Re: Project ''Second Time Around''

Well I finally received the rest of my 2-link parts. This weekend I removed the old axle saddles and welded on the new ones. I was originally going to use the flip kit that was on it, but because of the 2 link bars, it put the pinion angle way off. Also the 2-link bars are narrower than the leaf springs so the bottom plates are too wide, and the old U-bolts are too short. So I ordered the individual parts from Ekstensive Metalworks because their stuff would match. Just recently they've been selling individual parts, and the funny thing is, is now I have a complete flip kit when I just bought one for my black truck.

The 2-link is all bolted in, The U-bolts still need to be cut shorter. Next is the bag mounts.
