Thinking about these if I can get him down on price. He still has them, but I'm afraid that may indicate stubborness on his part. I've seen builds where the pass side get's narrowed 4" or so which pulls the pumpkin over making the coil bucket land in the the perfect spot. Sterling rears are offset 2-3" so narrowing the set wouldn't put me out more than the fab time, sourcing another short side 10.25 shaft from the junkyard, and either a custom or shortened and re-splined long pass side 60 shaft.

Not too stubborn, eh?

Can't shorten stock shafts, they neck down. Gotta go bling.

65" wide for the front. D60 was $300 delivered to my house. Fresh out of a running truck with new u joints and ball joints. Weston (85jimmyguy) picked up a spare set of Chevy tons for a stupid price and the rear turned out to be exactly what I needed. So I'm getting that for the "what's a 14 bolt between friends?" price hahaha

Are you referring to the 60 shafts necking down I'm assuming? Oh well. One custom shaft I'll pry never break anyway isn't that bad.

Is this what ATF is supposed to look like?

Big Dogs + stock gears = toasted fluid. Bigger cooler installed.

I love a nice flat belly.

What was your ground clearance increase?

The box looks pretty sweet too.
