its quite a bit of work trying to make everything fit. My trackbar wouldnt fit in the front side of the axle due to my high steer and the fact im putting hydro assist on as soon as i get the ram. So i made a new bracket and put it on the back side of the axle now i have to get my trackbar bent so it wont hit anything on full stuff.but its well worth it i cant wait to get this thing out on some trails

Can you say Super FLEX. That thing is goin to flex like a beast.

I can't wait to see some pics of it out on the trail. Excellent job so far. Keep us posted. I just sold a set of scout D44s. I was goin to use them but they had 3.07s in them. The rear did have a posi-trac though. My uncles old scout that they came out of had a 345 in it so I got stuck with 3.07s. O well. D44s come a dime a dozen around here. It won't be much longer and mine will be under major reconstruction.

Man this is a great thread. I am thinking about doing this also. Doesn't look terribly hard.

Where did you find your spring buckets?

looks great good job.

Just saw this but you have your spring sliders on upside down. Might not be an issue for you since you have tenders to keep everything together but in my case I would hang the primary spring on the bottom of the shock body at full droop.

Thats how poly performance put them on for me when they assembled the springs ill see how it works and if i need to ill fix it. Thanks

well ive been having problems with my fuel injection and im getting sick of replacing a part here and a part there to try and get it running right . So i decided when i get my tax return im gonna go ahead and fork out some cash and put a 5.7 hemi in this thing. I dont really need that much power but what the hell, I think im gonna ditch the 8.8 and 44 aswell and go with a spidertrax 609 front, and 9 rear. Im not sure which tranny im gonna use yet but im thinking the nv4500 with an atlas 4sp. tell me what you guys think.

**ErikJordan** · 01-01-2009, 02:11 PM

609 eh? found any deals out there on one of those, or are you going g to build your own?

**JJ-4** · 01-01-2009, 02:27 PM

im gonna build my own
