Just pulled it out of the garage from installing the lift, by my self no way of knowing how far I was up the pile, i know it has way more. I need to get some pics on a trail.

poser shot for the shakedown, moved my shackles inboard about 4"

ext shackles, MAF long AALs, icky Skyjacker hydros are limiting my travel, Ford shock towers and new shocks are next.
 
those are some huge shackles.

Huge and upside down. Inversion pin should be closest to the frame.
 
Damn you, I noticed only after I got the first one on. But once flattened it does not interfere, and inversion won't be an issue ith the new hanger location.

No hard feelings man, Looks like its hitting the passenger side spring in the picture anyway haha.

When you say inboard you mean moved them closer together to improve the shackle angle? That makes sense.
 
none taken, this rig is committed to buttfxxxery. weekend trail rig/critter gitter/object of abuse.

I would flip the shackles but it does not effect function so I don't care, it does flex like a mother now. I'm anxious to get the new shock mounts because I think there is another 4" of travel in there.
 
Bj60eh Nice, putting that frame to work!

Well since, its been revived. This is pre tires, have yet to do bump stops. FYI Front only is SUA, pooooser shots (measuring shocks)

As she sits now,

What shocks did you end up with?

Debating on whether a 12" stroke shock will do or if 14" is needed.

Has anyone run 14" up front SUA? Thanks.
 
This is Stock on 32s but i do have new shackles but there the smallest ones so no real lift there.. i could have flexed a tad more but someone before me... stacked rocks :mad:

Revived once again! Here's a pretty recent one of mine at one of the play areas in Hollister Hills.

Would have looked like more from the other side....

cool rigs, looks like fun

there's no gas in that gas can right? horizontal on a roof typically isn't optimal for a jerry can.
 
Here's some of mine going up to crown king two months ago

Summer's over and I know we all have pics to show off... so lets revive this thread again! :flipoff2:

With the springs now broken in and the weight of the new front bumper, my 60 is flexing better than ever. Although the rear still doesn't flex quite as much because the tires are rubbing the inside of the wheel wells at full flex. I need to put a spacer back there, but since its not a huge problem, I'd rather wait to get different wheels/tires when these wear out than run another set of sketchy 1/4" spacers like I have on the front. These pics are with no swaybar attached, and I have no bumpstops... still need to figure that one out...:eek:

care to elaborate on that? never heard that before. and jeez my truck has changed a lot from less than a year ago when Darrell took that pic. new bumpers, auburn LSD...etc


in order from most flex to least lol my rig is the only one that could keep all 4 tiress on the ground in that section and I sit the lowest :D Machinist looks like hes rubbing in the front :hillbilly:
