Ford E-Series Rear Shackle Flip

Where were you two weeks ago? That’s a great deal. I’ll check your springs on your build since I considered the same options.

Funny story about that.

I'm local to Ujoint. I bought the FB003 bumper and a sPOD. Wife and I roll over there in the van, pick everything up and leave. One block away, the rear end gives the ghost. As I'm looking under the van Rob (Bbasso on here) pulls up because he saw me stranded. I limp the 2 blocks back to UJOR, and that's where my van is now.

I was making a deal on a 2021 12ft box truck, but it didn't work out, so I went ahead and ordered 6" springs and everything needed. I'm also getting new gears and a OX locker. Maybe even a TrueTrac up front if I can swing it.

The true test why I went with the 6" kit is because I was able to get in and out of a van to see if the height was a lot more for the wife. It was almost the same, so I'm going with it. It's nice having them local, but they're so busy, I have to chase Chris around the shop because he's running everywhere!

The rear end as it sits:
