No cool pics to post, but I've been working on it. I've got the motor stripped, cleaned, and re-painted (used the New Ford Gray). I've got to borrow 744x4's cherry picker and get it mounted on the frame - got the West Coast Broncos motor mounts during the Classic Broncos mass buy deal. After that I'll get the tranny & t-case cleaned, painted and mounted.
Carl - I got a set of 39.5 Iroks. I debated b/w 39.5 and 42's, but decided on the 39.5's. I bought them yesterday at the 4WheelParts Truck Fest in Atlanta, but have to pick them up in Charlotte sometime.
Chuck - I talked to Crawlin69 from N. Cali about how he set his front 60 up using the same Cage weld on brackets. I think he has talked me into cutting the inner C's and rotating them to achieve the best of both worlds - caster and pinion angle. Sounds like a PITA, but we'll see.
I'm waiting on Jack's (Ironbender) rear link system to be completed and will probably end up using that in the rear (depending on cost compared to Poly's kit).
