Dana 60 being installed under my 91

[RockRanger]

Any updates on this? Also are there any pictures of the upper link mount on driverside frame rail. Was laying under mine trying to figure out how to fit one arund the driveshaft.

I have pulled the steering pump and box and delivered them to Benchworks to have them upgraded
They will rebuild the pump and change it to a higher output. The box will be rebuilt and ported to run a steering ram. I will be picking up the ram this week.
I will not be working on the week in-between X-mas and New Years and my plan it to finish the suspension and steering. By the middle of January I want to be on the trail. We will see

I have Ricks old rear bumper and I am having a front one built they should be done to meet my schedule.

I will test it out a bit then make any changes and hopefully before the Serious Explorations run in March I want to have a rollcage.

Can't wait to see how awesome these D60's are gonna look on the trail.

How long till we see some pics?

A little progress,

Front bumper is nearly complete in moc-up form.
Purchased a like new Superwinch
Had Dunbar Spring duplicate Ricks rear springs

I just need to piece it all together.

I will make the EXPLORER RUN!!!!!

Rear springs are in, need to set pinion angle and weld the perches. That 60 is pretty big and I might need to re-locate the fuel cell. I will need to fab some bananna shackles. I am hoping that the guys can start on my front end today.

[Rick]

You still around Hammer??

 

[Hammer]

I am still here. New job that includes 12 hours of dealing with idiots :fire:
Went to the fab shop last night to work on the race truck, nothing new on my truck but we did sit down and put together a plan to get the thing moving.
I bought another mustang. A 90 police interceptor. I am going to build a drag car. I have not been able to go 4wheeling might as well start drag racing.
I hooked up my paint manager and Matt to trade some work. Matt did a spring over conversion, shackle reversal, new driveshafts and slip yoke eliminator kit on a 91wrangler. In trade he gets his Bronco completley stripped down, body work done and painted.
Thats about it.

wow a 90 stang interceptor....oooh thats a fun project.

I am always willing to trade work for body work and paint too

Someday the Ex will run again?!?

You don't need another project Hammer... You need to get that Explorer done!!
