    quarks, I just trimmed out the windows with 1/8 thick flat and had a peice of Lexan cut for it and got some "tractor cab" gasket. Its the same stuff Kenworth sleepers use on the sky light windows. 55cameo, 3 inches of suspension and 3 inches of body. I didnt want the extra 3 inches from the...

    Humvee, you right I think it looks better like that. It would also help me get some weight off the front axle. I kinda planned to do some thing like that when I do the air ride suspension. I think I will also move the tandem a few inches closer together just to make it scuff a little less.

    Deuce Suspension Mods

    oh just thought, the "non-flexy" suspension might ride harder than you think because it with no weight to make it flex it may transfer bumps from both sides.... Like say a man hole on our right tire would make the left side jump also.

    Deuce Suspension Mods

    Bert, I dont think there is any reason to "cross brace" the factory upper or lower links. they do not see any side to side load nor should they ever. You leaf springs take thins now and you woud need a pan hard bar to keep doing it. Watch out for factory air ride. Most put the panhard on top of...

    Deuce Suspension Mods

    The wind may blow through my cab but I do it in STYLE. Its just like guys taking 32 fords and grafting the body to a new corvette running gear.
