i have been slowly tearing my 89 single cab down over the past two months and i have finally jumped on it again. i figured since i didnt have a motor anymore i would find a suitable replacement, an iforce 4.7. and since im going to have to upgrade the rear of the beast i picked up an irs assy out of an 02 jaguar xj8. i will snap some pics as i go of corse and try to update as much as poss.

 

Sounds sweet! Can't wait to see progress pics

 

Sounds like fun and lots of power. Cant wait to see the pics

 

Excited to see the pictures!

 

sounds like you got a monster on your hands.

 

the jag assemblies are sought for! brakes on the inboard side too

 

no not on this one those models are $1800 and up this is mine(first pic). and here is some pics to start it off. i braced the frame and started cutting out c-members and tacked my trans mount in place since it will not be moving.
and the last pic is the bender i will be using, this unit is awesome comes with any die you choose and bends up to .120 wall with no hassel. only 300 bucks to

 

pulled links and rear end out. cutting back half out larter today.

well i made it a rolling chassis today with some good year slicks on 15x12 centerlines hahaha would be sick if it would fit with a bed but no way. still have to drop motor and trans in to check trans mount and build engine mounts. and a crossmember for my driveshaft carrier bearing. but all-in-all comin along\
