Rest of my parts showed up. The DIY4x stuff is really nice. Got some angle 1/4 iron to attach the front hangers.

Rain started again as I go the front up and blew off few more parts.

Will need to drop the sway bar and found it already has a raised steering arm. The 4in springs are about 2-3in under the mounts with the new springs right on the frame.

I like it, diff and a history of the owner.

The other NTBD lift is Cognito, the lift I had. Their knuckles are also formed and welded with just a 1/2 inch spacer.

Were Fox shocks part of the package?

Tools are always cool. Does it bolt up like it should and checked runout?

Yours look better. Simple fix was a few washers.

Looks like it is on backwards, wrong side.
You think?
It aligns with the factory LCA in this manner. A raised boss on the control arm aligns with the shorter shoulder, so I was thinking this was the right way. Anyway, I pulled it off, and switched it around and it still was not allowing the LCA to rise without pushing this thing outward. Something is not right with it...

If I remember don't these come off and replaced by smaller ones for more travel?

When I did simunitions I did empty a mag on a guy with a shotgun. They asked why, said he didn't drop the gun and hadn't hit the ground yet.  :cheesy:

Paintball and Simunitions don't have an impact like a real round.

No it is from Lifetime, carried by many stores and US MADE!

I like the 28, haven't seen that yet!!!! Lists for $99, 30 less than the 55. Figure $70 at wally but you can order on site now for $99.

With my ankle surgery I was told 6 months to a year to get back to normal. It really took 2 years and now at 3 I actually feel pretty good. Now mine was a full rebuild (bones, tendons and such), not soft tissue only.

Good luck either way.

Yep, with the price of some parts now it doesn't make sense to rebuild.

Main thing is your happy with the setup, showing us the step or not.

Is there a way to decipher a 500 from the top? What model of cars did they come in?

There’s an old fleet wood with a complete engine at the junkyard here.


Is the build sheet there? Maybe in the truck on the seat back?

Wow, you got far! At this rate the lift will be on tomorrow.

I am no expert, but aren't you supposed to mate the halfs, set backlash and then check the pattern through the hole?

Made some goo progress and broke a few things? Guess since it is pressed on your are not going to make setup bearings?

Looking at your lift picture reminded me of why I went with the Cognito lift. Spacers were just 1/2" vs what looks like 1"+ you have there. Just a personal preference to keep it narrow.

Watched a couple setup vids, like to see you do it!

Ordered new front hangers, new rear frame hangers and some J shackles since the axle is moving forward. So much for saving on the shackles, but puts me where I need to be later too.
