A little full-size flex, nothing special, it's simple and it works. Will be going with some longer custom springs this fall though.

not a good flex pic.. it goes a lot further.. you can see the rear axle straight though

That is Greg "M", tube frame rock monster. He hand bent that in his garage with one of those harbor freight tube benders. It flexs ALOT more than that ! <IMG SRC="smilies/eek.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/wink.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0">

Yea I know Greg. That thing is cool, but the driver is not all that. The truck was built in his garage, and the engineering is ok, but not all that. Basically the 4 link allows for a lot of rear steer and it crab walks like a bowlegged crab. The guy is really nice, and has a shop of his own. He even admitted that the truck there is not what he normally builds, and he builds much better rigs.

RoverOver, Is the red Rover a Defender 110?

I totally want one of those, but they are waaay expensive. I might get a series III wagon , but I like the Defender 110 better.

Sweet rides.

For all the people that say there is no advantages to a multi-link suspension:

I would like to see a leaf spring try that!!!

[ 09-26-2001: Message edited by: Station ]

that is a leaf spring

Yup, 1971 (wink, wink) Defender 110 with a whole lot of 1996 parts including their little 2.5L turbo diesel called the 300 Tdi. Loads of fun to drive, especially since it's right-hand drive.

Some guy at a stoplight says to me: "Dude, that steering wheel is on the wrong side!"

My response: "It's on the RIGHT side, D@#$it!!" <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/tongue.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/tongue.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0">

It's still a work in progress since it was quite beat up by the previous owner, but I love it!


Btw, if I can get the rear locker fixed in time, I'll bring it to the clean-up on the 6th.
