Lifted 76' F250 2WD

Here's a few pic's of my one famiy owned 1976 F250 Custom, 460 C6. Autofab 5" lift in front w/ new coil buckets/ beam pivots. I just added the new coil buckets and still need shocks. Deaver rear leafs, 35" General Tires on 95-ish stock Alcoa's.

Very nice and clean 76hauler. My 76 flies but it has never flown like yours. Neat picture.

How were your dealings with Autofab?
 
*thanks Randy

*nobody special- you may hear stories of John(owner of autofab) being grumpy, but he's a realy kool guy, he knows his stuff without doubt. Darren and Tiffany are helpfull as well. You just gotta remember that John is old school, he's been into the 70's I beam trucks since, well, the 70's! He used to race with what he sells, so he knows what works. He still loves 4 shocks per wheel, but he's getting used to one big shock per wheel. If you wanna go coil over, talk with Darren.

I have almost bought stuff from them in the past, and I still might. How did their stuff work with your 8 lug parts? Were there any hurdles to overcome?
 
autofab deals with both 5 lug and 8 lug stuff. my F250 is an LD, light duty, so I have the 7/8 king pins/ beams like the 1/2 tons, but I have 8 lug hubs. F250 camper specials(and such) and 1 tons have 1" king pins and bigger beams, wich are the more desireable ones due to there strenght. Autofab has one ton beams w/ 5 lug hubs, but you're getting into more money.

Nice rig...I like it!
 
thank's to all! I know it's weird seeing a 2wd lifted, but it's fun in the desert and fire roads, plus the street handling is awesome.
