Havent really done a whole lot to it lately but been order some little odds and ends to finish getting parts for the lift and some little odd and end fittings and stuff for the front ARB.
Recharged the a/c in it today and the compressor stays on and it blows cool air but just doesnt seem like it should. Also with the compressor kicked on and your driving it it sucks so much power from the motor it feels like the brake are dragging. lol The freon will probably leak out also so I will probably be pulling all the a/c parts off and putting in a non a.c heater box to free up some room under the hood and have more room for when I decide to put on a York for the OBA.
Got some f-250 front brake lines for now with the lift, some spring perches for SOA, ARB air solenoid and various fittings for it.
Got my other 8.8 put together with the 4.56 gears setup and Aussie locker installed with some help from my buddy one day last week. Going to try to get the other front diff put together with the 4.56's and ARB one day this coming week. Also got to make some guessets for the axle drop brackets
So its slowly starting to come together. Going to swap the lift and front and rear ends all at one time since I will have it all tore apart.
The plans for the lift are just use the radius arm drop brackets and stock radius arms for now then Im going to get some DOM tubing and big heim joints and extend the radius arms, get some f-250 shock mounts,. Basically going to by copying the zimmerman guys mods for the most part to try to get it nice and flexy.
