Looks good but you need to add some gussets to the front hangers going back to the frame rails an add some structure to your shackles to keep them from twisting and folding. Other than that keep up the good work.

Those shackles are fine the way they are the wont ever move with what im going to do with it. Im not monster truckin' like everyone else. The shackles are 1/2'' think cold rolled steel stock with 5" c-channel inbetween then. All welds are triple stichted. 1/2" bolts..... The front ill NEVER think twice about moving, cause if it does i WILL need a new truck. Its bolted to the stock hanger points, frontclip, and frame, Triple stitch weld all the way around. The tubing that the hanger mounts are on now is inside of the tube mouted to the truck. Triple stiched outside and much as humanly possible inside. The hangers on front are triple stitched also. So im not going to worry about my front hanger mount, ever. And as for the shackles, if they ever bend twist or break. Ill build a hanger just like the rear.

What are you goin to do with the truck?

[84silverado]

This truck is only going to be bogged and swamped. No cars for it.

got parts ive been waiting on for 2 WEEKS today, 2-3 days my ass.... but now that i have them ill be able to make some progress and i should have the rear driveline all buttoned up or close to it by late saturday....the farm is taking up alot of time but the money is worth it!!

[84silverado]

made some progress this week. all i need to do now is finish up my steering and wire up my ignition. then i should be rooling, i have to get it rolling before friday the 25th and its starting to creep up fast! and who says you can run a married t-case in a truck like this lol gotta love having a bridgeport in the garage

[Blackout]

Holy caster angle! Gonna make it to jarmin's? Cant wait to see this thing run!

[84silverado]

I plan in being out there, gunna try the swamp lol

[84silverado]

got the ignition and everything hooked up and got it running. put'er in gear and let the shafts spin and it didnt hit anywheres. so i didnt have to shave nutten im happy about that. but all i have left to do it hook up my steering just waiting on my orbital valve...the only bad thing about today running it i found that my water pump is leaking from the weep valve on the bottom of it  so i gotta change that before its out. and take out all or most of my unwanted/needed wires under the dash.

[mud gremlin]

Man looks like u need a new seat hell ur going to b sitting in it alot

[mud gremlin]

O and u never no u may want to run over some ford cars maybe not now but later down the road never no

[84silverado]

Lol yea i could use a seat but im not worried bout it right now, ny future plans are to racing seats with harnesses.. Yea running over cars would be fun but that wont be for awhile

[84silverado]

Got my waterpump changed out and found out my radiator had a whole in it too so i changed that put for the spare i had so i should have no issues what so ever keeping cool this summer cause it lookin to be purdy hot outside all summer long.. But my orbital valve came in today also so i can finish up my steering and be done, then if i have time i might clean my dash up abit too
