[kajo]

nice build and pics. the suspension reminds me a little of my old truggy and buggy.

How stable does it feel?

[yotacrawler87]

It feels pretty stable on all terrains. Sidehilling is a little gut renching though. I havnt played with oil volume or air psi yet in the rear shocks and the front leafs are super soft (4 leaf pack) 2 RUP and 2 out of a 3in pack. the 21-22in belly helps with a low COG also the rear has 3in compression and 13in ext.and the front bumps at 1 1/2 in the springs ride flat all the timeand allow for lots of droop

[yunit]

Once you upgrade to tons, it will sidehill just fine. :666:

[yotacrawler87]

This winter im 3 linking the front switching to coil-overs all around putting tons under it rolling on 42s and the most important ingrediant is going to be the cummins 4bt and t400 auto box ill keep this post updated when the times near

[Red]

Your truck works good man. Well minus this little mishap in the beginning of the day Saturday. :thump:

Speaking of Jotter's and HREW. Too bad Jordan can't say the same about his ankle. Apparently he screwed it up pretty bad.
