Looks good! Kinda tall tho! Glad to see where 14" QA1 coils will get me tho. Those are the coil over coils, right? Got any flex pics? Your spring rate is what I had planned on using. How is the crawl ratio with the stock x-case and 5.71's?

crawl ratio is not low enough it needs the trail tough t-case gears. the coils are use for circle track cars i think, i got them from jegs.

That is excellent, I'd really like to see some pics of it in action when you get it out there. I love seeing the home grown stuff verses buying a bolt on kit, congrats on the great work!!!!!!
If you ever do a detailed write up please post it here for us to read.
Thanks
Jim

i don't have alot of pics of the front suspention, but i will answer any question you might have. the lower links all have poly bushings on the axle end and johnny joints on the frame end, this setup helps dampen vibes on the road but also does not bind at all offroad. i got all the lower links from suicidedoors.com and they are 37" long. in the 3rd pic of the radius arm peice that comes off the lower link is ajustable to ajust caster and is triangulated but you just can't see it in the pic.
