With the new cross member all welded in place, I can cut off the rest of the frame forward. I will be fabing the new frame rails from 6"x2"x.250 wall steel. I will also be adding some extra length to run Ford Superduty length springs...

Thanks!

I have been keeping fairly good notes and drawings and was even thinking of making a jig so I could duplicate this stuff... :wink:

Hey avgf250...

Can this be done? Have you done this before? AA makes an adapter for the 31 spline 205 input, but not having looked at the inputs (or measured)... which would be the stronger of the two?

Thanks!

HRDROKN,

with that 80 in the back and that D60 in front i think you're building a bumpside monster for sure! :thup:

What's the torque/hp on the diesel your installing?

Good job man.

When the truck hits the road, she will be making about 350 rwhp and about 750 lb ft of torque. The goal for this motor is in the neighborhood of 650HP at the rear wheels which should put me in at about 1200 lb ft of torque....
