well got the axles and chassis today for this thing.dont feel good and i do hope i can get the chassis back together and axle,leafs mounted under it.the chassis is a little wide for the leaf spring mounts.will have to make new cross members for it i guess.

got a litle bit done to this thing today.chassis put back together.it was taken apart for shipping.:( mounted leafs,axles locked,and just noticed this chassis has been cut off on the back of rails.





rear axle just sitting under it.chassis is a little too wide for leafs on rear.going to have to 4 link it i guess.wheelbase isnt quite right either.

keep it leafed and shorten the brace in the back of the chassis and bend it in a little if you have to!

might just do that.hate to bend it,but it has already been cut off the rear rails anyway,so....

will have to move hangers back 3/4" also,drill/tap new holes to accomidate them then.i do love leafs though,so i guess i will do that.will see if i cant take care of that part tommorrow.

and my t-case is supposed to be here tommorrow also i hope.tracking says it is 5 hrs away,but with USPS they are slow.i can drive and get it quicker than they can get it here from there.lol

ok took your advice.

got t-case mounted,chassis rails bent inwards on back,moved leaf hangers back 3/4" on back to work with wheelbase.
