I gone do that also for the all-wheel-drive-trucks , using TLT-1 or F-350 axles …
That just gone take a little more work to get it done right.
I also did a drive-shaft / suspension modification for the dual-rear axles ,
to get rid of that dog-bone setup .
Instead of having a movable drive-shaft , ( variable length ) ,
I made parts of the rear suspension movable , so a solid drive-shaft can be used .
But that will be a separate post .
Here a sneak-preview ( did this one already almost 2 years ago ,
and so far worked very good without any issues )




I will have 2 trucks with that setup in Indy . The newest one I did a little different .
It’s for a stock truck , not for an off-road truck with lifted suspension like in that photo.
