Can anyone post some pics of trucks with fullwidth axles under them?

Well i'll be startin on the swap soon now, i just bought my dana 44, i had a 76-77 f150 axle lined up, but it got sold b4 i could get the money, but i just picked up a 79 bronco d44 for 75 bucks, in pretty good shape too, needs balljoints, brake pads and axle u-joints but otherwise its great, i'll end up doing a similar set up to "bronco mitch's" rig and tito's, with the lower coil buckets flipped inward and i'll build a support for the part that won't be over the radius arm caps, and i've had my fullwidth 9" minus the center chunk and i may have a good lead on a 31 spline center chunk because all i have is 28 spline stuff. and i just picked up a nice set of 15x8 outlaw 2 aluminum rims and they look pretty good on the truck, for now it'll probably end up with 3.50's or 4.10's (which ever i end up with, my buddy has some factory ford 4.10's for the d44) until i can afford the 4.56's and 35's, i'll keep u guys posted and probably start a build thread when i really get into the project and get my camera charged up!;D

Hey, what size tires and lift are you running there P_M? That's about the mildest looking FW install I've ever seen (No offense meant if that wasn't your goal)

I am running 35s on 15" rims with a 3.5" lift and a 2" body lift. I always get that comment regarding the full widths, so no offense taken. I can't honestly tell you what the back spacing on my wheels is, but it is deeper than most because I was narrower than the average EB with 35s before the FW axles too. Somehow, it makes this one look closer to normal width. That's a good thing in this state, there's always a cop looking for an excuse to pull over a crawler for any number of ridiculous laws.

Sorry for the late responses - I must have botched the subscription to this thread.

This is one of my favorite pictures of my truck. 35x12.50.
