[QUOTE="crazybluerider1, post: 1567423, member: 17477"] I've been slowly working on getting the suspension where I want it an figuring out clearances and link mounts. I've set it up so that with a 20" belly on a 42 inch tire I'll have 6 inches of up travel. I bought a ruffstuff simple truss for the rear and it was really tall, about 1.5" above the axle at the top, so I cut it down and then I cut apart one of their horizontal link mounts to drop it around 2". With the truss and link mount uncut the mount was above the top of the rear frame rails about 3" now I am 1/2" or so below the top of the rear rails. Got the front axle up into place and it looks like I'll have room to fully triangulate the front uppers. That makes me happy since I'm keeping the lowers pretty straight for steering clearances. There are also a couple cool pictures of an engine we pulled this week in our shop at work. [/QUOTE]
