d44 solid axle swap / sterling 10.25 / restoration
Russo your new sig pic is looking good, that truck looks nice lifted
and status on the truck: Spring time I have a ton of body work, engine work and a bunch of other little stuff. Super slowly cleaning up an 86 d60 that will get most likely 4.88 gears, possibly locked, and I will be going coil sprung unless I find a good price on some used coil overs. Still cant figure out if Im doing radius arms, 3 link or parallel 4 link. Rear is staying leafs but changing to chevy 63's and a shackle flip when I relift and do stuff over. Hoping to end up with a much more capable rig, softer suspension, some more travel and in the end better for all around off roading. Aiming for 8-10" lift and 38-42's
Looks about right
ttb was certainly not designed for offroad obstacles, glad to say it's not one of my problems. Can't wait to say rust and a junky engine aren't one of my problems but that's another story

The amount of ideas flowing in my head drive me nuts. Just fix this 302(maybe throw gt40 heads and a few other little things) vs swapping to a 351 or if Im going to do all that why not just do a 460. Then suspension - coil or bite the bullet on some used coil overs and then what 3 link parallel 4 link or just do the extended radius arms similar to 05 + superduty with adjustable top link (leaning toward the ra's because I think I want to start cutting down costs) and then I have some serious body work to do. I put up a thread for some help on that in the apperance section for body but no hits yet. But yea, lots of fun in my future
I feel the same way about the SAS for my truck so many options i just dont know what to do. But your problem is way more comlicated haha, my friend had a 460 in his like 90 f250 until he blew the motor driving it home(which he bragged about for some reason).
Actually had a thought for a 7.3 idi for a while because I almost had a free one available but things fell through. For some reason Im stuborn as hell and wont get a 250/350 and have the nice hefty frame because I need an f150 for some reason. Some one wanted to trade me an f250 for this and I could just coil the f250 and bob the bed but I haven't decided yet




you would have all you need in one truck!
