The best kind of Ford is one that is cut in half!!

j/k Some of them are......o k.......I guess.

fiction fab · 11-15-2009, 08:28 PM

Here you go draggindime, this what i got so far.
Test fit the DJM control arms and spindle.

Modify the lower arms for the bags.

Got rid of those pesky spring pockets.

Re-test fitting the control arms.

Now i just have to copy the same thing to the other side.

curt_minke · 11-15-2009, 11:24 PM

looking good

Br&on's Z · 11-15-2009, 11:42 PM

Looking good so far. Those are some nice welds on that lower control arm! From the other stuff you've posted up you do nice work. Keep the pics coming!

1baggeds10 · 11-16-2009, 01:39 AM

WOW BEN!!!! amazing as usual! oh and nice seeing you at the big bash on Saturday! ass!!!... lol

draggindime072010 · 11-16-2009, 01:51 AM

damn it lol my laptop screwed up so im on my wii.
i can only see two of those pics.

what size wheels and tires will be on this thing

fiction fab · 11-16-2009, 02:28 AM

I know he's running 24s. but not too sure on what size tire. I would guess 295/30/24 or 305/30/24??

draggindime072010 · 11-16-2009, 06:06 PM

i just to run a 20 inch wheel are the control arms still needed or can i modify the stock ones to work.

and since you cut the spring pocket off where does the bags mount on top?

For 20's without a massive tire, you are ok just notching the lower control arm, notching for the tie rod and using the stock arms.
This is the best pic I have, but it laid on stock rubber (not sure on the diameter, but larger than a 245/40/20.

I have some other pics here, but most are of the balljoint flip.

That pic pretty muck shows what i was going to do. I ordered the upper bag plates today, should be here tomorrow. Today i just did everything i did yesterday and cut off the other rocker.

Oh ya. And cut off the frame horns.

fiction fab · 11-17-2009, 02:13 AM

Man. That stand holding up the control arms doesn't look too sturdy does it?

draggindime072010 · 11-19-2009, 02:10 PM

thanx for the pics man your doing a great job with this.

i cant wait to see it layed out.

Driveway Kustoms · 11-19-2009, 02:52 PM

i think you have some cutting ahead of you for those fenderwells lol

fiction fab · 11-21-2009, 08:21 PM

Well today my bandsaw stopped working. Found out the switch burt up. Couldn't find one arond town, so i ordered a new one from the welding shop. Sucks cause most of the stuff i need to do i need the saw. So instead i went to look @ the new motor for the truck. 5.4 supercharged!!
But tomorrow i think im going to do channeling(???)

MajesticLT03 · 11-21-2009, 10:36 PM

what would look insane is putting the 2010 F-150 front end on this project
