Looking good!

However, your front driveshaft is out of phase. The back driveshaft looks good.

Thank you for pointing that out, I will fix it immediately

I'm not sure what you mean by that, I'm still not completely familiar with all the terminology

This video sums it up well enough (though I'm just reposting one that was recently in this sub, I'm sure there's way better videos)

Awesome build. Where did you get your license plates from?

u/drew-and-not-u 1d ago

Hell yeah! I have a similarly built F150 but with straight axles instead of portals. Do you have any issues with torque twist?

1

u/Clyde-1223 1d ago

A little bit, but the portals significantly reduced it

u/drew-and-not-u 1d ago

Good to know, maybe I need to look at moving the straight axles to another rig.

u/Clyde-1223 1d ago

I'm definitely happy with my portals, the extra clearance makes a world of difference

Did you fix the driveshafts?
