I think your coils are bowed because they are seated on an incline because of where you did the cut and turn. My beams are cut and turned on the other side of the diff.

And picked up the tax deduction with 5 hours to spare. Congrats on the kid.

Congrats on your daughter!

The cut and turn looks great so far, it's always something I have been curious about. My one question is, where did you find the dimensions/ specs for the cut and turn? I have an extra set of beams I would love to try this on.

 

[little x]

She's a cute one. Congratulations Again!!!
She'll turn your world :roll:

 

[lifeguard379]

progress!
the gears for the front end are in and the pattern looks good to me. but a second opinion would be nice if my INTERNET would load the pics. i will have to try agen tomorrow

 

[lifeguard379]

ok hears one.

 

[Mr. Steel]

Dude, you forgot to post a side view to show depth!

Anywho, I showed it to my diff tech. He says your pattern looks good. But .004 would be too tight for a rear. Good thing it's the front! It's most likely going to whine for the first few miles.

 

[jordan1948]

This is probably a stupid question to ask but what is the benefit of cuting and changing the angle on those?

 

[lifeguard379]

you don't need to use drop brackets that can bend, and its cool lol.
hear is a better pics of the patern kinda

 

[Joey P]

Looking good, Although I know nothing about doing what you're doing. Can't wait to see how it turns out! Question, how much do you know how to take out of the beam? It only looks like 1" or less there or am I wrong? Also, you have a cute little girl there. Congrats!

 

[Mr. Steel]

Get off your lazy ***** and post some damn pictures already!!!

 

[lifeguard379]
