The disconnects will happen but we have to finish our joints first. we are going to start making our own joints and this will have them on both ends.

Nice build! Looking forward to the LA and cross member setup.

 

I set up a longer than usual long arm system for a smoother ride at speed I was going to build it for ECORS but I just don't have the time for that yet. so I am probably going to have to sell it so I can buy more equipment and build another one later.



This is my high steer set up. I did not want to spring for a tera knuckle but by properly machining The extra spacer for misalignment and then properly welding it later with high silicon wire it will be more than strong enough.



Axle in place. I installed my poly bushing kit and used 95d poly with this. I send out 88 with my kit i sell but I wanted this axle to be extra firm.



This shows my rear mounting of the arms behind the cross member for longer setup. I used a laser cut 5/16 bracket made from 100a steel. These are stronger than 3/8 hot rolled plate.

I used the stock cross member because I would like to go that direction with my long arm kits to provide long arms for a better value.



Note the 3" of thread showing. There is still 3.5 inches of 1.5" thread still in the arm. Also note: no welded tube insert. The arms are threaded internally 6" deep. The tubing is 2" x.281 DOM



Track bar bracket. The cross brace and track bar in powder coat.

can you give some more info on the long arms? like the joints used, im trying to figure out what i need for mine

 

Go back a few pages. He talks about making them.

 

looking forward to the release of the long arm crossmember as i am looking to up grade my drop cossmember with somthing a lil higher

 

Nice Build! Good to see other 2 doors on CF!

 

as far as the cross member goes we are still trying different ideas
We will end up with a 2.3.4 link xmember for custom builders and bolt on guys
Thanks for the props

Skills. You got em. Mad skills.

Might consider a name change to Ironman Overkill. Just sayin.

This build is awesome!

 

Hey Andy, is that the new trackbar mount up above? That one would work for mine...

 

Cool build! Love the stuff you make. Will probably be getting a trackbar from Ironman soon and looking forward to how the LA xmember turns out. It fits my long term plans
