94TanRanger Posted June 8, 2009 Report Share Posted June 8, 2009 if its a ibeam truck have fun.... they are a nightmare and the camber can be rediculous. but if its a newer one with control arms its shouldnt be too bad. idk of any shops, but suicide doors is gonna have everything you need to do it minus drop ibeams which you will need and you can get those from DJM. what kind of set up are you wanting to run for the rear? i would suggest a 4 link with bags on the bars.

Its a 94 so I-beam front. The rear would just be a 4link and big c-notch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ohsolow Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 I have done several bag jobs ranging from basic bolt-on to complete back halfs. I actually have a 98 F150 in here now wiring up compressors and valves and building inner fenders for the front. I am about a month out on bringing in any new projects, if you are interested let me know and I can work up some prices.

Guest Removed Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 Its a 94 so I-beam front. The rear would just be a 4link and big c-notch. i can get a ifs setup to replace the beams..and it knocks off a ton of weight. but with beams, you have crazy camber issues, but if you set the camber just right at what i would call your normal drive height (daily mode) then tire wear is less of a issue, then when your parked, drop it. what are you really wanting to do with the truck is the question? you wanna daily/race? or just a cruiser or what? thats what your going to have to figure out first.

SPL_Josh Posted June 9, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 i thought about doing performance work, but that just seems like it will be an endless pit of money. I would just rather have a stock truck that will last 300-400k miles and just be a nice cruiser. I plan on getting a second gen L down the rode to actually be fast!

Guest Removed Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 then leave it stock, do some mild mods if any, and take care of it. then build one to be fast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
