HAahaha, the fenders wont be useable actually. To put glass on you skin the fender and leave the inner apron, then you attach the outer layer onto the existing inner layer. All that is left is the original outer fender and you just trash that. It's not usable.

As for the bed, I'll prolly just cut it at the wheel wells and flare it out.

 

So what all was done to that trucks suspension? How much lift? You rarely see a prerunner looking ram and that actually looks good...

 

Fabricated spindles in the front giving it about 3" there, but thats it. It's getting a full, full build. I'm actually working on the cost analysis in excel right now. I'm at about $4600 for the front and $1600 for the rear suspension.

 

Wish I had the knowledge and money to make my truck into what yours is right now. Always liked the prerunner look.

 

What did you have in mind for the rear suspension????

Guess I will have to come up with my own replacement panels.

 

I'm gonna run leaves on FOA smooths. There's no point in linking it unless I am going to enter large purse races, which I won't be. My Expedtion is linked, but It was a royal pain.

 

Whats the difference between 3 link and 4 link rear suspensions? I have a general idea, but would rather hear a full explanation. Why did you go with a 3 link with the Ford rather than 4 link?

 

That is an argument that has been raging for years and years. I did a 3 link in the Ford because I simply didn't have the $$$ at the time to build it the way I wanted it, so I went with the 3 link. The Heims alone were $150 each. Personally, I feel they perform the same way, but that's all opinion.

4 link has two links going from the axle to the frame. 3 link has pretty much a triangle over the axle which connects to a center mount.
