How does the Panhard mount attach to the rear axle?...assuming you can use a stock rear-end.

Any info you can give out on chassis stiffening that you have in the works? Looking at buying a porterbuilt one but will wait to see your plans. Thanks

The completed rear suspension (with a few pieces of 1"x1" to prop it up for the pictures)

The panhard mount is integrated to the driver side frame mount. The other end is a bracket welded to the axle tube. We had planned on selling this as a kit completely welded with a 9" housing and axles. If you wanted to use a stock 10 or 12 bolt, we can probably accommodate that. I would have to check some dimensions. I think the mount should be fine. The extra strengthening gusset may get into the cast center portion of the 10/12 Bolt housing

Amazing as usual. With this bolt on kit, how similar will the ride height be in comparison with your full frame trucks like the Craftsman truck or the original orange and white truck? What size tire can you run up front?

On this truck, we are currently doing a simple trans crossmember and keeping the stock center crossmember in place. We have made a bolt on bracket that will act as an exhaust port in the stock center crossmember. We have plans for a more elaborate cradle style center crossmember in the near future.
