Not a heck of a lot of progress. I did make some nice shackles and spring plates with the plasma tho :D
 
Don't actually expect Mace to do anything of worth for the next month. He has done his monthly wrenching on his FJ60 in Febuary. Stay tuned for March when he might actually finish his rear 4 link :flipoff2:

They had a bunch of different ones...I like the intern one too.

Rear suspension is done and the truck is back on it's legs..

butt sticks up a bit high (1 to 2" or so) but I am thinking a big bumper and spare tire carrier will fix that..

Triangulated three link.

The bridge is a boxed Ruff stuff unit...

The lower portion of the box is fully welded inside and outside. then the U shaped upper portion slides into the lower portion and is welded to the outside. It has a LOT of weld there. It is prety bomber, and I now have a better welder :)

Happy easter to you and yours as well :)
 
Looking good! What are you using for ends on your links?
 
axle lower's and frame uppers are ureathane bushings.

Frame lower's are Gyro Joints, Axle upper is a single 2.5" threaded Johnny Joint
 
where are the flexed out pics? :D

looks good man...
 
as soon as the tranny mount is in I'll post some flex shots.

Honestly, I did not make thins thing to flex like mad. I made it to be a capable, off road daily driver :)

Drive to the con or moab type of thing.
