100K on the driveline

Man that's awesome! Always liked those 2 doors for some reason. Maybe cause I have a thing for 2 door SUVs

Purs like a kitten only thing I found wrong is the body mount bushings are shot and the overhead display is out easy fixes

Not bad for 212K, that's for sure. How much did she cost if you don't mind me asking?

It really wasnt too hard, just took a couple of hours and most of that was waiting for it dry so you can put another layer on.

Gave 4k for her only because of the drivetrain swap the dealer was honest with me right off the bat he told me about the swap.

Ah. Not bad.

Removed the 2.5" blocks I had in the rear and put back in the 2" oem ford blocks I had first put in when the truck was new. My 2wd has a pretty much stock 4x4 stance. 22.75" in the front and 25" in the rear.

I started with the 2" block, added 4x4 coilovers in the front, but they lifted me too high. I was at about 24" in the front with those, then added a 2.5" block, then a 3" block. At that point my truck started to look a bit lifted and that really wasn't what I wanted. Replaced the coilovers with Monroe 2wd quickstuts and put a 1/2" soacer on them. Had a little over 3" of rake, so now I'm back to where I started with the 2" blocks.

While they're not hard to swap, laying on the ground and tightening and un tightening those nuts on the u bolts is not comfortable.

^^Looks good, but a little to much rake for me. Maybe its just the angle.
