country0001's Blue B2 build

[country0001]

B2 is mobile again, runnin the new driveshaft I built. Can't wait to get the Rough Country lift and D35 installed.

Taking donations to expedite this process..........

Took 2 leaves out, sits and rides better, still waiting on money for lift.

Gotta buy school supplies and stuff.

Awseome, subscribed. Which lift did you order, the basic $500ish one? Thats kind of what I was looking at, but I figure I've got to at least get that puny D 28 out, or have a D35 on hand. But I cant have better parts laying around without putting them in, haha. Good luck putting it on, make sure to take plenty of pics. :icon_thumby:

I ordered the 4" lift with blocks, I don't need the blocks, but got them anyways. It was 512 shipped.

I'll be doing my tcase swap and D35 swap all at the same time.

I'll take some pics as I go along. Its just time for the upgrade.

Kit came in today. Truck is jacked up, and the t case comes out tomorrow. Maybe the front end too

1354M installed last night. I guess the 1350M shifter is different from the 1354 shifter.
I'll figure that out later, pullin D 28 out tonight, and maybe getting D35 back in, weather is moving in. Praying for decent temps to work in tonight.

Lift in, gotta take it in to get aligned this week.

What brake lines has every one used with a 4" lift?

I'll research that later today.

i think for brake lines there is a artical in the tech library about pieceing two hose's together

Thanks already found it. Got em on and drove it all weekend. Very happy with the results. Haven't taken any pics yet. Still have to hook up my t case shifter.

Is the 1350m shifter different from the 1354m shifter?

 

[country0001]

Lift installed, 1354m and D35 installed.

Next step is winch bumper and bigger tires

No real updates, other than a broken leaf spring hanger. I guess I'll order a new one from Broncograveyard and do some new shackles.

Still a lil rough with the F150 springs, but better since I removed 2 of the leaves.

Broken! Was it a rusty part? was the carnage so extreme they sent in rescue helicopters!
