So far so good. I've run it heavy for a road trip with some fast offroad sections. A bit soft, but I'm working on getting my gear light. Thanks for the info!
I would highly recommend some cut and turned beams, much better for going fast. I'd only go coilovers if you have reached the limits of your shocks. Amazing what these do with some coils, radius arms and tuned shocks.
I had a set of Cut and Turn beams from autofab that I started from, but it's a...
They have a very specific purpose, go fast. Solid axles will always be tougher, but you just cant beat 19" of wheel travel to smooth out a road at speed. :)
I built everything. I bought some files from DIYOffroad.com for the rear hangers and radius arms.
Front is 4.5"+ per side plated beams with 2.5 King Coilovers & 2.0 Bumps Strapped @ 19"
Q80 Deavers in the rear with 18" 2.5 King triple bypass shocks Strapped @ 19"
I designed and built the double...
Hey Madmax! Great looking Bronco you have! Love them nice and white :)
1994 5.8 I built all of the suspension and steering 4.5+ wider beams per side, double cross over steering, 16" King coilovers up front, and 18" triple bypasses out back on Deaver Q80 Springs. 37" BFG Projects on some vintage...
Beautiful work Michael. Question, I looked back through the thread and did not see if you quoted a $ figure or timeline for a product run on your suspension setup, I'm overly interested and will be looking to make a decision on my 4x4 setup soon.
Cheers,

This was my 08 S. Loved that car, but was it turned out to be a huge money pit. (Catalytic issues, water damage from blocked plugs and Gremlins) I got lucky, traded it in for another car for my wife and got 17k for it (friend was manager). I found out that the dealership spent 10k attempting to...
There are some tricks to getting it done, it won't just bolt in...Nothing too tricky though... http://www.carlisuspension.com/ford-super-duty/suspension/ford_dominator.html
I will defiantly start a new thread when we get started, there is a strong possibility we will be bullet proofing the...
Ha! Thanks! I've been told the key to happiness is wanting what you have... I'm still learning that one... :) I'm Going to do a 05 axle swap so I can get some real suspension under it (prob Carli Dominator 3.0, strip it down to the cab, 2011+ front clip, custom flatbed with a custom camper...
Changed the rocker gaskets with integral wiring harness and presto. Starts no problem. Often the connector plugs will melt on the wiring and your not going to start it easily without being plugged in.
Thanks redthies! If I'm going in to change the relay & plugs I'll be doing this as well, no...
