Default Dad's 44" Suburban - GLACIER TRUCK

Thing started out like this:



Then we hacked out my old 2nd gen:





and then we got ourselves a set of 44" DC Fun Country:



finished pulling the axles from the Dodge:



suspension parts off the Dodge:



gutted out the IFS:





Cleaned up the frame:



placed the Dana 60 where i wanted it:



reused some off the 4link off the Dodge:



reinforced it:



looked silly with just the front axle in place:



so we slit out the 14bolt semi-floating POS:



designed some 4link brackets in the back:
