Re: 81 f150 go fast race truck

Anyone have any clue what headers will work with a ttb? The ones I bought the driver side collector sits about 1" above the center of the front driveline yoke, tried to heat it and bend it in but it's still only 2"-3" maybe of uptravel before hitting, I'm thinking some shorty headers but they are so...

Re: 81 f150 go fast race truck

Scored a new set of 4" h57 Deaver 10 leaf rear springs new for $160, now I can remount rear shackles and actually get some travel out of the rear, also my motor is finally done, just need to get $1500 more out to the builder and bring that beast home, then plenty of "break in time" out on the street...

Re: 81 f150 go fast race truck

Well, still waiting on my motor to get done, it's getting close, just need to order a oil pan and oil pump and a few other odds and ends. Had to cut out front shock hoop/engine cage and bend up a new one to make room for the bigger shocks, made new lower shock mounts and plated the radius arms. IMG_...

Re: 81 f150 go fast race truck

I'm starting to think they are the stock f150 springs, that's why they changed the shackle setup to lift the truck to match the front, i want to change shackle setup back to stock but with a long shackle but I'm going to need to find a set off different springs with a bit more arch

Re: 81 f150 go fast race truck

That's what I was thinking, I think I'm going to cut it off and redo the rear setup

Re: 81 f150 go fast race truck

Got both rear shocks mounted and res tabs welded on, I still don't quite understand their thinking with the rear spring shackle setup, I can't see this working very well, shackle angle straight up and down.

Re: 81 f150 go fast race truck

Awesome! Thanks for the info, glad it works, I didn't really want to have to go through the hassle of cable shifter, besides this truck will really only see 4x4 when I'm stuck

Re: 81 f150 go fast race truck

Well I was thinking of either bending the 4x4 shifter over to and extending it so it runs out the side of the console, but I'm guessing there's a chance that won't work due to the twisting motion it's gonna want to do, so I have a bunch of t case shifter cables so worst case it will be cable operated

Re: 81 f150 go fast race truck

Did a little work last night, plated the front ttb on the front outside and the insides as well to box them in, also went to mount my new front coils only to find the the bottoms don't taper to a small round coil to fit the factory style bucket and clamp, so I dabbed up a coil bucket and a new clamp...
