Ok. So I've got a questions because I was thinking about this yesterday actually. Since you have coilovers for suspension, are the torsion bars removed?

Also what type of coilovers are those?

 

You bastard that is SWEET!!!

 

those are QA1s and no torsion bars.

 

Bro u are a GOD! One day i hope to see this truck in person.

 

Clearance looks a LIIIIIIIITTLE tight between that coilover and your half-shaft... lol.

Phenomenal build Nick! Can't wait to see the finished result!

 

i need to clean my shorts.....my front end just exploded

i was thinking that the fender wouldn't fit with the exhaust piping, but i saw the pictures the farther i went down!

 

Looks good Nick

 

So I hate to be picky, but any chance we could get some more details about that coilover conversion up front?

Was it just simply remove the torsion bars, weld the tabs ons for the coilovers, mount the hoop on, and mount the coilover onto the stock control arms?

I'm guessing those are the stock control arms. Also, what did you use for Parts in terms on the coilover? What size spring did you end up choosing? 225 lb spring?

Lots of questions I know, but I'm really curious about it. Can't wait to see the test results on this once you are done. It should be pretty bad *** to see this thing in action.

Man between you and D... my road racing Ranger craving is going to get out of hand and I've barely even started on my SAS project...

 

last i knew he switched to a 650lb spring the front of rangers and the angle coil over is at makes the spring rate to be higher. still not sure if the 650s will be enough.

they are either a 10" or a 12" coil over nick can confirm.

stock control arms upper and lower.

i made the brackets for the lower arm and upper coil over mount, not all sure what he did to it after he got it. ill let Nick fill in the rest. I just supplied those parts. lol

 

Awesome! Can I drive it?

 

+1!

 

looks like crap.....

if it where opposite day

 

I know Im a little late on this but whoa crap!!! That is looking like some awesome work Nick....that is just sick

 

Man that thing is awesome, I have to make it down there sometime to see it.

 

lolololol im really late on this but,

I AM IN AWE! The truck looks sooooooo good bro.

honestly im amazed.

build me a turbo kit.

 

damn Nick.. This is one badass way to take the truck. If i were to put tons of money into making the perfect street ranger..well i'll see it when yer finished!

 

Wow... Just freaking awesome! What you doing with the S/C?

Sorry it has taken so long for me to respond... I have been extremely busy. Single turbo setup, im keeping the supercharger for some ideas, the suspension parts beard made me were close, but I had to do some modifications to them and its not just a "weld it in" setup.

D, the transmission has been built by the best and im really not too concerned with the front diff at this point. I launched this thing in 4wd when i had my 31s on it, supercharged, and a few other things done to it... It wheel hopped pretty badly(yes all 4 tires) and i thought i was going to be eating wall, but it didnt seem to do much damage. Im not saying im going to be doing that often, but how hard is a front diff to come by????

Thank you all for the compliments and I hope to have more soon!!!

 

I hope to see more soon! Also thanks for making my truck suck that much more every day!

 

haha, thats not cool, dont put ur truck down!

 

I know I am just messin!

 

damn Nick... i don't even know what i'm looking at anymore, and i'm still jealous, lol.


its funny... ill be sitting here looking around online at different performance packages and stuff for my truck, and then i'll tell myself, "save your money"


...then i look at this thread and wonder "would Nick want to work on an F150...and if so... how much money do i have" lol....


very nice work man!

 

Where's the rest of your front crossmember?

 

sweeeeeet! damn dude im speechless...
