even on the 44s that is to much cut. leafs are little stiff and it wont flex that much

I'd go with the higher of the two lines you drew. Other one is too sharp of radius to look right to me. :rasta:

bent the shifters so they no longer hit each other. got the fancy knobs on and was able to use the stock 89 F250 boots

picked up a fan shroud and bolted the mechanical fan on. wont work as looks like the rad is higher up then the motor so not enough clearance at the bottom of the shroud. not able to lower the shroud enough as the lower hose and steering box is in the way. would also need a fan spacer as fan wasnt even in the shroud. so guess i need to find an electric fan to fit and change out my alternator to support that :rolleyes:

Are those alternators internally regulated?

Makes things a lot easier when you can just pull stuff off your parts buggy *ahem* other build rather than ordering them.

yes regulator is part of it. pretty much a two wire set up

its nice but bad at the same time as will need to replace the alternator for sure as killed the alternator on the last ride in the truck before starting the buggy build :headbang:
