SAFETY FIRST!!

Use some common sense when building or duplicating anything I have done here. By attempting it you are accepting personal responsibility for your own safety. If somehow you get injured don’t blame me. I am not some big corporation with deep pockets. Isn’t it a shame I have to include this statement :/

" I've been framed!"











So now that the rear end is pretty much sized up ( or down as it were...lol), I have been working on the rear portion of the frame for it to snuggle up to, and rather than go into all I had to do to get everything measured up in the car for it...I'll just say that I've already done all that :).

I got the basic frame here ready for the shock and ladder bar setup, the shocks having just been modified and built and installed (minus the lower brackets to the differential). The ultimate goal of mine in the beginning was to build as much myself as possible, so, even though its not as professional as possible, I think I still did fairly well. the frame at this point is just "tacked" together. Taran will be taking it to work and fully welding the unit solid. The shocks turned out great. I used a pair of simple bolt on coil over springs (rated 1250 load pounds per set) to mount to the modified ( shortened shocks). The ladder bars will be here in a couple days, so for now I will just leave this all set up here till I can put it all together as a complete unit which I will record and publish as well. So we'll see ya in a few days. :) chao!!
