Yeah so found out they are 6" springs!!! Gonna put them on this weekend just for fun. Anybody need Deaver springs for a F150?

The old days when lifted trucks rode like they had no springs?

Trucks a 76 and the Bronco is a 72...

So the guy I got my FW axles from is thinking about putting his springs from the truck on to his bronco. I know that the springs are new and are Deaver, not sure of the lift. Rear springs are longer and the fronts are pretty stinckin tall, what do you guys think? Checked Deavers web site to...

The shock mount ties into your spring tower and then to the side of the frame, couple holes to drill and some welds and yer good to go. As far as shocks well that depends on a lot of things, the most common is to call a Cage rep and tell them your lift and that your running the long travel...

Check around on the $ for Cage, my buddy was quoted $630 or $640 not to long ago. I can see if the guy still has them at that price.

Wyle, did you happen to check the frames out at Olympic? I know they brought in 4-5 broncos awhile ago and had heard they were pretty rough, just wondering about the condition of them... Thanks

Yeah what Tito said, the Cage arms are worth the money. I got excited and installed the axles with out any clean up or gear change. With everything in I was able to work out rear shock mounts and be able to weld'm in without laying upside down. I was also wanting to see how much my springs bowed...

Just nearing the end on my FW swap, the rear axle was a matter of moving the spring pads and shock mounts. The front on mine is failry easy, I've got Cage long arms so I haven't moved the C bushings just redrilled the lower spring cups to rid some of the bow. Now if I can just figure out my...

If you haven't called them yet, try Olympic 4X4. As of a couple days ago they had 4 or 5, priced from $350-$450.

Fitz, I left them full width. Besides the looks cool factor you get a high pinion in the front, stronger internals (bearings,axle size, ujoints) and the disc brake upgrade all at once. Besides for me I love to get the rig almost on the road and then mess with the wife by taking it all back apart!

My buddy is scapping out his 76 F-150, besides the axles (they are already under my bronco) and the trans (435) what should I grab? Is the pedal assembly something I can make work when I convert from my C4, how about the Xfer case? I was told by a local shop that it would be a NP203 or 208, it...

x2 Pretty nice for the price, at 6'4" my bestop seats are mounted to the floor.

Thanks for all the info, the coil rear is in the "just wondering" stage, I've been looking into D90 & LandCruiser rear set ups. My old 93 LC flexed pretty damn good and rode real nice, I know the D90 guys get good performance with factory designed stuff as well. Need to focus on the full width...

Thanks for the replies, sounds like I need to look into relocating my wedges. I assume new wedges are sold through one of the parts houses, I've never looked. What about the new brackets that Cage sells for converting any rig to a straight axle with there longarms. Same arms but the brackets...

Decided to go another route, what I have is; SEFI factory Ford stuff,1988-1993 nothing is hacked or dameged Full harness, complete intake upper & lower, TB still fully assembeld Distributor, computer even the camshaft Intake still has all brackets and hard lines, all wires still in factory loom...

I have read your thread over and over, awesome build. Your the one pushing me to go full width, weather you know it or not your build influenced many people. I would like to be able to drive to SOB from Seattle, any farther and I will most likely be towing it. Daily driver no, but not a...

Decided to pull the trigger and put 1976 F-150 axles under my rig, I'm a new member but have been lurking for some time. Just wanted to run through my plan and see what ya'll think. As it sits now I have Cage arms with long travel hoops (also Cage) 3.5'' lift with Deaver springs front and rear...
