mystery leaf springs that came with Dana 44 purchase.

Lot I scored for $300: 74 Dana 44 drum axle disassembled, blasted, and painted. Also, big bearing 9" housing, case, and axles and some mystery leaf springs. I have GM disc parts collected already for the front. Knuckles came painted red so instant 10 HP extra!

New hood arrived, too.

Dana 60 from a 2005 F250 I bought from the Bronco seller. Pure beef and just gigantic. Won't even fit between the trailer rails so I'll have to cut it down before it can end up under this Bronco but I scored a Dana 44 that will work for now.

Identical second row center seats from two different 04-ish Expeditions. Paid $35 out the gate at Pick-n-Pull for the pair. Not the sexiest things but the integrated shoulder belts are helpful and they fold flat when the boys aren't with me.
