White Delight Solid Axle Swap

I wish this thing could wheel! I've been focusing on the rear. Gonna Notch the front leaf mounts into the frame. Had to move the gas tank so I'm emptying the sucker right now haha I sure don't like the taste of gas as much as the ole white Delight does anyways I had a minute to post some progress

 

Here's the shackles and the mounts. Random shackles to see how she sits then I will get the size I need

 

Nice job man!

 

Thanks dude I've got one side of the frame notched and tacked in! The shackles are welded too so it's time to fit the springs. Hope my measurements are right lol

 

This is some ridiculous work... well done man. To say this is impressive is a HUGE understatement.

 

Thanks man! It's awesome to see what you guys think of the whole thing! Most the time I just want to push it off a cliff and light er up at the bottom. Someone's gotta enjoy it right?! haha It's getting closer!

 

So I finished the power steering the other night. The left side (high pressure to the pump) is a number 6 fitting 59" long I believe. The right fitting (low pressure side) is an adapter I had to buy from psc part number (PSCSF07) it's a 17mm (Pump side) to 1.5 adapter then I got a barb clamp for a 3/8 hose 67" long and ripped er in there! No clamp required apparently. Then I just hose clamped it on the reservoir side. P.S. It's getting cold so I bought chains. Jk this is how I'm going to flex this puppy because all I have is a track hoe.

 

Awesome build makes me wonder if I should've gone with a solid axle instead.

 

Sub'd

 

Your build is looking awesome. Great work there man. Love it.

 

I been slacking this last week or so but I did get a couple things mounted and ready to rip

 

Looking good What spring rate did you go with?

 

King sent me some springs from a chart they had. Said it would work, so it's a 250 lb 16" up top with a 350lb 15" on bottom. They set it up weird with the bigger spring on top. Then the spacer is upside down but easy fix. I'm aint sure how it rides yet.

 

Awesome looking rig man!

 

Oh well that kinda sucks, easy fix tho. I'm going with (2.0x12") 200lb 12" over 250lb 14" Still waiting on more parts Can't stop watching your build

 

Oohhh man! That's heaven right there! How you mounting them rear dampeners?! I ordered a kit from bamf (unwelded) that looks like this. My plan is to make it a little different so I can fit 14" kings. What's your take

 

Today I pulled the driver side header and figured what the heck these things are ugly and I got a Credit card so cha Ching. lol I ordered a set of pro tuning lab headers, see how they do.
