the waiting is the hardest part

Getting a crossmember made for the Centermount radius arms

Progress on the crossmember, need more material but getting there slowly.

Radius arm will be mounted in plane with the crossmember and obviously won't be on top of the beam. So it should be a pretty flat angle which will attest to nice road manners.

First suspension cylce done tonight. EVERYTHING clears at ride height AND full bump at lock-to-lock. Very pleased with myself and my first ever suspension design outcome. Full speed ahead.

Progress progress. Will finish up the beam mounts and control arms while waiting on shocks. Then mount shocks, then do steering.

Progressing nicely. Definitely has flex. Should be good for them jumps.

Indeed! Although I'm hoping for smoothness more than anything

Started the engine and beam mount crossmember. Then got side tracked and accidently made half the steering system lol.

Thank you sir...

Its still slowly coming along. Had to buy some tools and materials. 

[Comanche SS]

Steering mocked up, need to bend a couple of them and do a little bit of clearancing. But I do have a decent angle on each tire.

Should have clarified, 21'' metal to metal, will strap around 19-20 likely. Still more than enough

[Comanche SS]

Lots has happened since my last build update, I have been in crunch mode to get it done...and I am happy to say I got it out for some driving and glamour shots...More work to be done, but its on its own weight and under its own power. 

[MancheKid86]

yeah... this is pretty sick!

 

great work

[89eliminator]

i can't believe you lifted a 2wd Jeep!!!! 

 

looks great can't wait to see it with some air under the tires.
