I was a little worried about it untill the guy showed me a divorced t case and 36's with rally wheels AND the driveshafts I need hahaha. He's giving it all to me. So the only thing that'll be a little different is trying to find a place to mount the transfer case.

Mount it were ever you want. just make you up a little crossmember and bolt it to both fram rails. what divorced case is it?

If its free, go for it... I wouldn't buy it though.

If your trying to do it on the cheap fab your own front end up. it's pretty simple if you know how to cut and weld.

I would get shocks too. You may incounter a terrible death wobble for not setting it up correct.

Shock choice is all matter of opinion, lots of people around here (my locale) praised rancho, and bilstein, but I found a good price on fox shocks that were rebuildable for about $100 more than a set of bilsteins.

Just memic Klitch's set-up and you'll be golden.
