The front is a little more oldschool than the rear Haha. Any plans for it or you just gonna run it as is?

Drives like crap right now... BFG flat spot shake and front end feels like tow out... darts all over the place.
Going to lop those front mounts of and run a coilover and maybe a bypass. Probably have to widen it a little to get good shock angles.

I do plan on changing the wheels, but there is already two people wanting them. These wheels will stay until I coilover the front end.

Re: "Gumby" The 67 F100 Prerunner
Philo's coolest ride to date! I don't blame you fro wanting to switch to coil-overs but man, do I love the mold-school multi-shock from ends. Nice Job. I bet that thing will be damn fast in the rough.

If the back end was more vintage I would leave the multi shock setup. It's cool but makes for 3x the work when valving and rebuilding.
No Coyote motor. If the Cleveland fails I will go to a LS based engine and T400. Don't worry, I'll put Ford stickers on it like this "Dodge" motor.
Today I make a quick hitch so I can move empty trailers between locations.

Installed some new tires today... upgraded to Toyo 39" race tires. The truck drives sooo much smoother now. Going to have to convert to a full floater and put bigger breaks on it soon.

Got some beam pivots and radius arm pivots from Ryan Piggott / Dezline Fabrication in today. Now I just need to find some 1" kingpin beams (I think mine are 7/8) and some 1 ton spindles with the "bolt on" caliper mounts. Once I have that I can put together a 13" rotor brake package for the front and build some radius arms.

He just started. I believe he is still going to school and working at Ruff Stuff too. Hard working talented guy... I wish him the best on his venture.

Re: "Gumby" The 67 F100 Prerunner
If he answers the phone and fulfills commitments he'll do just fine. If he does he'll already have half of his competition beat. Hope he does just that.
Cool truck Philo.

He is very solid when it comes to responding and fulfilling commitments. I sent payment for these via Paypal and received a tracking number quickly without even asking.
