drum brakes are ok. cant tell a lot of difference. I am looking for a dana 60 front with disc just for the thought that it will be better.

Look'n good. :thup: I really like "bump" duallys. I built one on a '79 F350 4x4 chassis, in the process of building a '72 crewcab on a '93 F350 4x4 chassis, and a '71 crewcab shortbed 4x2. What did the wheel spacers on the front origanlly come off of???
Keep up the good work!!! :D
