Thanks man

also john urs is the baddest Sport trac ive seen

I have to agree, its the baddest and the only Sport Trac that I have seen with lift and tires on it. What do you plan on doing for the front?
 






Limited Ex - Your truck looks great! For some reason I love the black wheels. :D

I wouldn't work on the front if I was you.
You aren't that raked, and when you load up a bunch of stuff in the rear for a trip, that will even it out. And/or if you get a steel heavy multi-carrier bummper in the rear, that will probably bring the rear down a little too.

Cya,
John
 






Thanks John
I might would consider leaving the front, and you have some good points too, but I already have the front suspension getting powdercoated, then I just have to get it installed. I am thinking though that the rear will still sit noticably higher because I am running the Warrior Shackles. That and I figure that once the springs go in the front, if they do like the Superlift ones did, they will settle 1/2 to 1". :rolleyes:

Thanks guys. There are other lifted big tire Sport Tracs, they just don't post much or belong to this board.

No solid plans for the front right now.
But, this SOA gives me significant clearance then what I had before. I'm getting tired of layin frame when following other 4x4's around. :D
 






Hey Limited, what did you use to flip the back? New spring perches or flip bracket?
 






I used the Superlift relocation brackets. They are kind of like new perches, except they do not "require" welding, but its still a good idea to get them welded. There are pics of them in my photo gallery.
 






Limited ex, Where did you get your SOA Brackets and how much did you pay for them. Also What length shocks are those?

One more thing. Any rear driveline vibrations with you SOA?

I bought the brackets off a guy that was selling them on here awhile back. From what I have heard, if you buy them new, they are a little pricey. And the shocks, I do not know what length they are, but they are what came with the 4" Superlift. And as far as driveline vibration, I have not noticed anything at all, and I have already been down the highway with it with no problems at all. Just need to get the brackets welded to the axle, they shift back and forth under quick breaking and acceleration.
