Perfect, thanks.

I am going to start with building adj LCAs for the rear. The ones I have now are like 2 or so inches to long. I'm thinking RE large joint, preferably 1.250 thread, 2x2x.250 and then a 2.5" bushing.

If I get better at welding then I'll make some front radius aarms that are beefier than the ones I have now.

And some day down the line, double triangluation 4 link rear.

But yea, I'm going to start making my own suspension. :weedman:

Be sure to let us know when you will be on the road so we can stay off it.



Just kidding man :supz:

3/4-16 is common for ends. I know ACE has these (coupling nuts) in the hardware section. They are like 2.5" long. I've ordered them from www.thenuttycompany.com before as well.
