Well done, curious to know what are your coil overs and what are the specs. Thanks

Fox 2.5 DSC resis 14” travel. Tuned by Accutune, I got them used from another dude who had a Cummins swapped 60 series.
beautiful build, attention to detail is over 9000
great job man

Very nice! I once built a similar project like yours on 80 series F&R axles and we used 16” dual spring rate coil over with reservoir as well by ProFender (Thailand - made) that was based off the Fox’s original design.

@OEMGUY0720 if I remember correctly it’s a 200/250 rate.

Just got back from Moab+ a few other stops.
Met up with another linked/ SAS’d 100 series @TrailBornRunner - The dude parties hard with a flatbed
The car did great for all 3500 miles of a shakedown. White rim road was rad even though it snowed on us. Top of the world was a blast, and Hell’s Revenge was next level. I tried all the hard lines and barely made it up Hell’s gate even after getting stuck momentarily.
I found 3 of 8 loose motor mount bolts and a rear upper control up missing a nut when I got home but no broken parts (maybe a scratch or two). All in all it was a sick trip. The car was able to hit 90mph in some downhill sections but I was cruising at a happy 75mph for most of the trip. Going up mountain passes wasn’t fun, she needs more power to spin those 40s. Supercharger anyone?
Steering took a little while to get used to but I can drive it with a couple fingers in traffic now.
Wheeling it was fun, but it will take some time getting used to the width. I slipped off the right wall coming up hells gate towards the end because I thought I was wider than I am. Counterintuitive because it’s such a large car now.
40s feel like cheating, low range is good but something lower is to be desired. I was talking with Trevor about options for an Atlas case. Future ideas.
I need a stiffer rear spring, carrying 2 other dudes and a bunch of camping gear was too heavy for the current set up. I believe I have the 615V springs from dobinsons.
I had that Carolina squat going- not my style
Anyways here’s some pictures:

On the topic of rear sag, does anyone have experience with the Dobinsons "C97-485VT – 4.0″ with a heavy load rear end of 300-400LBS of added weight (variable dual rate long travel)"?
It doesn't show a spring rate but I'm assuming it's higher due to the fact that it "carries" more weight, even though my current 615V is supposed to carry 200lbs at a 4" lift height.
There's also the C59-313 (4" lift with 400-750lbs)
or C59-317 (6" lift with stock weight)

Trevor! I know that guy! I believe that's my old grill on his rig.
Heckuva guy!
This is a pretty exclusive example of "Birds of a feather..."

Haha, yup that's your grill, then eventually have your hood if I can figure out how to get a VDJ79 hood into the country for not a whole lot of money, extra side question if anybody knows how to. part# 53301-60750
Build looks great, big risks brings big reward!
Couldn’t agree more! Looking forward to Crockies to see the latest on his rig.
