Good thing your boosting it 30 inches of travel requires lots of power. Looks good
That thing will look sweet aired out over some sand!
Ridukurous.
So much schwing...
Got final measurements on beams and they cycle 22" clean. I have plans this winter to cut the fire wall which will give me 2" more uptravel. I built the bumps with a spacer already so when time comes I can take spacer out and bumps will move up. And then can cycle 24"
Dude that's insane. Nice works of works.
So much boner right here...
Agree
Speaking of that... I hear there are some sharpie drawings under there somewhere...lol
At this point I'm assuming the "members" are all under that paint...
Is it going to be drivable by Dunefest?
That is the goal.
Making progress. Working on plumbing brakes and trans coolers. Waiting on more braided line to finish trans and need to plumb rear brakes yet
Just need 2 unions and 2 banjo bolts and brakes are all done. Hoping some parts show up tomorrow and need to find some on return fuel rails at a pick and pull and I can finish fuel system
Still working on it. Brake lines and limit straps on. Trans lines and fuel lines have all been plumbed.
Are those straps being ran by anyone else out there? Look too light for what you want to do. I have 16" PRP douple straps, 2 sets on each corner. They stretched about 1/2 an inch after the first few unloads of the suspension.
A friend has single straps like those on a jeep crawler. We had to move the brackets after the first weekend out due to the stretch.

Actually I thought the same thing. So I ordered another set of all the straps so I will run double straps at each corner. I ran these same brand straps on my blazer I had and held up solid front axle fine but wasn't off the ground as much as this hopefully will be. And I did account for stretch on the straps when I mounted them. Went with rule of thumb I have heard from jesse of 1" of stretch for every 12" of strap.
