:rotflmao HD44's have no business in a heavy truck....:puke:

-Jon

ya it was nose heavy and as soon as I landed it snapped the housing, but didnt break anything inside. That happened the first night and it was a 2 night show, so the next morning we pulled it out and cut the knuckles off and took a piece of 2 7/8 pipe and sleeved it with a 2 3/8 pipe welded the knuckles on to the pipe and welded the spring perches and shock mounts on the pipe, basically converted it to 2 wheel drive and I ran it that night was able to jump it even higher it didnt break anything but did bend the pipe. Now I am in the middle of pulling all that back out and putting in a trussed d60. (now the oilfield pipe front end is serious redneck.):rotflmao

heres mine just got it like 5 months ago, first diesel

I love utility boxes! I keep thinking I should get one because carrying all my tools and HVAC equipment around takes up either a lot of cab room, or is messy in a topper covered truck.

....and people call me redneck! :rotflmao thats by far the most redneck thing i've ever heard!

It holds up just fine tho - she did good with that swap really, as she got the 14-bolt for next to nothing, and it was then only a matter of finding a pair of 8-lug AR chrome wheels that match her 5-lug fronts and are also stupid-wide :rotflmao Overall she has in the whole setup less than she'd normally pay for a decent pair of axles, can't beat factory performance parts on the cheap ;Sweet

I have an Elec fuel pump thats goin in soon, and a Pyro. Also a Cobra 148 GTL that is gonna be mounted on the roof like a big rig, she also has the Dixie Horn mounted to the frame rails ;) the frame will be painted black and maybe some new rims
