I wanted a 4x4 crew cab but could not find one that was not a pile of **** so after a couple of years I ran across this clean 2 wheel drive crew, and the project began. I stripped out all of the front suspension along with all of the big block and trans. i started selling parts and collecting the things I needed slowly since this is a budget build, as much as a custom truck can be. I found a frame and cut off all of the 4x4 front end parts to use. the truck did not sit level with the weight of the Cummins so I decided to build custom hangers and shackles. I used half inch plate to build the hangers and made them an
1" ¾ longer. and i made the shackles 1" 3/4 longer as well
