Sas'd lmm

[Forced lmm]

Just figured I would post a few pictures of my truck since I'm new to the page. I've had a lot of questions from others so figured this would be a good place for q&a. Here is after I got it a few years back, I leveled it with 33" toyo mts on lml wheels. I also did the cab lights

Thanks, anyone know how to upload the pics so you don't have to click on them?

I used an 08 Superduty axle with wfo concepts trans cross member and 4 link. I didn't want the added cost of coil overs so I used factory ford buckets and springs instead. The springs are 4" skyjacker coils and they ride great. I did everything I could to keep it clean and simple to give it a "factory" look

Looks good so far man. WFO makes some good sh!t.

Damn, you def made it look clean. Were the things you mentioned the only things you used from WFO concepts?

Man I'd love to do that to my lb7 some days perfect ride height right there:thumb: nice work man! What'd you do to get the axle to be 8x6.5 or is 8x170 still?

 

[Rancelot211]

How much did you have in the sas?

Have to get the unit bearings and rotors re-drilled....

If you don't mind me asking why did you go through the trouble of s sas to run 33's?

I can't believe how clean that thing is. Very nice man.

Thanks guys.

So from wfo I got
-cross member
-4 link
-drop pitman arm splined for gm box with ford drag link taper
-steering box brace
-track bar and engine cross over brace
-sway bar end links

Wfo has amazing products and there service is just as good

For the bolt pattern I had the front bearings re drilled to Chevy pattern since I had wheels. If I were to do it again I would of bought ford bolt patter wheels. The d60 is 3" wider then the stock AAM out back so I put spacers on it to match the track width. If I knew I was running soacers I would of just bought and adapter spacer.

Cost is hard to judge. I completely rebuild the exterior of the axle with all moog and ford unit bearings so it was not cheap. I would say I have $2k into rebuilding it and this is a cost that's not necessary I just wanted it to be new. All together I would say you could straight axle how I did for about $5-6k. That's doing all the work yourself and finding an axle at a reasonable price. I don't think this is bad because what do big fabtech, cst, or cognito kits go for??

The 33s was after I bought it. It now has 37s on 22x12s

I spent the money on these dual stabilizers but ended up not running them. The steering setup puts a lot of stress on the stock box. It has no power at a stop but once rolling it's fine. As of now it has no stabilizer and still cruises the freeway great. I did buy a new psc box and ram to put on it just haven't found the time yet. Another thing I would do if I were to do it again would be a high steer knuckle to keep the drag link and track bar flatter. As of now they are running 12 degrees

And here is a pic of how she sits. The front is on a 4" skyjacker lift spring and the rear of the truck has 7" of lift with block and add a leaf for now.

That install looks clean.

Here's another from the front. Wasn't able to find matching diff covers so I ended up pulling this off and going with g2s front and rear

Looks good. If you haven't done it yet. I'd recommend doing a steering box stabilizer or support.

I put one that has a sector shaft bearing and stiffens it to each frame rail

 

[blownblue]

Are you going to do a ram assist? Def takes some of the stress out of the frame/box

Just noticed your truck your from Washington what part?
