Those with Leaf sprung SAS front ends
if you have nearly all the parts, the frame of the truck clean, and the axle rebuilt it wouldnt take more than a day or two to finish up.
and when i mean parts i mean just parts nothing assembled. (links and such)
I am not interested in helping with a leaf spring setup. LOL sorry

Better just bring your ranger and f150 along cause you wont want to go back home lol
i hear it rains a bunch out there.
Yeah that's true.... If I can afford it, I'll buy your ticket and Shane and I will take you to Brown's Camp OHV... Nationally known off road park... You'll **** when you see what some people have...
It does rain, but most of the time, I find it enjoyable... I love the rain...
Never really gets hot or uncomfortable here either... Rain keeps my allergies down... Which are out in full fleet right now due to lack of rain lol

but i think zbeard and 99ranger4x4
both need to come out to the hammers
oh and air shocks being cheaper are a bad idea they unload like a ****
they blow the seals faily easy there fore being useless iv seen it happen lots of times plus the get shock fade really quick
I've heard mixed things about airshocks.
Hammers is on my todo list, believe me.. after a built 60 front and ballistic 9 rear. Zach doesnt like intentional body damage so i wouldn't hold your breath for him

i dont deny they may unload real bad. but I've heard mixed things about the fade.... buttt the few buggies I've seen and rode in didn't seem to have an issue with fade.

Aight Mr. Beard... From another thread you mentioned linking the front... and it really has me wanting to do it to my ranger to finally MAYBE get this BISH on the road....
SO... say I wanted to 3-link my 95ranger.... High pinion D44... BUT, what if I didn't want to go coilovers or airshocks... The springs I have now work AWESOME, can I go from a radius arm setup to a 3-link and still use the same coils, I realize the coil mount will probably have to be reworked.... How much $$ do you see it costing to go from a radius arm setup to swapping in a 3-link set up?? I have a feeling most of my problem is my trac bar, so do 3-links require a trac bar... if so I guess that's more $$ too...

Sorry Ford Radius arm... all stock stuff per say... yea it's relatively 'easy' and the parts to do it aren't expensive.... 300 ish on the joints, some tube, and link mounts... but gosh at the labor charges for shops to do the stuff

Actually need to start the truck up today to mow around it so I will snag some pictures... i'm either gonna have to hack/rebuild the engine crossmember, or I will have to do a serious bent bar set up! And I'm not sure my lil 110v welder will be strong nuff!
