Nooo I didn't get married ROFL, I finally SAS'd my Amigo!!!!! I swapped in a front end out of an '83 toyota and used Marlin High steer and springs from everywhere, and now it's up and goin!! It's only on 32's right now, but I have a payment in on some 35" MTR's

I will get pics up as soon as I can, but I'm at the library and it doesn't allow me to copy and paste links

However, I'm sooo psyched!!!

I hope I can catch up with ya'll!!! I got so busy I haven' been on much

Here's a before pic.. just so you can get the idea

Cleanin out all the IFS

Setting the axle under to measure leaf mounts

Aaaand the ALMOST finished project... on its way to the muffler shop!

Thats awesome, how good does it run for you? looks like something that would cost some pocket change to do. Is that your garage?

Ford4x4Chik27 · 02-26-2006, 09:43 PM

So far so good, but I know I'm bound to roll it it's just a matter of time... Once I put the bigger tires on it'll be more stable

It is my friend's shop, he helped me with the build. It didn't cost much, The most expensive part was the Marlin high steer, the axle was used and the other stuff we fabbed up. Not very costly at all... just time consuming that's all.
