Day 27 Project Iron Wolf

29 Aug 2008

The day to get the body put onto the frame. The suspension is going together, but I need the body to be set into place so I can get the axles set into place and rock sliders set into place.

It took six guy to lift the body off my other scout and put it on the frame of Iron Wolf.

In this picture you can see the garage door is very close to the windshield hoop. 4" of clearance.

Set in place. In this picture you can see the new body bushing and the 3" body lift.

Right side view.

Another view. 39.5" Irok and Hummer set in place. In this picture you can see some of the suspension with the coil in place on left side. The height of the Scout should drop about 2". Still pretty tall.

Recieved most of the suspension from D&C Extreem. This set of pictures are the rear suspension all set in place.

This picture is the frame insert all welded up. This ties the rear four link and front three link to the frame.

The forward anchor point for the four link.

The Dana 60 Truss.

Rear anchor point of the four link.

Good shot of the right side. Everything is tacked awaiting the drive train. I need to have the tranny, NP231 Box 4 Rocks doubler kit, and Dana 300 to go in so I can set pinion angle.
