Rear suspension mock up, I HATE waiting for laser cut brackets to come in, so I took my sheet of 3/16"s and some cut off wheels and flap disks and made my own brackets... yet again :crazy:
http://i83.photobucket.com/albums/j3...sto/Dec273.jpg http://i83.photobucket.com/albums/j3...sto/Dec272.jpg Mounted the bars http://i83.photobucket.com/albums/j3...to/Dec2713.jpg Took my mandrels I ordered and got those ready to cut http://i83.photobucket.com/albums/j3...to/Dec2721.jpg Cut and tac'd in place http://i83.photobucket.com/albums/j3...sto/Dec286.jpg |
Now I want everything adjustable, that way I can play with my settings, but again I didn't want to wait for my brackets
so I made these too, then ran out for the other side http://i83.photobucket.com/albums/j3...sto/Dec289.jpg http://i83.photobucket.com/albums/j3...sto/Dec284.jpg http://i83.photobucket.com/albums/j3...to/Dec2819.jpg Needed to space it out to match the axle side http://i83.photobucket.com/albums/j3...sto/Dec287.jpg The bolted extra bushing for spacer and ran out of material for the night http://i83.photobucket.com/albums/j3...sto/Dec288.jpg |

(shown in the 10* spot) http://i83.photobucket.com/albums/j3...sto/Dec281.jpg |
nice choice on going with a satchel link in the rear... that will keep your rollcenter low and fixed.... should make a huge difference in feel and controll over the oem frame.... and good work btw...
|
yes sir, I played with every design I could and satchell ended up winning for best overall. I wanted to get a little more triangulation out of my lower bars, but since I'm setting up air ride as well I don't want my bars much shorter for fear or wheel movement. Should be ok though.

Progress is coming along which is good to see.:thumbsup:
That's some good work man. :cheers: |
Nice man... this build is really inspiring! Makes me wanna ditch my fbody and build a full framed car. Anyways, :cheers: and keep the pics coming!

http://i83.photobucket.com/albums/j3...sto/Dec302.jpg Built my upper link mounts, going to gusset behind them otherwise they are basically done http://i83.photobucket.com/albums/j3...to/Dec3011.jpg http://i83.photobucket.com/albums/j3...to/Dec3018.jpg http://i83.photobucket.com/albums/j3...to/Dec3019.jpg http://i83.photobucket.com/albums/j3...to/Dec3021.jpg |

http://i83.photobucket.com/albums/j3...to/Dec3024.jpg http://i83.photobucket.com/albums/j3...to/Dec3027.jpg As you can see here the holes I drilled on a 25" radius (same as bar length) no need to re thread as I adjust my bar angles http://i83.photobucket.com/albums/j3...to/Dec3032.jpg |
