I bought the truck 2 1/2 years ago. I paid 3500.It came lifted with 8 inch springs front and back. (It rode horrible) It also came with a 383 (or so I was told) it ran really good and still does so i haven't really touch it besides a tune up and new headers and exhaust. It was a fuel injected truck but now has a carburetor. The 14 bolt and dana 60 were already in it. I was told the rears have 513 gears. The 60 was locked up but I freed it with a pipe wrench and cleaned it up real good. (Change the oil every time I took it out for the first 4 times) It has worked for me every time I needed it. The hose adapter for the vent was missing and must have filled with water. The 208 has the slip yoke eliminator. The 700 r4 shifts into second hard (sometimes) but it works for now. I put the frame repair brace from ord and the steering box brace. This November I finally had enough money aside to order the custom springs from ord the 2 1/2 shackle flip, 6 super shackles and fush kit. I sand blasted and painted the frame and installed the new lift in the beginning of dec. While installing the front I noticed the perch was cracked and I still needed shocks so the build came to a halt. (With xmas coming and 2 kids money gets tight) After the holiday passed and money was there I order the perch ,shocks and upper shock towers and installed them last friday night and Saturday morning. I have ripped around town a couple times and am really impressed with ride on the road so far. This weekend is the test in the woods. The picks you see are me trying the figure out where to put my bumpstops but couldn't really get the spring that close to straight and it was getting late. The 5th pic is when I just bought it and last is a little before she went in for the new springs. Sorry so long.

Do you have any experience with zero rates in the front? I was weary about it but was told it would be fine
