You can grab a Dakota rear line and that will give you lots of space. If I remember it was like 25/30 bucks.

Anybody have a single 15" wheel they want to sell cheap?

I just need one for a full sized spare.


Also, probably a dumb question but I need a jack too. Are High lift jacks only for if you have steel bumpers?

You can use a hi lift on a hitch. Be careful using it on your stock bumpers they can bend on the weight.

Hitch with a d-ring is preferred as compared to just the hitch. X2 on the stock bumpers. They're REALLY thin and will bend without any argument. Best bet is custom/aftermarket steel bumpers with d-rings for the front/rear, rock rails for the sides.

Cool I have a hitch in the front and rear. D ring up front but I can use it as needed.

Hi lift the best way to go?

Set of 4 wheels just went on CL in Norfolk. I'll see if I can grab 'em.

With long arms and sye on the way, I've started planning what comes next. I think I'm going to build up some axles to swap it. I want em bulletproof for 35s but strong enough for 37s if I ever want to go bigger.

Looking at doing a ford HP44 narrowed to waggy width, 1ton otk steering. 4.88 gears with a selectable locker.

Rear is going to be an 8.8 trussed with tubes welded, super 88 kit, 4.88s and a selectable locker.

Going to look at a ford hp44 tomorrow, guy isn't sure what year its from but I'm gona check to see if the radius arm mounts are welded or cast.
