[QUOTE="Beerj, post: 611053, member: 10035"] Couple of daylight pics. The upper chassis mounts were originally a 1 piece mount where 2 links would converge at the chassis. I was going to use it for the lowers but I had a hard time keeping the numbers right with the lowers that low. So I just cut the thing in half and used it for the uppers. [URL=http://s261.photobucket.com/user/BeerJ/media/20160813_1848001_zpsoznsz3dj.jpg.html][IMG]http://i261.photobucket.com/albums/ii64/BeerJ/20160813_1848001_zpsoznsz3dj.jpg[/IMG][/URL] Here's the axle end. Nothing special but I at least want to make the truss continue down to the link mount. They're both 3/8th so it should blend together pretty well.

I think the artec truss puts the ram too high. Maxes out the rod end and the link contacts the truss long before it reaches full stroke. I may end up moving the links on top of the arms and making them triple sheer.
