Looking good!! I do have one question though regarding your fab'd coil spring "spacers".... Did you weld them in or are that just sitting in the coil 'cups'? I think I'd maybe consider welding them down in case you get a bit rambunchious in the dunes, they might jump out of their cups??? Maybe not a issue/problem....... Ryan

The guy is right about the driveshaft angle. You will bust something trying to run it like that. The only way i see is to add a double cardan joint to the front like an early Bronco uses. Top the suspension completely out to the limits of the shocks and then add about 2" for bushings compressing. Make sure brake hoses and steering linkage and driveshaft splines and U joints all are free of bind.
