I haven't seen them in a 40, but I've seen a coil sprung 55 with 80 series axles (the suspension was pretty much stock 80 series components)...it is the pig on fire

its been done on a few 40s. one I can think of is a comp buggy. search for Orange Cruiser and see what you find.

I hope you don't degrade your rig by calling it the same name as your userid.
