Awesome!! So does it still have the ttb in the front? I noticed coilovers in front. What's locating the front axle now? I'm assuming the front leafs are gone.

i am locating the ttb with radius arms, like a bronco or an f150, but much longer, and with currie johnny joints on the ends. yeah leafs are gone, did a coilover conversion.

Ya that's what I thought! So is the center of the ttb still bolted to the cross member without a drop bracket?
Good job on the rear tire carrier! I would like to build one but need to see one in person before I would attempt it!
