I am running 16.00 R20s on custom double beadlock rims with no lift.

Cool :)

Cool thanks :) Is the mechanical steering setup for crossover steering?

I kind of had a similar problem, but I did 2 things and it has been fine ever since. I had a leak at the HH so I replaced the 2 o-rings, and I had a dead in tank pump so I swapped it with another pump that worked. I am not sure which fixed the issue, since they were both done about the same time.

What are the steering and driveshaft mods required for this lift? Would like to see a lift kit about half that height :)

Do it! I love mine :) I picked up 2 m105 trailers and will swap my current 105 bed for one of the ones I just picked up (they are nicer) then start on paint :) I say go for it!

Does the owner of this site ever come here anymore?

Former Military Vehicle Owners - Index not alot of use but has some traffic and at least your want list will show up in google searches. No post requirement to create ads.

Just curious is there is any benefit in using the laytex. Also what color is that?

Yeah they are attention getters. There is a difference with the Deuce though, I have had cool looking big trucks that got stares, thumbs up, pics, points, etc. The difference to the trucks I have had and my deuce are the smiles the deuce gets. Everyone gets this huge grin when they see the...

I was going to add another piece, which is much thicker wall, from the bottom axle mount area all the way up to the shackle mount area. Essentially the current bottom link will act as the axle side brace, I will put another one toward the front end. I should be able to do it this weekend...

I like that, makes since since if you use the tractor links there is an extra rod end. I might have to copy that :)

If the modification doesn't work I will be starting over from scratch and will use mounts like Randydirt has which I can make the lower mount just under the axle.

Pretty much what I was planning on doing :) Do you mean run the lower bracket under the axle housing? Right now it is at the bottom when mounted to the front of the housing. If I end up rebuilding everything, I will try to get more distance between the two mounting points on the axle housing.

Ok I tested mine out. It worked beautifully while in 2wd in thick sand until....I climbed a small dune and bent the longside pipe. Schedule 40 that long will bend :) It isn't bent much, just a slight bend, but when it happened it started to wheel hop a little. Not nearly as bad as the wheel...

Nice brackets :)

LOL, just the ones on the lift block :) Be a stiff ridin SOB with all leaf packs welded together :)

Mine came with them, they look like a cut down spring pack. They seem to be welded to the housing and to themselves (the individual leaves).

Here is a little bit better pic. I also added another to that other link. Almost took it to the beach tonight, will probably have to wait till this weekend.

Bushings are mainly for the dampening (noises) and are cheaper, but in my case it was just cheaper to use them since I bought the tractor links. They were fairly cheap and aside from the trailer hangers and shackle, everything else I used was just crap I had around the garage. There is no...
