Builds The honey badger build

[archie73]

Nice choice. I’ve eyeing them. Just need to select one that work with the CNC table I’m interested in.

We have the hypertherm powermax 45xp that we use on a Langmuir crossfire table. Works well, but hypertherm requires a few extras (machine torch and an extra bit of internal wiring loom) to work with the table. I’m not bitching, the table is awesome and the hypertherm has yet to disappoint. Just be ready to shell out another couple hundred.

Can you get the shock more vertical or even leaning forward? I like the idea of the mount under the fender attached to the cage.

I can yes. I just kinda have it set in there right now to see . But yes . I do not think I would have enough room if I ran them
Forward because the tub sticks out proud of the frame. . It is flush in the rear. But I will mess with it some before everything is permanent

 

[Firemedic831]

You know now that I think about it the frame and Tub are no longer a factor. I could not do it with the shock tower . But now I do not see why I would not work . I am
At work now but will look closer tonite

Ok here are the plates. The smaller plate as you can see will go up top and the larger plate will go under. The larger is the same size as the upper plus the cage. This is going to work out well and give me some room to play with .

I have rouge water jet do stuff. He normally does it same day for me

So I can fit the coilover like this . Without cutting the tub . I am not opposed to cutting but would prefer not to if I don’t have to. It’s kinda a one shot deal doing that . Thoughts

Are you 80 series width rear? I'm contemplating how to mount my rear coilovers. How is your clearance at full articulation in the rear?

Packaging looks good. You may want to check the upper mount for binding at compression. Ideally you would want it rotated 90 deg. so the bolt is the other way.

Good job finding a solution on making them fit,

Thank you. i will Spend some time this weekend checking and re checking everything If i can turn it 90 i will i think i can swap and have the resi go out towards the frame. . i made a video of it cycling and everything looked good . i think the concept works now just tune it in.
