Hey, I stand corrected on the 8.8 axle!
Now I was wondering about what looks like the lower end of spring shackle mounts on the front axle that appear to be lower than the front wheels. Would that be a problem if you had a flat tire? Maybe the picture is deceiving...?

Nice work, I was looking for pictures of a suicide mount and rear steer set up. I see you had to clearance the lucky seven mount. Because of the leverage on your mount I would have ran the cross member through the frame and welded to both sides.
The truck looks great. Nice stance and I like the tire choice.[cl

i work at a ford dealer and ive worked on hundreds and hundreds of those motors and thats a bad idea all over on engine mounting. there is no strength casting in those areas. i broken the edges off when tightening the covers on old engines.

There proven to hold over 2000 hp on these motors , theres a mid plate also it goes in between the motor and trans and mounts to the frame like the motor plate , i've used them for over 20 years with not one problem yet but thanks for the heads up its all good
