So here it is I started the project . I'm starting with the rear bc I have everything to do that already .this will be a hp Dana 44 and full size 8.8 4.56 gr the rear is already done I will have the front rebuilt later


I'm already having an issue with the leaf hanger , if I move it foward it hits the cab mount . Is this safe to cut half of it off?

Question for you.. I have coils now I don't know how much lift they were on the 79 this Dana came out of. If they aren't high enough ill need to order other ones . What is the overall lift gain that a stock f150 coil will give? Also how about a stock early bronco coil?
