Dang, that looks pretty nice. Are the radius arms any longer than the D28 arms?

hahaha get yer chevy jokes in boys.
no the radius arms are about 3 inches longer and I had to raise the suspension up and loosen the radius arms so they would move inward not much fun. then I had to use the radius arm mounts off of the other f150 frame. i'll post those pics later tonight

is that rear drive shaft installed where you show the pic of the slip joint? if that is installed you need to shorten it a little... maybe 1.5-2" when you take the blocks out I will be suprised if you will even get it to fit. there needs to be about 1-1.5" of joint showing on the slip part of the drive shaft depending on how much movement it has.

you are correct it's just temporary until I can figure out what to do with the front I am liking your idea of the solid axle but I would rather not have to change the width of the frame again and definitely not leafs. the frame is as wide as an f150 so any suggestions would be appreciated.

Any Updates?
Interested in seeing more pics on the front axle swap.
