Truck is on all fours now <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />



Those springs better settle a good 4inches...... if not I'm taking out a leaf to lower the front. The 3" body lift is coming out, btw (before i do shock hoops).

Tacked the crossmember on first, then put the axle in and set it down to check shackle angle. Notice the nice tight fit between the factory and TG crossmembers <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />


Shackle was vertical which is what it should be I guess since the springs are new:


Welded the crossmember on, getting better still with the welding - I'm happy <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cyclops.gif" alt="" />:


Dark pic, but this is how it sits now. Still gotta weld the back of the crossmember, shackle tubes, motor mounts. I am gonna get a FROR severe use front crossmember brace and weld that on, and do some additional bracing to the receiver tube.
