We didn't use any chromoly, just DOM tubing. The plates are all cut from PNO Sheet, .125 and .1875.





The pannard bar looks really goofy outside of the vehicle. The upper link bar runs through the big hole in the bar.

I guess its sometimes stated as P&O, stands for Pickled 'n oiled. Basically Hot Rolled sheet or plate that comes without the mill scale coating and such. It provides a better finish and makes it easier to powdercoat or paint once finished building.

Here's the way we kept the stock electronically controlled shocks on the rear.
