haha..yea....we were goofin off I'm gonna flip the hubs in the front to narrow it down..and change up the b.s. on the H1's
1. I have sold my -80 series axles, they just started to seem kinda "breakable", and I can't be having that.
2. My 3.4L is FOR SALE! So PM me if you are interested in it, I need to sell it so I can get some more parts
3. The 42's are starting to be questionable...I'm begining to lean toward the 47" LTB's
4. I also have a set of recentered H1's that I can no longer use(I'd like to keep the outer pieces so if you wanna trade a set of unmolested H1's let me know!

looks good......
are you gonna run air shocks??
shouldnt be too bad to get those brackets fabed up and those beasts attached
Tim has a good template for a flat top plate that bolts to the top of the Rockwell, a great mounting spot for your 3 & 4 links. See if he will let you copy it.
Here is what you truck is gonna look like with those rocks..... those are 52's

Lemme break it down for ya...
3.4L + FJ80 Axles + 42's = Justins right foot not being happy enough
355 Crate + FJ80 Axles + 42's = Lots of broken sheet!
355 Crate + Rocks + Whatever tire he chooses = right foot being happy and less chance of breakin stuff.

Last night I got the rear brake drums stripped off..won't be needing those for pinion brakes...The plan is to get the link brackets, air shock mounts, and the mohawk pans on the axle then sandblast it and paint it.
These brake drums are quite heavy..I figure they shed prob 50lbs per side
FJ-80 tierod end compared to my rockwell tre

Ok...update
Last night I changed the input shaft in this
I pulled the intake off 2 nights ago and put it in my blast cabinet and glass beaded to take the paint off of it...pretty nice once it cleaned up......... Edelbrock Preformer
Before
After
Tonight I pulled the output shaft out of a th350 that I bought the other day..actually I bought a NP203 and the th350 came with it
Tomorrow I'm taking the good(built) trans to a shop to have them check it out and swap out the output's(it currently has a output shaft for a 208 in it)
I've got to find an adapter plate to run this, I'll try to pick one up tomorrow
BLING! Edelbrock Valve Covers
Now I've got a dummy trans attached to the back of the 355 for mock up...this way I can build my engine mounts, trans mounts and mount up the doubler

whats the ratio in those monsters?
might sound stupid how does a pinion break work?
when do you predict the first wheelin for this beast?
how much is this thing gonna weigh?
and awsome build bro
