Well,
We've got the replacement mounts welded to the frame and are getting ready to complete Rust Guarding the whole thing. The next step will be to put the axles back up underneath the frame and attach the radius arms, and springs. This thing should end up with a mild 2 1/2" lift when it's done. Does anybody have a recommendation for shocks which aren't going to break the bank, but give a fairly good ride? I've not found any specifically for the lift range I'm looking at. Have found stock height or 4.5" +. Contemplating Bilstein 5100 series. If somebody has something lying around in good condition which would work, I might be willing to buy them, or trade. Thanks. I'll post pics once we have it rolling again.
