it worked pretty good, some more shock tuning and it will work real well

Yes, backhalf, BTF 3-link, coilover/bypass/bump at each corner. redid his old engine cage as well and swapped his old beam setup for some Threat Motorsports beams and radius arms.

more pics in a few minutes. I just wanted to get a thread started this morning and then realized I have pics in several places, haha

That upper rear link looks BEEFY BEEFY overkill city, very nice

who did the steering? Threat?

I hope his cab cage is up to par with all those performance upgrades! Nice truck and nice 3 link!!

Thanks a lot! yes, the rear wishbone is kinda ridiculous, all 1.75" x .120 wall, but they take tons of sideload force, so why not overkill it, right?
the steering was all built by me (BTF)

X2 from the couple times i saw the truck too

awesome ranger =p

So when is the back half on Seans Explorer gonna start?

...Sean's motor took a dump...

ummmm yeah that why i said that.^^^^ it would be a perfect time to do it while it is down for the motor issue

no back halfing for the explorer. There's no need for it. Its sitting till around March anyways.

That thing is sick!!! Great work!!!

Thanks for all the positive responses guys. I'll try and post up more of the projects I'm doing on this forum. I've been a member for a while, just don't post up much since most of you guys seem to be into the crawly stuff.
