What is the acceptable way to post pics here?
I use FB as a vehicle/host for pics.

100% of personal pics I upload here I use FB Messenger.


EXAMPLE:
1) When I post a pic on the "...where you are right now" thread, I go to Messenger and grab a pic I texted to a buddy/son/friend, etc.

2) Click on pic to get URL

3) Post said URL/pic

4) Profit :flipoff2:

Welp, I'm about to dig this out of my field and start working on it I think. 1996 F250. Picture is from 5 years ago when I picked it up with a blown 460 in it. I have a carb'd 460 to go in it...ZF5 truck too. I have a KP D60 for the front. Want to shorten the wheelbase and shoot for 38-40's with whatever lift the D60 swap/shackle reversal gives me. I'm too poor for a real suspension...so it will stay on leafs.

Here's a few more of the steering shaft I made. I wasn't spending the money for a Borgeson or Flaming River. At Speedway I got all the parts I needed for $50. Now it has real u joints at the yokes. You might be able to tell its sitting on hummer tires now too with no lift.

Well, I've been lurking for a bit on here so figured I'd intoduce myself. I enjoy the off-road scene (obviously) and own a few toys.

1st is a 1971 F250 Camper Special. This is a restomod that is not for off pavement. So I'll just leave it at that.
2nd is a 1972 F250 CrewCab Custom. The previous owner did a 2wd to a 4x4 conversion using the drivetrain and axles from a 91 F350. So a 351W, C6, BW1356, Dana60 HP kingpin with Sterling 10.25. and 40's. I've done a complete rewire, vintage air AC, bucket seats up front and added hydro assist on the front. Drives well now, but needs a new fuel tank and the brakes done.
3rd is an FJ Cruiser with a 3" lift, 35's, 4.88's and lockers (e-locked rear, ARB front). Need the aux fuel tank next and supercharger as at 6K ft elevation it's a dog. Especially towing our off-road teardrop we just got.
DD is an 18' Kia Stinger GT2 AWD. If I take it easy I get 30 mpg on average. Not to shabby for a fun DD.
Wife has a 17 Forester XT. I keep trying to convince her to put a 2" lift on it with some AT's and method wheels as she's not the best driver and runs over everything.

Here's the CrewCab as I'm sure everyone is excited about it.

I scored 6 of them,new never mounted,on ebay a few yrs ago for my dually F350. Traded the dually to my son for the red 97 F350 and he didn't want the tires...so I've got 2 spares,LOL.

That's how I want to set up the rear dually axle on my Bronco.

Cool rig! Im doing a similar set up myself and collecting parts. On the zf5/203 are you running a divorced style set up? Or were you able to marry the two?
