pingpong Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 To me to build it right.. I would go al ford.. Find a 78-79 f250.. they have NP435/np205 combo... Use the axles as well... the front is just about a bolt in.. need to do high steer on the knuckles.. but they can machine those. The rear relocate the spring perches.. I know they say you have to relocate the gas tank.. but I know someone who did just what I described.. and he didnt. Build an anti-wrap bar for the rear.. and do a shackle reversal upfront.. if not.. your leafs will not last if you wheel hard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeepcoMJ Posted December 11, 2007 Author Share Posted December 11, 2007 thanks guys. if I get this thing though, it would be a cheap-a$$ build. I'd build it easy first, and upgrade later on if I feel the need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pingpong Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 That would be an easy build... I bought and stripped a 79f250 for 200 bucks last summer.. had all the above minus the engine :nuts: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeepcoMJ Posted December 11, 2007 Author Share Posted December 11, 2007 lol. yeah, BUT I don't have time for that kinda custom fab...I already know jeep systems pretty well and will probably just dump a HO motor in this and drop a dana 44 rear in and go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
