-'79 Ford 9"

-Mini-spool
I finially got sick of the IFS(Independent Fu*ked suspension) I was tired of the no-flex and wanted something a little beefer.

When i get done im going to run the 35's for a while and im going to run some 37'MTR's when i get the money.Also i will finailly! be swapping in my 1354.

First off i say this wouldnt be possible without my friend morris. He is helping me do this and i really appreciate it.(thanks man).

So far i have the the rear sprung over and i am in the process of dissasembling the front.The gears are being installed and my axles are being rebuilt as i speak. I will post more pics as soon as i get them and keep you all updated. Here is one that i could get of the d44. More pics will be up later tonight hopefully.Feel free to ask questions as i will.

How is it street legal with no speedo?

 

[Vozar]

well i was pulling a code which wouldnt let me pass emissions because of the VSS sensors(speedo). I got the diablo chip and they programed it to delete that code in my comp. I dont have a speedo but they dont know that . I am cautious and i dont haul ass around town anyways. 11 inches of lift, and no front and rear swaybars also keeps me to drive a little slower .

If your tachometer works, then you have a speedo.

Its a saginaw box from a 79 bronco. It should work for u on the outside of the frame rail. I believe my ac pump is right where yours is too. The only really challenging thing is to get the stock steering shaft to work. I beleive we shortened mine and welded the old r&p connection to the bronco box so the shaft would work. I have only one problem from that setup though, the rubber boot on the shaft rubs on my brakelines in there. Ill get some more pics today,


Matt

Can you get a picture of the clearance between the steering box and the A/C pump...I picked up a 79' Bronco box rebuilt at Autozone (the only junkard was in PA) and I didn't cut out the upper A frame brackets yet, but this box looks like it's going to hit the A/C pump. Unless I mount it off the frame rail using 5/16 angle iron and secure that to the frame rail.

A pic would be appreciated though!

Thanks.

Man nice X. What snorkle did you have to order or did you just fab one up. I am looks at using pieces from a 4-runner and some 3" PVC. I am looking at doing a Dana 60 f&r. Just because i want full width.

Click the link in my signature to get detailed pics of how the snorkel is put together. I think you're looking for 2-1/2" Electrical PVC conduit for the tubing. Snorkel head you can get from www.ok4wd.com.

[Vozar]
