Awwww.....come on guys.....you know I wouldn't hand you a case that easily....lol. We had the old car laying around in the back 40. It was cannabilized long ago and was really just a shell, but it sure was a fun time. I just figured once I put a video of somebody actually having fun in an...

Hey everybody. I got my front suspension done and have put about 200 miles on the truck with the 53's on it. With about 4" of lift and very minor fender trimming, I have not rubbed a tire yet. I put a video up on youtube of me testing out the strength of an old Lincoln Towncar that we...

Dang, now thats what I like to hear!!! I'll call my local spring shop today and see if they can make me a pair for the front. I never though lift perches were the best way to go, but I know stack frames and whatnot isn't the best thing either. Lift springs would be my first choice!!! I've...

I don't think the perch setup will be my weak point. If anything, it'll be that I'm only using One bolt to hold on each hanger.

Drop the spring perches and do what? bolt trailer frame to the bottom of the stock frame? How about stacking the frames? Seems like all of those commonly used options require unproven modification methods and risk. How about a realistic, affordable solution?

I completely understand your guy's opinion(s). I am using a design very similar to the original front perches, however, they go deeper over the axle tube and it would be virtually impossible for one to be "shot out" of the front. They are also only 2.5 inches taller than the original ones. I...

We did. Just enough so the perch would sit flush and square, then welded her on. I'm goinng to take it off road and beat the crap out of it, just to make sure it will handle the stress. Then I'll feel much safer running it up and down the road. Also, I had it weighed. M35A2C on 53's XZL...

THe pic above, is the 1.5" perch. I just asked them to make the distance between the top of the axle tube, and the spring, to be 4"

I haven't put the front ones on yet (the fabricator only sent half my order, wtf?) but the rears went on well and welded up great. However, when the fronts arrive, they will be going on. I have the 53's mounted right now and the truck doesnt rub at all since I ran the exhaust out the back, but...

I just lifted my deuce 4" by using custom spring perches made by ballistic fab. Worked well and I welded them to the axle tubes. much safer than blocks I believe. Thanks
