Been wondering the same. I follow Christian on IG but there’s been no mention of Jake or the channel in the few months that I’ve followed him. They were making such great videos.

[@fredcastor1]

hey guys, when will you upload videos again?

[@hendo337]

I LOVE this build, it's sophisticated enough to be legit, yet it's not completely out of the realm of possibilities for a guy starting out. I have a 1997 F250HD Reg Cab Long Bed 2wd 351w ZF-5 S47 and that suspension is life goals for me. Right now I am working of the engine and since I am in a state without inspection or emissions there are tons of possibilities there. This is the best thing to do with a 2wd OBS Ford, it's pointless to try lowering one, so you might as well go PreRunner if you're going to lift it. One crazy idea I have had is to cut out the back of the cab and the front of the bed, make them one piece and make a removable cap like a huge Bronco. Hopefully you'll keep updating this one even though it's been a long time. I know you guys have been busy. Hopefully you get back on KZbin.

[@jss6060]

Where have you guys been? Hope all is well

[@robertocastellanos9140]

It's great to know that you guys have a desire to teach people. I seem to learn something new every video.

[@halseyknox]

Hey Chris( that is your name?), I watched your vid on the radius arm build. Want to modify and lengthen the ones on my 72 F250 2wd. Was wondering if I could lean on you for some advice/tips....liked what I watched

[@chapekfabrication2975]

When it comes time to do Motor work, check out r&d IDI. I have their 90cc injection pump and "stage one" injectors on my 6.9 IDI along with an ats turbo kit, it does pretty good.

[@MegaModelMan]

I would love to see the finished suspension in action. Would you ever make a driving video?

[@outdoorexplorationgear5070]

this^^^ please huck, asap.

[@WingsWorldChannel]

Thats forsure something I can do, I ideally want to get the rear suspension done first and then do a driving video. The front feels great now, the rear still feels like crap haha!

[@caleblong1730]

Very nice! I enjoyed this series.

[@nickdecker2350]

Keep those loops in the brake lines!!!! They're there so when the truck flexes the lines have room to move at those little loops instead of stressing the fittings. A good example of this in use is most toyota trucks that have tons of frame flex but the brake lines stay intact because they have those loops everywhere

[@thrillbillyjp1]

Great work as usual bro... U and ur Lil brother have come along so far. I am tripping on mounting those resies in the engine bay like that. The whole point of choosing locations is mounting in a spot that's the coolest temp wise and cool air flow if possible for cooling reasons. But at this point ur more advanced then I am in this department. But way to, pat o. The back double knuckle berm shots on all the progress and I'm jelly on the entire family being completely behind u guys in the motorsports end of industry. Hells yeah. Hopefully I can run into u guys out in the Dez soon. My silvy isn't where I'd like it to be yet but my game plan is now under way, my son and I are half way aggressively active in our outdoors motocross rides. He is 14 riding his setup crf150f & I'm on my crf450f of course. Next on my list is actually used popup camper that I can use on half ton for now then once my tow rig has been procured the build commenses.. 🇺🇸 OH yeah which is extended uniballed dana 50 TTB widend abit on 37"s.half 4x weekender / still able to float some whoops as I get occasional bug.

Keep making awesome stuff guy's... Trucks, fab work video editing all on point. I even like the decision videos, now I want to build a truck on beams Soo bad .

[@Titantramp4u]

You guys are doing very nice work...you might want to take a minute to talk to the new builders following your channel the difference between a 45 deg SAE flare and the common performance builds the 37 deg AN flare....Thanks!

[@WingsWorldChannel]

Very true! We have previous videos on the channel on doing these stainless brakeslines already and alot of info has been talked about in those. But there 100% is a difference between the two when using stainless and -3 fittings!

I should have trusted you guys more...:)

Lua Dipa I’m not sure what you are referring to. People usually have hiluxes or landcrusiers (toyota). I love f trucks though and those are bloody rare and expensive. I’m the 6 years I’ve been looking for them I’ve only found two that were perfect. Couldn’t afford them at the time though

If your looking for any performance parts or even guidance on that 7.3 hit up the guys over at idiperformance.com/ super helpful and when I built my last idi I used their stage 1 injectors, injection pump and intercooler kit and man did that truck rip! Great guys and even better quality out of the parts.

[@cencoast_7.340]

I would do the ‘05 and up axle swap, newer axle and disk brakes at the same time.

[@WingsWorldChannel]

Not a bad idea! Ill have to look into it - christian

[@cencoast_7.340]

Wings World Yeah, very common swap for the Obs fords. A lot of guys do the front and rear axles out of the 05 up. Disk brakes, Dana axle, longer leafs etc.

Was he spraying primer there?

[@davidmays3333]

Great job from Oregon!!!

[@davemakiato7982]

Just a question, to get more travel out of the front,could you make the mounts for the beams longer(pushing away from the frame towards the ground) to raise it up and get more travel? I havent built a truck like this but was just wondering

[@joe212]

Sweet set up. What are your pans for the rear? Im intrested in a set of the drop brackes for the beams.

[@samanderson3401]

What happened to jakes insta

[@Chris-Devine]

Still curious where you were able to get ahold of those tri-aces

[@superdutyzack]

Why are the shocks reservoirs in the engine bay? Wouldn’t the engine bay heat affect the cooling effects of them? I could be totally wrong, just curious.

[@EFLO3D]

Im fiending for more content worse than Tyrell Biggums 😬😬

[@jamesmerkel9442]

w/video game u die & start right back up but hving 3 times the life bonus b4 your give out or shock fad out is the idea.

[@jamesmerkel9442]

4:11am if we had a hose like a reserve life shock attached to spot where oil filter goes, we could hve an extra quate or 2 of oil depending on mount location worth of vol of oil diy up grade to any stock system

[@prestonhayden8283]

Could you make me ah front kit or point me in the direction of your kit bc I have a 93 2wd idi id like to finish my truck and set the ride height just as yours is it’s the most beautiful idi I’ve ever seen 🥺

Besides kartech do you guys have a steelit retailer?

[@juicedelco]

How did the black on the suspension come out? I would like to touch up my frame ad well.

[@WingsWorldChannel]

Came out perfect! If you take the time to sand/wire wheel everything down really thoroughly, and they spray the steel it down good it has a really nice finish too it!

[@juicedelco]

@@WingsWorldChannel thanks!

[@crbullet8259]

I realized you used the rustolium 2x. Does that work the same as steel it?

[@WingsWorldChannel]

I only used the 2X on the inner fender liners, everything else on the truck got steel it. The 2x is what i used to use on EVERYTHING i built until steel it came out. Now it seems like im exclusively using steel it on things haha. It does NOT work the same as steel it though. Steel it has stainless steel flakes in it which makes it able to be welded through without removing the coating, 2x is just normal spray paint/primer in one

[@chopdongull2205]

I like the way you did that pretty slick better take that shit to the DR, its lookin sick man!!! I really get my Jollys on improving my 7.3s Just got done testing the wind Characteristics and plan on putting scoops in the fenders to feed fresh air to my Air filter. According to10 pieces of string all the way through mph to 100mph there is plenty of flowage so Ima gonna get out the 4" hole saw and the planishing hammer on some 22g. Man I would love to do up my crew cab dually would be monster sick pullin the single cab 12.85et 7.3. Q: The Brake Lines don't need to be the same length? The stock lines have that large coiled section at the Master Cylinder to make them equal in length? I am just about ready to do the Fronts on both my 97' OBS. The OE really suck to even deal with the soft lines at the frame pretty awful.

[@NOgo54]

I would not recommend a turbo with the 7.3 idi diesels. Head gaskets like to go after all that compression and then boost. Even naturally aspirated they seem to go. Valves like to drop as well. The old 6.9s would leak oil through the value seals, they fixed it... lol. I would recommend headers into dual exhaust and cutting the bowl inside the hat off and put a pyrometer and turn the pump up a 1/8 of a turn. I could only put all the fuel in it at higher speeds else just black smoke. I would feel better about boosting with a larger combustion camber and since the heads are flat I'd look at custom pistons.

[@cencoast_7.340]

That’s strange, I know a handful of guys running aftermarket Turbo kits (Banks/AFE) in their none stock idi’s with no issues. How much boost are you referring too?

[@zachalexander1189]

It looks great but more importantly how does it drive?

[@WingsWorldChannel]

Truck drives great! Front feels night and day better than it did before, drives straighter now too with a good alignment haha! Rear needs work still though

[@TheFagatron24476]

Amazing fab work but where’s the driving and flexing that front end and the ASHA dudes come on!!

[@WingsWorldChannel]

Driving will come later once the rear is done
