Dakota suspension on AD chassis Comp.

Here are some updates on the suspension mounted in my AD Chassis, now for some plumbing and more paint this thing should be a roller soon.
Picked up a set of gauges at the Del Mar Goodguys show, it looks like they have it all!
Has anyone used rear leaf springs from a Jeep Wagoneer?

Solid, Looks great. What motor you using? It looks like the motor mounts are farther forward that what I have???? I think I still have some more work in that area.

Bernie, I tried to get as many measurments as I could, but without the cab to measure from I used the core support and a mock up engine and 700R and that is what I ended up with.
Electric fan and short water pump it will work!!
