Nope, no body lift, just a dirty frame that needs a good cleaning!
 






Brakelines and shocks are ordered.

Just going to go from the existing hard lines to the caliper. Shocks will be Rancho RS5000s. Rear driveshaft should be in tomorrow.

Forgot that Saturday is "Thunder Over Louisville." It is a HUGE fireworks show that shuts down the bridge I need to cross to go to Attica, so I am cancelling that trip.

I think I may replace it with the Tellico trip in May. What weekend is it?

Gonna get the tranny crossmember done tomorrow and try to get some new u-bolts bent up in the rear to replace the overly large F250 ones that are back there now temporarily.

Holy ****, that looks awesome!

What are the chances of a coil spring coming out of the bucket with this setup?

Any word from the machine shop yet?

BTW: The tellico trip is May 10-12. You'll have to come now to see another one of your trucks in action.
 






heck.. by then... cory could hold an "SAS your explorer 101" seminar or class!

jeez.. i'm gonna like a substocker if all these SASers and cory show up.

I told them to send the brackets to show up Tuesday or Wednesday and I think they will. So I should have that done.

I am ordering up limiting straps too to make sure that the coils don't pop out.

I might have to make that Tellico trip. Where is everyone camping?
 












BUMP

Haven't talk with Cory in a few days, just wanted to see if he got my sliders welded, tranny cross member finished up, driveshaft put on the rear and the new ubolts!

You won't feel to bad Jason, my brother is coming with his 92 sport with 33" thornbirds. We won't make to much fun of you!! hahahaha, just kiddin bud!
 






you can make fun... just don't use my truck as a ramp to pose on. :p
 






Hey Jason, you won't be alone, I might have the truck lifted by this weekend, with new tires, so I might just take it off on the trails at Tellico with ya.
 






I know it dosent belong here...sorry, i will be more than happy to take if off if you would like me to Josh.

But Jason and Josh Adams, if either one of you have an empty seat when Tellico comes, I would be more than happy to put in a substantial amount for gas and all if I could ride with one of yall. Last trip was awesome and I would be very interested in seeing everyones trucks and more than that gettin to meet everyone. So if yall dont mind and have an empty seat i would be more than happy to take care of some gas.

Your X looks awesome Josh, congratulations!

And Kudos to Cory for doin an awesome job...i think you have about 16000 members in awe...
 






Hey Cory!

You still thinking of making a coilover kit so the rest of us can get an awesome SAS setup like that without driving the 2000 miles to come see you? Keep us updated!

Josh, looks great. Can't wait to do mine. Man, I keep wavering betweent he engine swap or the SAS. Which one to do first? I can't keep changing my signature... :confused:
 






Thanks guys. I would like to do an engine swap too, but it wouldn't do me a whole lot of good. I could do what cory has done to his, just use a C4 tranny and an atlas II, that would take me anywhere i needed to go.
