Worked for a few more hours today. Finished cutting off the IFS brackets, made the front spring hanger cross member and started mocking up placement of front springs and axle. Had to slap the front fender on for mock up purposes Slapped the rear tires/wheels on to find ride height. My ugly mug, I'm about 5'11"

Who says. I have seen alot of trucks with tires sticking outside of the fenders, hell most jeeps I see are that way. I plan on maybe running a small flare and mud flaps.

Bill, I'm not sure yet where the shackle for the rear of the springs will mount yet.
Rusty, no it won't even be close, I'm thinking by March hopefully.

I do need bigger jack stands, I'm going to have to put blocks under the ones I have so I can get the frame where I need it. I did end up cutting down those adjustable shackle mounts, look real close and you'll see that the front mount has 2 different mounting holes.
