Here are some pics of how our chassis was done… The frame rails were done in OE manner… I use fabricated torque boxes with as much bending that we can do.. We tried to optimize as much as we could so that we could reduce the welding.. Not as smooth & clean as other chassis that other companies do but was not working towards that.. just looking for a chassis to replace original with JCG suspension…
Here is a shot of how we attach the rear links.. Since Scott never jumped back in to tell me what was similar to the Ironworks Chassis.. This is the only part of our chassis that might be similar.. But I was doing leaf spring re-location kits on Tri-Fives to chassis’s that Danchuk sells.. about 8 years ago.. I like it because it keeps things out of the way..
The reason we are doing our own chassis & suspension.. because here @ JCG we have no boundaries on what we can design, machine, or build… We just look @ something and set our direction to build what we think is best for our applications.. When we run into issues .. We just look @ the problem & do what it takes to make it right for us & our customers… I currently have about 12 months of design time into all the suspension/chassis.. huge financial commitment on my behalf.. but has been well worth it.. I am just blessed with a great crew that can get the job done…
