Here's a little progress I made a few weeks ago. This project has been on hold due to trying to buy a piece of property with a much larger shop but...

After the front suspension was done it was obvious that the driveshaft was going to hit the lower link, the front shaft is a 2 piece that runs thru a custom carier bering thingy I made so I have options of where it can go on the upper end. The solution was to rebuild this frontend for the 3rd time in a year and put in a high-pinion along with some other goodies.

Jason decided to go with hub flanges so while he tore the rest of the axle apart I drilled the hub for the 6 dowel pins

Originaly I was going to put the detroit out of the original 3rd in the hp but realized it wasnt going to work, as the old 3rd was a 4cyl and hp's use v6 internals. I wanted it back togeather so I robbed the ARB out of the back of my wife's 4runner project and stuffed it in the hp 3rd along with a new set of 5.29's.

We also installed a set of 6 shooter knuckles and high-steer arms to help cope with the hydro steering.

All back togeather we now have no driveline interfernce isues :awesomework:

Custom designed fuel tank utilizes the stock pump and fits great.
