johnny joints on EB

[75]

has anyone put johnny joints on the frame end of EB radias arms? pics? seems to me this would be easier than bc's WAH or wristing the radias arms. thanks for any input.

i know it's been done but i can't think of where to send ya off the top of my head.. Wristing the radius arm is really easy though, and practially free.. (if ya have steel layin around and a good welder.. )

i'm scared of the WAH..

these are arms that I built for my 73 a few years ago and they are still working great with no problems to speak of yet.

The only thing scarry about the WAH is how great it works!! Mine was kit #2 and it is also working flawlessly.

IMNOTRIGHT ~ Just what is it that scares you about the WAH?

[rokcrln]

See what I mean about scarry! And it still drives 75+ down the road with 1 finger on the wheel.

Damn.. i have no actual usefull reasoning behind why it scares me.. it just doesnt... look right!!
just one of those unlogical things ya'll never figure out

All I have to say to that pic flexed up is....Nutz.

What other flexy gadgets do you have? Pivots at the rear perches? How about coil bucket pivots? Jonney Joints? Hemi's at the arms? Longer leaves? The pic looks better than BC's examples.

Thanks, I sent Chuck and E-mail on the full write up I did here on this board and thought he might want some pics or somthing but I never heard back.

As far as mods, National 11 leafs 3 1/5", WH 5 1/2" rock crawler coils, Custom rear spring pivots w/2" of lift, custom front arms longer and johney jointed 1 1/2" .188 wal dom, WAH from BC broncos, 19" travel front shock set up uses 15-16" and shock pivots to relieve bind, and alot of trimming covered my WH gorella flairs.

Things left to do is raise the spring bucket and add front spring pivots, Change all 8 shocks to the new longer ranchos. Add sway bar to the front for street driving, new cage tied in front to back with some exo work and full tear down and rebuilt and paint.
