They are!

I wanted to keep them, but I don't really need three pairs of 4" shocks. And I know Brian will likely put them to use much sooner than I would have. ENJOY!

That was about the same reasoning I told myself when I sold them to you. Except I didn't have have 2 other pairs of 4" shocks - just 3"ers.

Almost ready to start the fab. I'm a bit undecided on how I want to build the engine cage, but it'll come to me. The tires are stuffed about as far as I want to go without moving the wire harness. Coincidentally, that's about the same point the center section contacts the frame.

Is there another OEM part # I can replace the power steering line with? This one is just not right.

Looks like you have a Saginaw pump on there? I'm not sure what fitting that pump uses but my Ford pump uses hose part number #55712 from Four Seasons and I think Gates is #361020. I have a pressure switch on mine though... not sure where yours went.

You can have a hose custom made at most autoparts stores. The oem one curves towards the front of the truck rather the around the steering shaft like yours.

You leaving the coil buckets off and using the coil kits that came with those shocks?

I have not clue what the spring rates on the coils that came with them are - but I think they are pretty heavy. They were on the front of a class 8 full size dodge the last time they were actually run...

whatever you do with your "pinky" should be kept to yourself Scott!

On a side note - did you get the email I sent this morning and look through the files?
