Some pics

Here is my small pic whore. Hope you enjoy.



These were taken when I still had a crappy shackle angle in the rear (20 degrees) and with the 4" TC springs up front. I have since fixed the shackle angle (55* to 65*) and am in the process of 57's up front tell me what you think.

I am 5'8"

Temporary fuel tank (am ordering a cell next month

What springs are in the rear on those pics?

Looks like you need longer rear shackles.

What did u do with your fuel filler mounted way up like that? I'm interested in doing the same thing.

Nice flex Shaun!
HIJACK..... I got all that fuel injection stuff you sent me working fine. Just breaking in the new motor.

I did the same thing with my gas tank...put the filler up above the factory filler through the body. (second pic look above the factory filler)


By the way...NICE flex

Is the rear wheel so far back because you lengthened the wheel base?

This is what he posted when I questioned about 63 swaps.

I finished my 63 swap yesterday. I left the front mount alone. I moved the ord 4" shackle flip bracket all the way to the end of the frame. Where the frame starts to curve down and the bumper brackets are. I will take pics have a between a 55 and 65 degree angle and it rides awesome.

Thanks MArk. I am glad that the TBI stuff worked out for you. I hated it but am missing it on hill climbs. They are 63's mounted as far back as the rear mount will go. I havent touched the front hanger. I need longer shackles. I am thinking about 2" longer than the stock 88-98 shackles. The rear shock mounts are done and the fronts will bhe done tonight when I finish the spring swap. (57's up front)

The tank is now mounted on top of the frame and havent figured out what to do with the fuel fill (I will probably do like k5 newbie)

I will post update pics this weekend after the swap.
