I modified mine. As supplied it put the spare way too high, I think that I lowered it almost 6 inches. That's a 35-12.50R15 bolted on it in the pic. If you order anything custom do not assume anything, make sure that it is spelled out in the quote. If it's not there they won't do it. Mine was...

The beams were done by someone fairly skilled but they missed on the PS beam's camber. Using the largest angle adjuster gets it almost close to spec. These would be good beams for a wahoo machine that doesn't see long drives on pavement or maybe a HS kid's truck. I did make long drives on...

I'm in the process of doing it on my FSB. The one thing that I'd caution about is wheel back-spacing. Newer 8 lug trucks are not the same as older 8 lug trucks. AND it used to be that 8 lug was 8lug, but Ford screwed that up in '99 and now Dodge has seen fit to copy them. So there are at least...

Matt's ORR pulls a 6G out with a broken Tie-Rod, but the part that is concerning is that the aftermarket bumper wasn't up to the task.

This could be fun, watching all of the stunt drivers. Just stay the heck out of their way!!! https://www.sfgate.com/bayarea/article/rare-winter-storm-blizzard-warning-los-angeles-17799436.php

Can see in this pic why the wheels have to change: I now have all 5 of the AR "Baja's" and will hopefully be getting them down to the tire guy next week. Old beams are out. PO said "it's got some sort of posi up front" When I got the assembly out from under the truck the diff case has...

If going on a run is intimidating (it should NOT be, but I know how it can be) then I'll make a suggestion, take a course on driving off pavement. My wife was new to driving off pavement and we didn't jive in the instructor/student roles so I got her a class with https://www.4x4training.com/...

Best way to learn is to put what you've read into practice. The Big Bear Bronco Bash is coming soon and is a great way to make connections and go on a trail run appropriate to your skills.

Drive it up to the Big Bear event! https://socalbroncos.com/forum/threads/big-bear-bronco-bash-xxii.409/

Unless I'm mistaken the stock pan is sheet metal and doesn't have the thickness required for pipe threads to seal. Even the cast aluminum pans really need to have a boss cast into them for this, their normal wall thickness is marginal. Welding a bung on isn't too big of a deal. There are even...

I'm waiting until I'm closer to doing the trans service before buying a pan for it. The pan that I want is just over $400...... Typically you can't just tap the stock oil pan for the sender. You need to weld on a threaded boss. Also need to look at what's inside and where, and again out the...

PML offers cast aluminum pans, in both case fill and pan fill, with the option of adding the temp sender port. https://yourcovers.com/pml-ford-c4-deep-pan-fill-with-fitting-transmission-pan.html https://yourcovers.com/pml-ford-c4-deep-case-fill-transmission-pan.html

Which trans?

The GPX file has route(s) and waypoints? What happens if it has only a route?

I use an iPad for nav in the field, so I'm no help with CarPlay. I've tested the route making feature within OnX and it works fairly well. Where there are gaps in the roads on the map it won't jump over at obvious spots like Gaia can do sometimes, but other than that it works well. I do find...

Seems to work for me.

Almost there on the rear axle. Remaining to be finished: T&B zip tying the bundle of tubes, hoses and electrical connecting the rear axle to the chassis (& trimming the zip-ties); lower shock mounts (waiting on the Fox RR's due in end of the week); routing and fastening down the p-brake cables...

Your memory about any conversation we may have had is better than mine! It does look steep, but I hadn't dug that deep into it. I think that I'll leave it for someone else to explore. FWIW I've plotted the Big Bear to Ballarat route (far further actually) in Gaia, but recently (as in...

I've never made this run during BBBB or otherwise, so I'm looking for local knowledge. OnX shows an option that takes you clear down to the desert floor. Does that actually exist and is it legal/viable/passable? Already pinged the old list about this. Thanks!!
