will one of you please email me .....My front end is falling apart, and instead of having the dealer replace it, i am going to be running the same setup that both of you are....could you please send me some pics of your steering linkage, and the radius arm mounting points...
I have the axle, now i need to wait for winter break to do it, but i need to see a few tecnical pics...

thanks 4wdakota, but i basicly going to be running a ford front end. (coild & radius arms). that is what Bobby Godwin-duhcodaman are running. the durango is a custom job, so is the max tire....i dont want to run leaf springs, and i already have gotten the front axle/ radius arms from a ford....i just really need to see some more thecniqal pics, not just ones of the overall trucks....
thanks for the links though, if i had the money i would run a setup like the durango...

JUST MY OPINION, BUT IF YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW WHERE TO MOUNT THE RADIUS ARM, I'M ASSUMING THAT YOU PROBABLY DON'T KNOW HOW TO DO THE REST OF IT. NOT TRYING TO BE OFFENSIVE, BUT YOU ARE SUPPORTING A LOT OF WEIGHT AND FORCE WITH YOUR FRONT END AND THE RADIUS ARM IS ONLY PART OF IT. I WOULD HAVE A SHOP DO IT . THEY WOULD KNOW HOW TO MOUNT YOUR COIL BUCKETS AND EVERYTHING ELSE. IF IT WAS A STRAIGHT BOLT UP KIT, I WOULD SAY GO FOR IT, BUT ITS NOT THAT SIMPLE.
