Suspension Flex

Got any articulation? Lets see it. I won't sticky this one as it may not see the traffic that worst stucks does, but if It does then that can always be changed.

All of these are with disconnected front sway bar, NO torsion bar crank.

Triangulated fourlink with 14" King coilovers up front on a Ford HP D44.
Rear is 63" Chevy leafs with custom shackles and 12" Bilstein 5150's on a GM 14 bolt full floater.
I'm changing the rear soon. The 5150's just can't keep up so i'm going with 12" 2.5 smooth body res. Kings and new mounts throughout.

pure ****!

he means .... bitchen

wow... impressive for sure. hows it ride/handle on pavement?

On pavement...drivable but not so's you would want to drive it everyday.
There is no track bar because the links center the axle so bump steer is a bit of an issue as the drag link cycles up and down with the suspension.
There is no sway bar so body roll is everpresent.
It handles well enough at highway speed up to about 80 or so. I haven't gone any faster than that since the change.

It's still very streetable but i still don't hesitate to drive the work truck or my wifes car on long trips.

That truck is bad ass!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Beautiful job on that thing. All I can say is DAMN!!!

That some serious flex up above... Here's me showing the Ford guys up at work a couple weeks ago... not 1 ford guy would even attempt!

and heres some more... as a referance. im 5'11" so the snow bank was right at 6' tall. it was mostly ice.

Some of those flexs have the rear tires off the ground. I had a VERY hard time to get mine off the ground. I don't run a sway bar.. could that be it?
