this is a long drawn out build because I'm fat and slow. ;D start bought a '91 xplorer(seemed like a good idea since i have a family of 4) when finished it will have dana 70 rear lincoln lock with 4:88 dana 60 front with 4:88(locker when money allows) 1969 ford 429/c-6/twin sticked 205 sitting on 39" iroks cost me $125.00  i didn't like this look  this is much better  yes a BB does fit into a xplorer  built motor mounts   picked up this hp Dana 60 with high steer arms for $900  because i have full width axles i made these to go under and along the side of the frame  finally got the axle installed  im not to sure about the shackle angle I might change it later  |

IMO that's where the shackle should be under compression! room for some uptravel, but allows more down travel! looks good.
