do they measure actual height? Radials right?



Sorry havent looked at this in a while. been busy collecting parts.

No issues with centerpin riding on axle, but i usuallly run a grade 8 bolt or allen bolt for a centerpin. I may rework the hangars before it's all said and done to run a pack with a little bit of arch in it so the springs are instantly going negative.

Yes, i am running 37" Rocker Radials on 17x8 steelies with 3.5" BS. there is a picture i took in this thread of the actual height when i had them on my first gen. http://board.marlincrawler.com/index.php?topic=78876.60

No real updates until the parts start coming in.

I ordered a RuffStuff 9.5 axle housing with 80 outers. should be here in a couple weeks.

3 link kit also coming from RS.

FOA coilovers sitting in the 40.

ECU built for the 1uz. Have a few trans options at my disposal, just deciding on tcase.

Trying to bring myself to putting a heep part(D300) behind it.

Picked up an extra cab and had enough mini truck parts laying around for an sas so i knocked that out in the meantime. Also have a complete 39 Ford in boxes and donor 5.0L drivetrain ive been wanting to get to sooner rather than later.

I have a lot of work to do and i plan to wheel this thing in July.
 
Just to give some resolution to this. Been trying to make some progress so I can wheel this thing before the end of the year.

I ended up at 22" on 37s. Nothing has been broken in yet and (as you can see) I dont have my top, bumpers, winch, or cage in yet so I expect it to drop another 2-3 inches. 40" Nittos coming tax time.

102" Wheelbase
