Durkota
Well I almost bought a jeep today. I think that marks a low point in my life and it was the kick in the ass I needed to pull wrenches on the dak again. Ive been waiting on parts for my engine which i will be swapping into the red truck so i have been in limbo for awhile. The cobras now under cover so i woke up and decided to make progress.
Im not sure how much lift i will need in the back so im starting with 4" shackle flip and will add a zero rate from there if i need to. I pulled the 56" stock springs out in favor of my old 52s to gain some departure angle and maybe a stronger pack.

Re: Durkota
I keep tossing the idea of running the bigblock auto around but i know what my truck feels like with 44s and I really want more gearing. Im not 100% on what im going to do yet. The plan was to do the chinese fire drill with the red trucks motor and trans

After a little bit of reading the blackbox titan is actualy looking good. I think it will only move my t case back an inch if anything at all. That would keep me from screwing around with a 2 piece driveline for the front... hmmm

Emailed nwf and it looks like i have to machine my 205 case to run the 90mm input bearing. Super annoying as i just rebuilt that case with new seals and bearings and redloctite on all the yoke nuts...
