I can't offer you any pics since I've never used the kit. I have heard good things about Poly Performance and there kits. I have bought stuff from them and has been good quality. Good Luck

stock 4x4 front parts are way cheaper. practically the same amount of work. and that big front crossmember looks ridiculous IMO.

Re: weld on 4.5" lift, front end

i got lot of problems that add up to why i even considered this kit

1 my 87 is 2wd and my daily driver
2 the parts truck im using is 4wd and its a 1980 ... front hangers are diffrent
3 cross over steering need atleast a 4" lift

my plain is to do this over a fue weekends starting out with welding the hangers on and swoping the rear axle so i can take then to get the ratios chainged to match then i'll put the nv4500 and np205 togeather and slide it in the truck and put the other crossmember in after that get the speedo calibrated and its a done deal
