I didn't want to buy the kit I wanted to make the plate my self I can get a 2ft x 2ft plate or a 1ft x 1ft plate but I can't find anywhere where it says how long or wide they are I know it needs to be 1/4in thick aluminum but that's about as far as I've been getting lmao I was seeing if anyone else made one what size plate I should get

Pictures explain the fun I been having. 4 control arm bolts torched. 6 isolator bolts torched. Well pretty much everything lol. All holes enlarged for new control arms. Holes drilled for trac bar bracket. New shocks didn't come with bolts so have to buy them.

I just tore apart my headlight switch and the female connector is the culprit. the always hot lead has burnt itself up pretty good. after some reading, they recalled it on 3500s apparently but not other? which makes no sense as they are all the same.. ah well, currently taking a dump then to AutoZone.
also, drove about 40 mins to go check out this old tractor my dad&i are probably gonna buy. 1941 Ford. gonna be pretty cool.lol

alright..headlight switch.. it's being a real Will let me tell you.
so I'm still having the same problems, even with replacing the female adapter when I saw what happened to the old one
NOW. headlights and fogs will come on at the same time(cabs&running lights as well, obviously) but only when the new switch is in between fog and headlight. but when you pull it all the way out, it won't let the fogs&etc come on. SO-thoughts?also changing the grill and bumper to white bc why not

It's like a Cummins except ****** gas mileage but its power curve matches the transmission better than the Cummins.

How does she look now? 6" in the front, 4.5" in the rear. Driveway is on a slight angle.
Here's a before with 11" in the front, 7.5" in the rear.

Took the coil spacers and blocks out. Now I just have lift coils, aal, and body lift.
No steering or shocks on it right now though. Shocks come in tomorrow because I had to return the ones I bought before since I'm lower now. Everything else comes in Tuesday. I'm excited to see how it feels with shocks that are the proper length.
