Moving on...2/8/2017  8.8 coming out:  Snow storm inbound, so I brought the 10.25 inside:  One of my wedges is cracked, ill have to get replacements  Moving on to the SD leafs. The fixed end is 18mm. I don't have any 18mm bolts (nor do I have an 18mm drill bit), but I do have 3/4. So ive opted to drill out the bushing & hangar to 3/4. Here's the difference in size, it's pretty minimal (.708" to .750"):   Done & painted  stock pack next to the SD leafs. SD leafs "B Code" have maybe 1�½" more arch, and appear to be a tad longer. Probably going to need to keep overload, plus factory bronco block to get to 2½" lift, we'll see.  Pass side bracket is in pretty bad shape. D.side was replaced by previous owner, but this one is shot & needs to be replaced   Entire d.side frame has now been needle-scaled, wire wheeled & painted  If it snows tonight/tomorrow like theyre saying, ill be home clearing driveway. If not, ill be at junkyard with a buddy looking for stuff. Either way, there wont be any progress tomorrow. Hoping Friday I can get pass side frame stripped & painted. New shackle hangar arrives Friday, so im hoping Monday to install that plus hang leafs, we'll see. Comments are closed.
