I had to move this thing out of the shop to swap a radiator for my brother..... and the throttle response on this thing..... OMG........ I still hold true to this swap not being worth it...... but WOW.........

Don't run it through the shop door.........

luckilly the brakes are working great! I'm kinda wondering if this has 4.56s in it from the previous owner. It doesn't feel like the factory 3.73s with these 37s

The panels really don't line up that well so I'm taking them to an interior shop tomorrow. I'm hoping that by the time they are done I can have the last few things done and finish this thing! I'll hopefully have time to build the front end crossmember (part of the lift that hits the oil pan) done soon so that I can take this thing for a shakedown run!!

So this happened today.....

Looks like she was designed to pull.

Axle placement on the trailer looks far forward. Is that for a specific type of load?

The axle placement is horrible on it. I purchased it for the frame. Luckily with garbage axles in the wrong spot it was a hell of a deal!

I have a set I'd 8k Dexter axles that will be going in it soon. Planning on putting them back at 60% of the deck length

The throttle response on this thing is AMAZING but it REALLY needs a set of gears in it. 4th gear basically feels like 5th gear. I'll do another video on this thing once the interior is finished and a few of the bugs are worked out.

You should look into USShift for their electronics that allow you to swap in a Ford 6 speed transmission: Quick 6
