Not a heck of a lot of progress. I did make some nice shackles and spring plates with the plasma tho :D

:D

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.

A arm at the top and dual parallel links on the bottom.

Suspended by F350 springs in a 1/4 Elliptical fashion..

Everything fit together very well.

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.
