Default Matt's Full Width Scout II

This is a recent project we completed for our good customer Matt P. The Scout was trailered to us as the current spring over axle lift made it unsafe to drive. We pretty much ripped everything out and replaced it with a Dana 44 front axle and GM 14bolt rear axle out of a 3/4 ton Chevy pickup. A CV rear driveline was installed along with a long travel front driveshaft. The Scout already had a reverse shackle but with the short front fangs it left no room for the hysteer so we replaced the front fangs with some CPT ones to make clearance for the tierod. We did leave the shackles below the frame to save a little labor of redoing it thru the frame. The front axle had a Powrlok installed along with 5.13 gears. Flat top knuckles were machined for a PartsMike hysteer system. The front brakes were completely redone. The rear axle had a custom disc brake kit installed along with a Detroit Locker and 5.13 gears.
