one thing about a front shackle is the way the axle handles a "stand up". If the axle drops hard in a hole its flex must force it up instead of back, which is easier on shackle strain. The front shackle will "stand up" and easily, depending on impact force, cause the back main-leaf to bend because it cannot push back. Many make the mistake of learning that the hard way. leaf springs are always limited in their movement by shackle length. Too much, as you know, will cause caster problems.
I believe all the factory V10 super duty and excursion trucks came with 4:30 gears so that could be a good cheap and easy to find upgrade. I'm curious though what the trick is to finding a factory equipped e locker in the 10.5 because that would be the cheap setup to have for running the super duty axles.
Amazing, love that custom shifter. Build me one of these rigs!
I would like one of these but with a 1988 Buick LeSabre estate wagon body and 1986 Chrysler Laser electronics.
good job boys ;)
Baddest ranger ever!! WOOOOOOO
I like the shifter mod ;)

Air down to 12 psi and it will climb better but thats an awesome build i wish i had those axels to put under my suburban
I got a91 s10 trying to put bigger axle on it what should I go with
I am legimately curious as to what this project cost to build
Extreme budget build came in under $6K. 🤘
Even though I didn’t see the bikini girl anywhere in the video I still watched the whole thing. Very good build.
Sweet. Needs 40s Lol.
