She's Alive!!!!

Ok, here we go. Ive bust my azzz to get the frame and suspension done. This thing is soooo solid, dosent shake, flex or shimmy at all. I drove it around the block and around the neigborhood for a while, got it up to 40 mph for 4 blocks and it traks dead straight and like a dream. Im soo happy that it actually performs (for now) like i had hoped.

But, im not done yet. I still have to make the box, and the rack over the box to hold up the Eezi Awn roof tent, then load it all up and see how it handles fully laden. I have a feeling i might have to add 1 or 2 leafs to handle the weight, but well see when i get it all done.

Here are the pics:
1 - frame upside down (still welding/assembling)
2 - rear spring hanger
3 - rear spring hanger
