i might have just missed it but is that bar wielded to the side of the fender to be a fender flare or for a future exo cage.

There is nothing happening at the moment... haha! In the tear down mode at the moment.

As a side note, the rear end will be getting a 35 spline spool, some 4340 and some 35 spline drive flanges for the 14 bolt outers. Shouldn't have a problem with the rear end after that! I will be doing high-steer on the front, have been doing a lot of research on them. I will be leaving it unit bearing, much better and cleaner for trail use. As soon as my D44 is gone, I will be starting on the 60.

Well, here's some updates. Got a buttload of parts to deal with again... haha! Picked up my Super Duty Dana 60, got a Detroit for said 60, got me some tires, got some headers from my buddy for the 4.0, got some air bumps for the front end, and my new rear end showed up too!

The 60


The Spidertrax fabricated 9" and 14b outers. Thanks Andrew!


The headers


Air bumps


My new tires! Wooooo!



And to top it off... I picked up a new tow rig! 03 Super Duty, crew long dually FX4 Lariat. Ridin' in styyyyyyle! :headbang:


Will be starting work on the Ranger as soon as I get the bodywork done on my old diesel, then she goes up for sale! Then the Ranger gets my full, undivided attention. :D

What brand bumps did you go with? FOA, SAW....? I've been looking at the FOA ones. For $150 each WITH a can, you can't really go wrong

You can tell by the door badge its a 6.0. But yes, head studs were done. EGR was never done but that isn't hard to do. Will be doing EGR delete, oil cooler, stage one injectors, exhaust and intake.

They are a company called Rock Equipment. Small company but great quality.
