[QUOTE="tj40ounce, post: 949402, member: 16007"] The updates from the weekend.... One step forward & two steps back. The more I work on it the more I want to do to it. After cutting the frame off behind the rear wheel well, I worked on getting the ride height established... Here it sits at 25" belly clearance. Should be able to keep ~6" in the rear. [img]http://img442.imageshack.us/img442/6123/july2007018bm2.jpg[/img] After getting the rear where I wanted, the front needed to come down ~3" or so... IFS frame + high steer + leaf springs = one tall front end... I'm now going to run a 3 link with panhard & full hydro instead of hydro assist. Gotta save up for another set of Air shocks.... My 2.5 year old wanted in the pic.. Plan is to rework the front frame section & motor mounts to get some much needed uptravel. [img]http://img263.imageshack.us/img263/3891/july2007023us6.jpg[/img] Side shot... I'm a little worried that the extra wheelbase I gained from moving the axle forward will negate the low COG...
