That cage design is sick!

 

needs more light bars



kidding. I don't often subscribe to builds, or post much in them, but yours is one that I do check every time I'm on. Fantastic fab work.

 

I wonder if that increased his hp?

 

Thanks! Used a couple ideas we've seen from other builds around the net. Other than that my buddy is the one doing all the designing.

Thanks, that's all my buddy's work. It's looking pretty sweet, I think.

Glad someone is looking at it. lol

 

Working to finish up the rear...







Rolled some tires beside it to get an idea of what it's going to look like.


I hate I'm stuck with the leaf springs for now but it is what it is... I'll link it sooner than later, I'm sure.



46's? lol

 

super sweet build

 

If you decide to go low COG, those 46's look awesome. I'm just sayin'

 

Thanks!

It's staying as low as possible.

It'll just depend on how much room I have up front with the axles installed.

 

I have some concerns about the rear shackle mounts. The angle on the shackles is going to be very low once weight is on them. This also means they will be sticking out quite far from the rear. What leafs are currently mounted?

 

Yep, they're going to be way out there. I don't like it either.

We'll have to see what the angle looks like with weight on it.

4.5" Rubicon Express leafs.

 

what if you get some longer leafs(like stock chevy 63") and then redo your front mount to be on the bottom of the frame rail? Basically youll be redoing all of the rear leaf mounts. But, what this will do is allow you to completely set up the rear how you want it. You'll gain droop from longer springs and you'll gain your lift by mounting to the under side of the frame. Plus, if you choose your front mounting point right, it could be reused for the frame side mounting point of your lower arms when you decided to link it.

This is just my thoughts and ideas.

 

Basically, I'm planning to rock it like this until I destroy a leaf spring. Then I'm going to get pissed off and link the rear.

I'm already building a rear cross member that can handle rear links.

 

I think I finally figured this out after a lot of thought. I think part of the reason there's a lack of comments on your build is because you know what you're doing, you clearly have an idea of where you're going, your fab work is amazing, your build isn't unsafe, you don't have stupid ghetto mods, and people are too jealous.

 

subscribing because **** you that's why

 

The ghetto mods are coming!

Well, **** you too.
