IPlanning on just buying the trac bar and using everything from my donor truck to swap my 2wd OBS, but once I started cutting rivets off I decided to just buy the brackets and they made life so easy. I had to drill lots of holes in my frame to make it work, but he has since addressed this by making a 2wd kit after I’ve done the swap on my. Everything is super well constructed and looks great as well. The biggest thing is how easy it made the swap.
I took my time and worked on it for a little bit at a time over the winter but could absolutely be done in a weekend if you’ve got everything prepped and don’t have to run to town to grab things and wait on paint to dry.
I used 2.5” leveling springs for a superduty, with 2” lift shocks for a superduty. 4” OBS factory f350 rear blocks on the 2wd rear OBS leaf pack.
I used the brake lines off the donor truck, with the few fittings and adaptor ujoints + flange Joel recommended.
Anyways, I’ll add some pics below with the stock wheels w/ 2.5” wheel adaptors and also with 17” racelines 8x170. (Update: website won’t allow me to upload the photos, I have a few on my instagram @pocketlint_ https://www.instagram.com/pocketlint_?igsh=aDN3eGlkZXA3ampl&utm_source=qr
Good product works great. This was my second kit
Best axle swap kit available!
Quality of the fabrication is top notch.
Excellent customer service from start to finish
Overall impressed with quality of kit and hardware, got it installed in my 94 bronco with the 5.8. Would not recommend for this application though as every bracket needed fabricating to fit properly on a 1/2 ton frame
Awesome quality..beautiful welds throughout every peice.10 out of 10
From purchase to Shipping I had it in a week.what I like is when u call them you speak to the man himself.and if u have any kind of question he glady goes into details whether it’s from installing them to things u will need…this is how a buisness should run….cant wait to see what other things will be made for the obs….keep up the good work man
