Curious how that front will work, 3 link with panhard? Hard to see. rockstacker1 03-12-2007, 09:13 AM thanks for the props. Front suspension is a paralell 4 link works great Haven't had any problems with the ram down there before This is a build up of this rig it's been wheeled plenty the most recent build cganged it's balance to about 49-51 and located the balance piont of the chassis in the center of the wheel base for better handling in the rough stuff. The chassis was beefed up big time to end frame flex and triangulate load points to take abuse. The cage was beefed up and the air bumps were added. It used to ride on 2" coil overs now it's on 2.5's. Should get the shocks back from rebuild this week and be able to give her a go. orangefj45 03-12-2007, 09:48 AM really looking forward to seeing some action shots :beer: LC Hamma 03-12-2007, 11:25 AM i dig it!:D the only thing thaat worries me is the location of the hydro ram. some rock os gonna eat thatfor lunch.:( I agree. The cable for the OX looks very vulnerable if you get hung up in some bush. :flipoff2: rockstacker1 03-15-2007, 07:59 AM what's wrong with getting hung up in a bush. one of my favorite pastimes:flipoff2: That set up has not been trail tested more than moab and 21 road but that's quite a bit. the steering gear protects it yery well when it's installed. The Tie rod is 1.5" .250 wall sleeved with 1.75" .120 wall. Strong stuff... although I did bend one but that was definitely the beer's fault. ChevotaSS 03-15-2007, 07:25 PM looks awesome!! alot of what im going towards with my new rig. got any pics of how you did the shifter and center console setup. so some pics with bits and pieces but nothing with whole thing and how it was set up. rockstacker1 03-16-2007, 05:20 PM Funny, mine's a '69 too.I'll try to dig up some pics if not I'll take some. Its just two runners from the dash bar down to the Ladder section the seats are mounted to.
